I've thought about getting a bobbin winder for a couple of years now. I didn't since I've been able to make do with my sewing machine. It came to a point the bobbin would defeat me and run out of thread. I finally decided to get a bobbin winder a few weeks ago. I got it via Amazon.
I ordered a Singer-branded bobbin winder. I figured it should work well since they make sewing machines (haha). Mom and Mama Lola only used Singer or Brother sewing machines and I didn't want to overthink getting a bobbin winder. I might push back again if I did research, besides it's not that expensive.
The order arrived quickly and I excitedly opened the package. True to form I didn't read the instructions before trying it out (hahaha). I used batteries instead of plugging the gadget just to be sure I don't fry it accidentally (Sweetie said it should work). I don't like plugging stuff, so I used batteries. It worked, but the red button doesn't effectively turn off. I had to remove the battery for the winding to stop.
Here's my unboxing video:
After reading the instructions, I was able to properly thread a bobbin. It just took 20 seconds! Woohoo! I was really happy about it. I was able to use it when my bobbin run out of thread while I was sewing (defeated again!). The big difference was I didn't have to remove the thread and redo the needle routine. Yay!
I should have gotten myself a bobbin winder a long time ago. The problem is I take so long deciding whether I should get a gadget or not. It takes years (I have not replaced my GoPro Hero 3+, so you can just imagine how long I dilly-dally).
