My fabric was on back order. I was given a tentative ship date, which was exceeded. The communication I received during this time and up through shipping was exceptional and greatly appreciated.

Thrilled with this fabric. Must add the staff that processed my order was exceptional. Thank you Catina for outstanding customer service!

No other company has such great customer service and support with the many videos and phone help. After going through the guidebook, watching the machine set up videos and speaking with the sailmaker on staff, the light came on after watching additional videos (specifically the timing and needle height adjustment) to finally get the gib hook / needle eye positioning + the gib point / needle ball clearance just right and successfully punching through way too many layers of sailcloth in repairing my tired jib. No more missed zig zag stitches and shredded thread -- the simple adjustments are either correct or not and the machine will not do the job until it is precisely dialed in.

worked great for laying out a 47' strip of sailcloth for UV protection and new edge tape in the yard and folding and working it all through the machine with the basting tape holding it perfectly in place !! no issues with gummed up needles when punching through many layers of stiff dacron

Exactly as advertised. Sturdy, the right size, the right amount of curve. Good price, good shipping.

Good, strong thread. Melts well when you need to seal the ends. Good shipping. Would recommend.

This is a very standard seam ripper, does exactly what you would expect. Good shipping.

Sample was easy to order. I needed it to confirm the material was installed with the proper side out because it has faded badly in less the 3 months on a boat that's always covered. Yes an installation error.

The basting tape is really expensive. It's also a pain to lift the protective backing. Ordering is straight forward.

I love Sailrite its my go to for emergency supplies. you ship to the UAE which I LOVE, thank you so much for making life easy. Not the cheapest but most convenient and timely. If you had a discount for businesses (especially small biz's) I would use you double the amount!
Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
