Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Fiskars 55217097 Travel Sewing Kit

Customer Review: Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars

I just received my little Travel Sewing Kit this afternoon and am thrilled. It's exactly what I have been looking for. The blue case folds and snaps close and is very similar in size, durability, and functionality to a powder compact. It's already found a home in my laptop bag.

Includes:
-Cute Blue Case
-Scissors
-Tweezers
-3 Straight Pins (on a cute little pin cushion)
-3 Needles
-Safety Pin
-Needle Threader
-2 Snaps
-2 Buttons (small, white/clear)
-Thread (White, Off-White, Red, Yellow, Dark Blue, Black)

Customer Review: It is what it is.
Summary: 4 Stars

Cheap plastic? Check. Mediocre tools? Check. Under five bucks? Check.

I would certainly not recommend this as a main sewing kit, but as a travel kit, emergency supply, or even college dorm kit, it's just fine. It has multiple needles, colors of thread, scissors (that, let's face it, couldn't cut butter), a needle-threader, extra buttons and snaps, and a few other supplies. It may be super-cheap, but it gets the job done well enough. Just don't rely on it too heavily, because a masterpiece of engineering and manufacturing it is not.

Customer Review: NOT FISKARS BRAND!
Summary: 1 Stars

The sewing kit I received looks exactly like the one in the picture, but it is NOT Fiskars brand, which is why I bought it in the first place. I saw it and thought that Fiskars would make a good travel sewing kit. This is a cheap, made in Taiwan sewing kit by some company called Dura Sharp. The scissors (what Fiskars are world-famous for) will not even cut thread! This is a really cheap kit that belongs in a 99¢ store. I would NOT recommend this to anyone!

Customer Review: Great value!!
Summary: 4 Stars

This little guy is SO handy! The price makes it very practical to put a kit in each vehicle and in different places in the house, so you are always prepared to fix a small wardrobe malfunction! The quality is also very good for the price.

Customer Review: Overpriced, but convienent
Summary: 4 Stars

This little sewing set is great! The scissors actually cut the string. It provides a few different colors of string. Also, everything snaps into place and stays put. This is the best thing about the sewing kit.
