Plastic bobbin vs. metal bobbin
#13
I agree with Candace and besides my machine dealer definitely told me NOT to use metal bobbins with new machines and would become a very expensive fix. The new machines are definitely not geared for metal bobbins but he old ones are.

I remember being told at the LQS that metal bobbins are a good investment and are better for your machine. Then I bought quite a few of them at one time and it turned out they worked horribly in both of my Janome machines. Now I use Janome brand plastic bobbins only and I have zero problems. In fact, I went through my entire sewing room and threw out anything that didn't come straight from the dealer. I didn't need the headache.
