I found that thread as Joann was closing and I needed cotton thread for a particular project. I liked that it was an assortment of neutral colors as opposed to brights but didn't really care what exact shades I got. They do have a couple different assortments. Being used to the poly thread, there is a bit of lint with cotton thread -- but I wouldn't say this was linty. I've used some thread where my bobbin area looked like a mouse nest from all the lint.
I've used several colors for piecing (both bobbin and top) mostly on my Eversewn Sparrow 15 -- my lightweight class machine. I've also used it on my vintage no frills machine. I have not tried it on my fast semi-industrial Juki, nor have I done any hand sewing. I have not had any issues with breakage or kinks.
I will say I was having a lot of thread break issues for a couple of days with the So Fine recently on the Juki. Once I switched out the needle (which had been fresh) those issues were done. I remind myself that needles are cheap compared to my happiness and even a new one can have a very slight defect.
