I found CXC floss on sale in some sites and the price is very good, but what about the quality?? Someone of you knows something about it? Thank you for your help!

I have made a small test cross stitch using CXC, but I also use it for other crafts. CXC is 100% polyester, its lovely and soft and has a nice sheen to it. I had heard that is has improved from a number of years ago too. Its strands give a little more coverage than DMC too so this can be a great bonus for some counts and tent stitch. Colour is as consistent with DMC as DMC is to itself (DMC dye batches do differ especially with some colours). You may find your tension is a little different to cotton/DMC but you quickly adjust to it.
I will be doing my fist HAED with it. Considering its price it seems like a very good and viable alternative to DMC.
Packing:24pcs/box or 240/bale or as your requirement

Yes Yes Yes!! Its it!!!
I wasnt able to save the pictures to show you, but the tags on the skeins are the same. So they say cotton, well.... I hope its true.
Thread number is same with DMC, and its a good thing because so I dont need convertion.
My doubt was about quality, because many feedbacks say "good" some other say "bad": I think it will not as good as DMC of course, but the price is soooo lower....
Maybe I will try....
Well Im from China, cxc floss is kinda popular in the low-end cross stitch market here.
First of all, unfortunately it is not cotton thread, it‘s 100% Terylene. So it is easily tangled and roughed.
I never tried this brand, but I heard it is good considering its low price. But you can get a whole set 447 floss at 10USD here, so I think that good is given from a very low criterion...
In China, experienced stitchers are more prefer to use the Rosace or Royal Brodeire floss if they want an inexpensive substitution of DMC floss. These floss are also cotton made and using DMC thread number.
Thank you zhulala. I was really hoping from an opinion from China, because you can better know the market and products. Well, if its not cotton, I will search Rosace or maybe Ill return to DMC, to be sure about quality.
