Are there any automatic needle threaders that work?

I have the Bohin and it works for me.

I have at times used a darning needle.

I love my Sewline threader for small needles. Here is a link with description: https://www.missouriquiltco.com/shop...BoCvP4QAvD_BwE

It does appear expensive but it has been so worth it to me!

The Clover esk top threader DOESNOT WORK WITH OTHER bRAND needle ...only works with Clover needles. Waste of money.

I like to use straw needles for hand applique, but find the Clover threader a bit difficult to use with these. You have to set the needle in just right. It does work after some tries. I don't like to use self-threading needles for applique - they just aren't fine enough for me. I also find thread (Aurifil) shreds when pulling it through bindings after a while. So I use shorter pieces of thread. It's a constant bit of trial and error!

I have found you need to use Clover needles in the Clover needle threader for it to work its best.

I have the Clover threader and it works well most of the time. Occasionally, I have problems with it not wanting to thread some needles. I may try the Bohin one. I like their products. I've found them to be good quality.
