I have used mine a lot as I am sure others have.
If you are brave, you are supposed to put the ball part down into the seam and push along. I personally like the method where you grab from the back and pull to jerk it and snap and then turn to the front and grab the loose bit and jerk and snap. I alternate until it is finished.(Works for me).
