4mm insulin needle availability/quality

My BD needles were stopped more than 10 years ago, on cost grounds. Understandable given the huge difference between them and the GlucoRX Finepoint ones they were replaced with. I’m now using CarePoint - they’re the only option available from my present GP surgery. Generally OK but can bend quite easily
 
Ok, Diabetes nurse has prescribed BD Viva needles as a trial. She said if they don't suit then we can try some others.
Also pharmacist has given me 1 box of GlucoRx Finepoint ultra to try.
I'll post back when I've tried both with my view for future reference.
Thanks again for all of the feedback, it's been very helpful
