Do you think it is worth it to pay extra to buy Titanium embroidery needles? These are $8 for 4 needles.

It's worth only if you buy a packet of 100.

That's a lot for so few needles!
The value isn't there.
I had wondered that and after reading cuties comments, I won't be tempted.

I use both but buy them in lots of 100 which makes them a lot less expensive. Also purchase only Organ needles.

I only use Organ needle too and buy them by the 1titantium onces by the 00's. They are my favorite needles

I don't know the company you bought, I prefer needles from Schmetz. Your needles are overpriced, I pay a little more than half for five pieces. I have tried them, find no real added value. Maybe that is noticeable if you have a PR machine, I only have a V3 and have not been able to check the stitch count as I embroider different techniques, and break just as fast. I have tested them once and will not buy them again . . . .

Nope...no chance...I would rather change a chrome needle a few more times than splurge on these... My opinion is changing the needle is better than using these for long periods and I am not convinced they are all that. I can get 100 Organ 80/12 or 75/11 needles, or a mix of whatever I want in lots of 10, for under $15 (freight included)...

I bought a box of 100 Schmetz needles for €5 and don't mind starting a new project with a new needle. And I save the (lightly) used ones to sew on paper/cardstock.
Seeing the price you mentioned I won't try the titanium ones.

I bought a couple of batches. They don't get dull, they shatter. I'm done with them. Some people really like them.

Would be interested in peoples views on this question myself.
