One thing to note about Rite bobins is that you can no longer read the label on the thread that you have spooled up. At first it drove me crazy. If you only have a couple of bobins, that's one thing if you have a ton of bobins laying around with different kinds of thread in the it can be frustrating. I really like UTC thread in the Rite bobins, they have a colored plastic disc on the end of the spool. Red, yellow and green to match the different deniers of 70, 140 and 210. I have taken a fine pt sharpie and marked the edge of the spools too. Just thought that you should be aware of this. Dispite all of their problems, I still will order more. You don't need to pay $25 each for them either. Shop around, closer to $18 can be had pretty easily and less if you really scrounge.
