Mandala Crafts All Purpose Sewing Thread Spools - Coral Serger Thread Cones 4 Pack - 40S/2 24000 Yds Coral Polyester Thread for Overlock Sewing Machine Quilting

Purchased a set of five 6000-yard spools of 40-weight 2-ply polyester thread in black, white, and three neutral colors. I've done occasional machine sewing for 30 years, but know little about the craft. Since purchasing this thread, I've sewed several hundred feet in face masks and dust covers for antique radios with good results and no problems.The thread comes on conical spools, which I believe are for a serger (I haven't got a clue what a serger is. I don't even know if serging is legal in Idaho!) Other reviewers noted that these spools do work on a standard machine even though they're wobbly. I chose to make a simple spool adapator from an empty standard thread spool. As shown in the photo, I ground off the flange from one end of the spool, then inserted it the bottom of the serger spool. It fits snugly and can easily be removed and reused with a different serger spool.Some reviewers commented on lint from the thread. I took a photo comparing the Mandala thread (bottom in photo) to 20-year-old Coates & Clark Dual Duty Cotton-Polyester (top in photo). Photo was taken after the products were threaded through a standard machine and pulled through a universal 90/14 needle. The cotton covering of the Mandala thread is not as tightly bound as the old Coates & Clark. So, maybe it's not the best quality, but for my sewing it doesn't make a difference.Others have commented that some spools seem less-filled than others. I found this to be the case, and estimated the discrepancy by weighing the spools. My five spools varied by less than 10 percent. Although some would assume this indicates a shortage, one could just as easily assume than the smallest spool was a full 6,000 yards and the others had extra thread. In either case, the product is so inexpensive that this issue merits little consideration.I'm perfectly happy with my purchase. For my purposes, this will be more than a lifetime supply, and I would buy it again if Amazon delivers to heaven.

Thank you for delivering a quality product, I have used it and reordered for years!Great quality thread

ordered in many colors

Works great, perfect for serger

After reviewing (and learning) more about the thread weight vs the needle size I realized this thread was never the problem. I thought I’d update my review to reflect the thread was only shredding because I was using too small of a needle for this thread weight.

Its thread it sews and comes off the roll without out tangling up. Soft colors

I’ve been buying this thread for a few years now and it gets the job done. There’s been a time or two where there’s been a small knot in there but that’s not a deal breaker.

I use this thread for my serger and it works great! It’s strong, it’s a great size spool of thread, and I have never ever had it break on me! I just purchased another set!

Me gustó, como lo esperaba.
