I never knew that these brands existed until I joined this forum.
Seeing as how I seem to have acquired a lifetime supply of older cotton covered polyester Dual Duty thread by Coates & Clark, I will continue to use it. The stitching in the quilts I made over 20 years ago and are still in hard use is holding up just fine. The findings are frayed on the edges - but no "cutting" of the fabric anywhere from the thread.
My older (1960-1985) machines tolerate it well.
This thread seems to have a bad reputation. Why?
I have used some other threads - Mettler metrosene and Molnlycke - started using them when sewing lingerie was a big thing.
