Singer Needle Threader Assistant-

The additional instructions provided by a reviewer are very helpful indeed - they should be added to the product description and packaging instructions. A fine crotchet hook also works (instead of tweezers). However, as a reviewer notes, this device is a help but its not 'automatic' and it still requires good eyesight and dexterity. I am surprised (given a possibly extensive market, including younger children in schools ) that a manufacturer hasn't yet come up with an electronic (rechargeable) needle positioner and thread 'pusher' that really is automatic. And at a reasonable price (this Singer one is towards top of price bracket likely to market well I think).

This device does work, but it takes a little effort to get it to work We've worked out that you have to GRAB THE LOOP, and not the end of the thread. This doesn't magically thread, but it starts it for you, so 4 stars all-round. IT HELPS, and has nice features. The magnetic base is brilliant when you accidentally drop your needle. The thread cutter does work, and is a good flat cut. Don't worry, I do actually recommend this. Sort of threads. Cuts your thread. Picks up dropped needles. Great gift for an older sewer who eyes ain't what they were! If you can get elsewhere cheaper, even better, bit it does assist

Not fit for purpose a complete waste of money

unfortunately I cannot get this to work

Seems to work OK.

IT JUST WOULD NOT THREAD NEEDLES.HAD A FEW PEOPLE TRY TO MAKE IT WORK. NO LUCK. MAYBE THIS ONE WAS A DUD.

Buen producto

No hilvana todo tipo de agujas. Las grandes no entran y las más pequeñas el hilo se le queda fuera.

Read comments to sort out best way to use it. Takes a minute to figure it out, but once you do it is great.

This is a nifty gadget that helps you thread a needle. I think it would fit most standardized needles. The instructions were clear and I was able to get the needle threaded on my first try. Tip: when you place the thread on the V groove, ensure you have enough slack on both sides, ie ~4-5 inches. I didn’t have to use tweezers or slooooooowwwly do anything. Although, I can see that I would have to be more careful if I had to thread something that was attached to what I was working on. I did have a problem with opening the needle compartment, because there were no instructions. You need to TWIST the dark magnet/cap off. Do I need this? No, I’m in my thirties and my eyes haven’t failed me. And I can usually get the needle on, but it is the limiting factor. And it can be a strain on my eyes to get that needle threaded, so I thought this MIGHT help reduce the negative effects on my eyes sight. I also like the magnet pick up (which you can accomplish with any magnet) and the needle compartment (which you can use pin cushions for), and a cheap 5 cent needle threader usually does the job, BUT I like nifty doo-dads that are all-in-one. I actually found this because I broke my cheap needle threader and I was in the market for a needle holder.
