I totally agree that it depends on what kind of bobbins you use. When you have 300+ bobbins on your pillow, it is crucial that you can stack the bundles, or you'd never be able to manage that number. I've found that not all paddles are created equal though... I prefer the wider ones made by Simon Toustou, or John Aibe.
