    I buy all my embroidery thread from: http://www.metroemb.com/store/. I don't think you can beat their prices and they have excellent service.

    For me it is Floriani and Iris Threads because my machine 'likes' them. For metallics only Floriani; I turn the spool upside down when using and it haven't had any problems.

    I really like the Floriani and so does my machine. But it is the only kind I have ever used so am not a good judge of what is best.

    I have been using Isacord Poly for over 20 years. I have tried many other threads and never got "better than Isacord" results so I continue to use it. They don't sell it locally where we live now so I have to buy it on-line. When I have an emergency and need a certain color right now, I buy Robison Anton poly. It is available locally and gives me "same as Isacord results.
