I always use mine. On my Bernina there is a tiny, very thin hook that goes in the hole of the needle to catch the thread and pull it through. It easily gets bent and doesn't go into the hole of the needle like it should. I have to adjust mine every so often. Have to get the magnifying glass to do it.
