  1. From the description of microtex chrome needles… Is this accurate? They dull more quickly?

    “This needle also dulls more quickly than other needle types, so it needs to be replaced more frequently.”

    • SCHMETZneedles says

      No, not true. It probably should have read as follows: “This needle also dulls more quickly than the other chrome needle types, so it needs to be replaced more frequently.” We’ve removed it for now, but will check with our sewing educator when she returns next week as to how this sentence should be worded so that it makes more sense. Thanks for pointing this out to us.
