1 Stitch With 500 Stitches - Quick Fix Buttons And Hems Review

1 Stitch With 500 Stitches - Quick Fix Buttons And Hems

I got two of these free from [...] after paying $[...] for shipping.
I followed the instructions very carefully, but neither of the two devices would work.
The device is potentially DANGEROUS. On two occasions the device shot the needle 8 feet across the room.
I threw them both out.
It's a great concept, but the manufacturing quality is so poor that they just don't work.

Buttoneer Refill Review

Searched & read & tried to see pictures of construction of the refills to make sure these "originals" would work in our "original" buttoneer. They don't, but we had no way of knowing that the whole insertion mechanism of the Buttoneer had changed so much and was still being called "original." I'm sure there is nothing wrong with the refills, but we can';t use them in our 30+ year old Buttoneer.

Micro Stitch Starter Kit Review

I'm very short - 4'11", and I am always having to bring my pants to the tailors to be hemmed at $15-25 a pop, depending on where I go (it's expensive where I live!) I got tired of having to pay exhorbitant prices to have my pants taken up about an inch. I thought about using hem tape or stitch witch, and even looked into buying a small sewing machine (I don't know how to sew, however). Then I saw this product, and thought I'd at least try it. I LOVE IT. I hemmed three pairs of twill pants and a pair of jeans today and it took me about 15 minutes. You insert a plastic strip of very small "tacks" into the gun, turn your pants inside out, turn up the cuff to the length desired, insert the needle of the gun through the fabric, and pull the trigger. That's it. Take them off, and use as many tacks as you like around the hemline. The little plastic clips, or "tacks," are very hard to see once you're finished. I used the black ones on my blue pants, and they're barely noticable. I wish they made these in a tan color for khakis. I'll try using the white tacks and see how that looks. I'm very happy I bought this product, though. Now I can probably hem *most* of my pants on my own, and don't have to wait a week to get them back. And, the best part, you can remove the little tacks very easily. This is awesome, because this system allows you to adjust the hem length at will depending on which shoes you're wearing, and it literally takes only a few minutes -- I could probably do it in a minute or less if I hussled -- to hem a pair of pants. Do I enjoy having little plastic clips at the bottom of my pants leg. Not really - I'd rather have them sewn - but on the other hand, no one except me would ever notice them, and it's a practical way to save $$$ if you are constantly having to have your clothes hemmed. Highly recommend this product until something better comes along for do-it-yourself fast and easy alterations.

I owned the original Buttoneer years ago and thought this was the same thing. It is not! It is a pure waste of money. The original had single studs on a strip that fed into the machine and it was very easy to use and very sturdy. This new one you must put the double studs in one at a time, very time consuming. And the worst part is that they are so flimsey they will not hold the button on if there is any pull at all. WOW, am I sorry I bought it!!

WHY can't I get refills for my Buttoneer anymore? To see the eminently useful single needle gun-style buttoneer google 'buttoneer 2' and see the original ad from spiketv website. JoAnn now sells what they call "the original Buttoneer", which isn't -- the new double barrelled one is limited to short weak useless fasteners for only standard shirt buttons. In the 80's, Dennison refilled the TRUE original Buttoneer and Buttoneer 2, with strong nylon fasterners for buttons, & other lengths for home/auto repair, crafts. Ronco obviously sold the idea to JoAnn who pressed Dennison to stop making strong, useful fasteners of varied lengths. The NOT-original-buttoneer now sold really robs consumers. The blog reviews agree, but the as-seen-on-tv spammers push them so far down you never see the truth. What a great product this was and could have continued to be.
