Never had any serious issues, but never tried any other brands of thread either. I use a few different distributors depending on what else I need and who has what on sale. Doesn't make sense to me to rely on one distributor all the time. Shop around and get the best deal. =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
