I love my Red Snappers. It is so much quicker and less painful than pinning. I think it takes some hand strength when you start. They loosen up but are stiff at first. That is something to consider if you have hand weakness. I use them on the backing. I lightly pin the top at the top edge and float the bottom of it. I would definitely recommend them. I have had them several years so I cannot remember exactly how I bought them. I think I went through the maker's website.
