Melissa: El paquete trae varios colores muy chulos con los cuales puedes hacer pulseras tanto para niños como adultos. Incluso hay colores que brillan con luz negra ultravioleta. Ni que decir que están chulisimos y las pulseras son preciosas. Además, trae hilos de colores degradados.

Nicolas Roussel: Aucun effet plastique pour ce fil qui ressemble à s'y méprendre à un fil de coton. Doux, belles couleurs fluo, les noeuds sont bien nets en bracelet brésilien. Quand on finit le bracelet par un noeud simple, celui-ci a toutes les apparences du coton : de petite taille et très serré. Avantage du polyester, on peut le brûler pour l'arrêter. Et comme il n'absorbe pas l'eau, le bracelet garde sa forme et son aspect.
Un fil adapté aux bracelets brésiliens.

Dragonbee: Exactly as advertised these treads are bold and bright. I purchased this pack to embroider on darker colours and it is truly worth while, I would recommend them to everyone.

SherBear0713: I enjoy using this thread to make bracelets for myself. The neon colors are nice and bright. I have zero complaints. When I was younger I could only find neon thread in silk and I'd have to mix it with regular thread to get the knots to stay, so this is way more convenient and I haven't noticed any fading yet, I bought this months ago and started using it right away, I think it's been 6 months or more at this point. I had to write a bad review for another product I just bought so I wanted to even it out by leaving a good review for something I enjoy lol

MadXStitcherMadXStitcher: Unlike DMC's Prism cotton floss, which is typically used for friendship bracelets, the neon floss is polyester and works wonderfully for stitching. Unlike DMC's Light Effects polyester, this is smooth and fluffy, and does not feel like plastic. If one were not paying attention, it could be very easily mistaken for cotton. It does not fray or fall apart the way Light Effects neon does, making it much easier to use.

It comes with ten shades of assorted neon colours, plus two variegated options. Like many brands, the blues and purples do not glow well on their own, but will stand out against a black background under black or UV light.

I find this floss very easy to stitch with. Because it is polyester, it resists fading or tangling. However, it does not have numbers attached, so if you intend to use this in stitching software, you will have to manually assign numbers and import them. This floss does not glow in the dark.

Knightlight: So this is a good product, and I have no issue with it. My issue with this order was that I selected one address and Amazon shipped it to my main address instead. I'm 100% sure I selected the other address, triple checked and everything. No idea, but it's nothing to do with the actual product's quality. They arent the top of the line, but they work exactly the same for projects that arent top of the line type things. I've noticed that a few people thought this was the DMC thread because that's what it says on the tag, but looking at the image will tell you otherwise. This is not by any means DMC thread. It is Prism thread, as it says, and it is MADE IN CHINA. a quick look at the image with the magnifying glass will show that the wraps on the thread skeins say made in china.

LadyDragoness: I bought a pack of this six-strand floss because ordering the 8 colors I needed for my project from Hershnerr's would have been foolish. The charge for each skein of DMC floss is only 44 cents, regardless of color. However, the shipping charges added would have about tripled my cost for the DMC Floss. Unlike many others, I have no option to purchase embroidery floss, nor many other craft items in my local stores. Such things are either not carried at all, or the selection is very poor.

Neutral:
This floss, while not up to DMC standards is also not up to DMC pricing. At the price I paid for this item, my cost breaks down to about 12 cents per skein. Sometimes, you do get what you pay for. The skeins are about 8 meters long, similar the DMC skeins. I was expecting more colors with no duplications, however, in my package, most colors included are represented by two or even three skeins. The included 12 cardboard bobbins are about enough to hold one project's worth of thread.

Cons:
In examining some DMC floss that I purchased for a different project, I discovered that the six strands you obtain when this floss separates are finer than the DMC floss strands... finer...
