I find that the DMC threads get a little knobby and worn looking when I use it in quilts but I haven't found a better alternative.
As for sewing? My Janome hates Coats and Clarke. Loves Gutterman and Mettler. I bought a cone of Connecting Threads and while I found it to be a bit heavier and not so easy to rip out (LOL), it works well too!
