I haven't found that problem with mine yet. I used it not long ago to trace on dark brown fabric. If I used it a lot or needed a bigger surface area I'd buy a nice light box designed for applique.
The problem I've found with using the plastic inverted tub is the bottom is not flat. Glass dishes have a logo pressed in the glass right in the middle of the bottom.
