I am so fed up with most of the new bobbins that aren't made well...etc. Avoid buying bobbins at Wal-mart and JoAnn's, they are generally garbage.
I buy vintage bobbins whenever possible.
I have found that if I buy new bobbins from a dealer, they are great and work like they should. I bought a Pfaff 60 treadle machine, it came with 1 bobbin; thankfully my Pfaff dealer had just what I needed.
My vintage Bernina bobbins would work fine in the bobbin case, but it wouldn't fit the pin on the bobbin winder so that I could wind a bobbin on the Pfaff.
