The sewing needles are not so sharp and the plating on them is poor, otherwise the rest of the kit is great

Plentiful supplies, but kinda cheap.

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2024

The discussion containing the needles is cheap in quality and was easily broken when trying to open it. Also the thread spools don't have an easily accessible end thread to pull out more to start sewing.

Perfect little sewing kit!

Size: Small (12 Threads)Color: Smooth BlackVerified Purchase

I bought the first one of these when it was a Lightening Deal So that I'd have all the essentials needed for a quick repair when one of my parrots bites a hole in my clothing. Mischievous little trouble makers! Since they won't fix what they break, I have to, and it's nice to have an easy-to-store kit handy. I've had this for awhile but didn't realize until I had to use it today that I've never written a review for it. To the seller, I apologize.
The case is very compact, easy to open with a zipper closure (I have severe arthritis and have a really hard time with any kind of snap closure), and all the items are held in place with individual elastics sewn into the case. The kit is basic but has most everything needed for repairs: assorted sizes of needles, 16 spools of assorted colors of thread [including 2 extra of white and black], scissors, seam ripper in a separate holder [no finger pricks!], needle threader, measuring tape, a few small safety pins, and even a few small buttons and a thimble! For me it's rare I need a measuring tape or ruler but when I do it's nice to always have a measuring tape handy.
I keep one in my purse, glove compartment, and in my counted cross stitch storage box. I noticed several comments about the poor quality of the tools but sewing essentials are expensive and it would cost me a lot more to make my own tool kit so this isn't a big deal for me.
When a friend visited with me for a few days she used the kit and loved it so I gave her one of mine, so I'll be ordering perhaps a larger size to replace it. The only thing that's inconvenient is the kit only came with only one needle threader [I don't know if this one should have had 2 like what I see in the newer sets] and that one was broken. I rely heavily on this tool because my hands are numb from arthritis. Another suggestion is to have less very small, thin needles and instead include a few thicker needles that I think would be useful for something like sewing on most buttons.

Useful Sewing Kit for Basic Repairs

Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2021

Size: Medium (24 Threads)Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I purchased this as a gift for my daughter. I've not yet given it to her so can't speak to the durability of the items. They clearly aren't professional quality but look like they should fill the need she has to do minor repairs for her family. There are 30 needles of various sizes, small stainless steel scissors, thimbles that are quite lightweight, a seam ripper, needle threaders, and a quite large and varied color selection of decent quality thread spools. There are also the other pictured items that may never get used by many.

I was concerned by the negative reviews of the thread being inaccessible so I checked a few in my kit. If you find the correct end, which is usually in the top center of the spool, and not the inner end, which is usually visible under the thread, it unwinds without difficulty. It's not always easy to see but is the only logical way you can unwind a spool of anything, from the outside in.

I'm quite happy at this point, for the content and value, but durability will be the clincher. I feel that it will serve the purpose I purchased it for and would be a nice, thoughtful, and useful gift for someone that is only interested in doing the most basic sewing repairs without a machine.

If I have more information as time passes, I will update this review.

This was a nice replacement to the collection I’ve accumulated through the years, this is compact and everything comes together, I’m not super experienced so this is helpful for a beginner like myself.

Great basic starter kit but I wish there was more deeper green, but that’s just a personal preference. This kit is good quality and has what you need to fix any little snag or tear or hemming. Recommend!
