I've somehow managed to break 2 of these in the last 30 days. Are they supposed to break that quickly? Am I using it wrong somehow?

They're just horrible in my experience. They're mainly designed for pulling sewing thread through a sewing needle eye, not embroidery floss through an embroidery needle. The floss is just too thick, and it breaks the threader. They sell better ones, I'm told, but I just quit bothering with them after the first half dozen. Lol .
