DON'T DO IT! Don't purchase the needle that threads itself!
ok - like so many others with failing eyesight, I thought this would be something that would be a great idea!  I purchased a set of 8 (some time back and not from Amazon I don't think) - came with a bonus package and I could hardly wait to get them.  BOY was I in for a truly BAD experience! Snags were just the beginning of the problem. I went so far as to actually try several of them thinking, hoping, that it was just a fluke with the one I started with.  NOPE - wasn't the exception, snags was the RULE!  Dull thick ends would have been hard enough to pull through the material even without the snags.  I just wish it were possible to give LESS THAN one star.  This item is stinks!  This is one of those things I'd feel guilty about selling at a garage sale or even donating to someplace.
