I think many of the companies mentioned in this thread are also buying their bobbins from the same sources. One problem I encounter WEEKLY is people coming in to purchase bobbins and not knowing there are different kinds - even just the basic flat or rounded. And some machines have a preference for plastic vs. metal.
But, no matter what, if it doesn't fit, return it.
I bought a 12 pack of Class 15 metal bobbins, Dritz brand. It says compatible for all class 15 singer machines, but only 4 worked. Unfortunately tossed my receipt because the first one I grabbed worked and I didn't notice until days later.
Looking online at the reviews for it I see a lot of 1 star comments now:
"
They are not 7/16" wide and they are not 13/16" dia."
Maybe its just Dritz then, not Joannes, shrug.
