I've only used Glide since I discovered it. I never have a tension issue with the magna-glide bobbins & the slight glisten of the thread really makes your quilting stand out. When you go to their site, read some of the comments from some of the top quilters. Most all use Glide in their show quilts for that extra pop factor. I love it! And you can't beat the price either.

I have been using 'so fine' - I hated it for piecing because it slips right out at the end of the joined pieces but I have used so fine and bottom line for machine quilting on my DSM and I thought it worked great. I would prefer sometimes that the line of the quilting show, but not the thread. I have not been happy with the shiny look of that 'invisible thread'.
