Review on SINGER Sewing Machine Needles, 1-Pack, Size 18, Pack of 3 by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Hit and miss.

My original review had 15 yards of polypropylene tape and Velcro and not a single broken needle. just kept going. No broken needles, no bent needles, just powerful precision. This is the first time I've sewn something this thick without changing needles. A few weeks later I had to sew more polypropylene tape and a more complex three-layer canvas. The singer's needles worked great at first, but when they started to jam, they quickly gave out. I probably went 1000 yards of thread through the first one before it broke. The exchange lasted 5 minutes. The third exchange lasted 10 minutes, by which time I had completely calmed down. I ended up going through 5 of these needles to complete my project. I sewed polypropylene mesh and tarpaulin with a maximum thickness of about 4mm. I then bought Schmetz 18/110 needles and so far none have broken.

Pros
  • Sewing
