There's no reason to take stars off because I didn't get what I wanted. This floss is really reminiscent of DMC, but made up of a very safe collection of generally very well-matched gradients. What I was hoping for was a neutral, not-too-red, not-too-blue, violet. The best violet in here is a very close match to DMCs 550. I don't have a lot of DMC colors, but if you want to do a lot of shading or huge ombres, get this kit. The ranges are far greater and cohesive than DMC. There were no wild colors that stood out from the rest.
Hi! I have to say that I really like this floss. As a professional needleworker with over 50 years of experience, I'm always on the lookout for new and interesting fibers. I see a lot of you have trouble about matching colours to dmc numbers. The best thing you can do is purchase the DMC thread colour card, not the one with pictures of the floss colours, the one with the ACTUAL threads. That will help you immensely with colour coordinating. Also, get some Thread Magic. Thread Magic is a silicone that you draw your thread over for smooth stitching. I hope these tips help.

I have been using this for a few weeks now. It seems to be good quality and is shiny and strong. I haven't had any break. It's nice to have such a range of colors as I am making various embroidery designs and I don't have to go get individual colors at the store. The only thing is that they don't have numbers, but in my case I don't need them. There appear to be 2 of each color included. The photo I attached of the bigger design is from KFNeedleworkDesign on Etsy.
This has such beautiful colour shades. Very subtle changes between each shade are included in each pack. For sure I won't run out of thread for now. The thing is that if I do I can't re-order without ordering a whole other pack again.
I have only used no name dollar store brands, Venus brand and J.P. Coats so I can't say how it ranks to top quality brands lie DMC. It isn't as shiny as JP Coats but it has a nice sheen or glow to the thread which really enhances the colours. It is definitely better than Venus and dollar store brands by far as it isn't as fuzzy, limp and dull as dollar store floss. If you are learning embroidery like me, this is definitely a good option for you and quite nice to have all these colours at hand for such a low price. It is nice to also get two of each colour. I am not sure if these colours will last though so best to give them a test to see.

Great product, great price! The colors are vibrant and the floss quality is excellent. The only downside is that the set doesn't contain blacks and greys, which I knew, but really would have liked. That said, order these now. You won't regret it.
I'm highly satisfied with the quality and assortment of colors in this purchase. The assortment contains 120 colors, 2 skeins of each color. I love the colors - lots of interesting tertiary and muted colors along with bright vibrant primary and secondary colors. I'm an artist who creates original works with embroidery on paper, so I'm not concerned about exactly matching other manufacturers color numbers. The only disappointing thing about this item is that there is no color reference # on the skeins, so if I want to reorder a specific color, it would be impossible.
Received well-packaged. Not horrible thread, but definitely inferior. Has a waxy feel, almost like it was in a damp atmosphere over silky.
The colors are also off. Looking at them there are a few that are beautiful, but in a package of 120 (×2), I'd expect at least a1/3 to really catch my eye. And there a hues totally missing where others are overkill and ugly.
Have not use yet but I color fast tested it soaked it in hot water with soap and put it in direct sun to dry on a window sill for days still the same color it was.
Though it's not the best quality floss I had, it is pretty good for the price!
The colors are rich and varied, and the threads are thick. The colors are rather opaque, not shinny.
