I have one and love it. I wouldn't put velvet ribbons in though or fancy ribbons. Save it for twills and satins and such. Here is a link to a Scrap Time episode featuring it:

I have two and love them. Since I got them, I actually find myself using my ribbon.

All of my ribbon that's 1/2" wide and thinner is in it. I got ribbon off of spools, out of tiny plastic bags, and off of cards. I have had virtually no problems with tangling, but since I have two, I don't stuff 'em.

My only warning is to keep them away from your cat. All those dangling ribbons are just too much temptation!

I have one, I actually got it for free at a crop. However, I am very disappointed in the makers of the product. The makers owned the largest scrapbook store in the Northern Ca. first, then began this product line, it got so big that they closed the store. their staff didn't even find out until an email was sent out to all the customers. It also left a few hundred croppers without a place to crop.....very disappointed to say the least. There were croppers that came to that store from probably a 100 mile radius (I'm about 45miles away), we supported that store, maybe to the detriment of some of our own local stores, and they just left us all stranded...employees included.

Most of the people I know are boycotting their products because they were all so disappointed at how they conducted their business.

I'm not trying to knock anyone...every business has to make good business decisions, but you would think that a good business decision would not include alienating and abandoning the very people that helped your business grow.

Sorry in advance if I'm offending anyone. JMHO

I just purchased one yesterday and was very surprised on how much they really hold. I don't even have mine 1/3 full. Enables me to get more ribbon. I just needed something to store my ribbon and it would be easy to take to crops. I didn't know the background on the makers of the item. It's too bad they couldn't have sold the store and gone on w/their business.

I decided I'm going to just put my novelty ribbon from Michaels in it, since you don't get much on a spool and it's like a $1.00. There is no way I'm going to take my SU! ribbon off the spools, there is too much on theirs.

Thanks ladies!
