I tried the cardboard-sided bobbins and will not use them again. The plastic prewound cost more, if you can find them, but they are better. Really saves time. May husband bought me a bobbin winder, which really saves time, too. You don't
have to rethread your machine.

I have a Janome 4800QE and have yet to see pre-wound
plastic bobbins with
100% cotton thread. I'm kind of reluctant to use cardboard-sided bobbins and, besides, I really don't want to use poly thread in the bobbin if I'm using cotton thread on top. What has your experience been with pre-wound bobbins? Thanks everyone!! I'll be waiting to hear from you.
