Set of 2 Bobbin Box Organizers

The media could not be loaded. ► Why I like it:These boxes are a Godsend if you have any sort of a bobbin collection, and really, who sews that doesn't. Bobbins are like little chocolate candies – you can never have enough. I use class 15 bobbins in these and the foam cut-outs are quite snug. If you put the bobbin in with the thread end down and in the slot, when you open the case back up the next time, your threads will still be ever so nicely wound on their bobbins! No matter how you shake, rattle and roll these cases, your bobbins are not going to fall out and neither are your threads going to come loose and make a mess, nor are these boxes going to pop open. I even accidentally dropped mine on the carpet and it stayed shut.Rejoice in the knowledge that you can safely take your bobbin collection along with you to wherever you bring your machine without having to deal with tons of tangled bobbin threads ever again. Your sanity is well worth the price of these cases! At this price, you could even buy several and separate out your types of threads per case (plain, metallic, multicolored, etc).It has a nice 5” long, strong plastic hinge that should give a long service life. The clasp on it has a great snap so it should never pop open on its own from being jostled about. You can easily hear it snapping for yourself in my video. Since they are flat, they stack quite nicely on top of one another with the clasp not getting in the way. The almost clear lid lets you easily see what is in it without having to open it up and look. My only concern is that the little hoop for hanging has a fold line in it for those of us who do not wish it to be in the way, but because of that, the plastic is weaker at that point for those who wish to hang it. I think it might give up the ghost at some point because they have easily removed half of the plastic in scoring the bend point.► Dimensions:Exterior, exclusive of tab – 7” x 3 1/2” x 1 3/16”Slots – 7/16" wide, 13/16" long, 3/8” deep in the foam and with a maximum snug slot height of 1”► Pros:Firm fitting slots that hold very well and will also hold the tails of the threads. Decent thickness and strength of the plastic that should last. Firmly snaps shut to effectively hold everything in place with no rattles or threads tangling.► Cons:None.► Suggestions for Improvement:None.► Would I buy again?Yes.► Purchasing Decision & Questions:I hope I have helped your purchasing decision of this Set of 2 Bobbin Box Organizers.

OK, this may sound odd to most of you, but I participate in target shootings sports and, as such, I reload my own cartridges to save money and get better accuracy. In order to reload, one needs to have a collection of "shell holders", which are little round steel pieces that hold the brass case in the reloading press. I have all RCBS shell holders, and the sizes for them are stamped on the side. None of the commercially available shell holder storage boxes I could find allow you to easily see the side of the shell holder to read the numbers. They all seem to store them flat. Frustrated, I started thinking about what else might be re-purposed to provide a better storage solution and came up with the idea of a bobbin storage box.I tried the fit in my wife's bobbin box and it was very good. Her bobbin box, however, is hard plastic and the shell holders rattle around in it. When I saw these boxes with the foam insert, I thought it would be worth the price to give them a try. They are nearly perfect for my application! The foam distorts ever so slightly around the shell holder and then seems to slowly conform to the shape, holding them perfectly in place. The numbers stay facing up so I can easily read them. One box stores more shell holders than I will probably ever need, so I gave the extra box to a friend for him to try.The only concern I have is that the plastic film hinge on the latch may fail eventually. For the price, however, I am thrilled to find these and will gladly purchase another one, if the first ever does fail. Again, you may find this review odd and irrelevant. I thought the product was so perfect for my use, however, that I would take a stab at introducing it to a potential new customer base.

Why did I wait so works perfectly for my class 15 bobbins. No more tangled threads

Easy to organize bobbins with no tangles.

This bobbin holder is perfect for me. They hold the bobbins in tight, so they won't spill out if you drop it. My old one didn't. I'm glad I changed to this one.

Bobbin case very well made. Use case to store bobbins to transport to class and to store extra bobbins. Bobbins are held securely in case and case prevents threads from running and getting tangled.

Even though I queried for the larger bobbin size, somehow I ended up getting these and they were not what I wanted. At this point, I just have to cut into the foam to adapt them to the Bernina bobbins.

Prevents bobbins from becoming unwound and thread from tangling. Remains firmly closed when transported to classes and retreats. I would recommend this product.
