What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
It really lasts and packs a punch. The line is pretty durable and lasts well cutting grass. But soon goes if you are trimming anything that is harder such as round paths when you tend to catch the slabs or harder surfaces.
Used as a replacement for the st5530 black and decker strimmer. Easy to follow instructions. It fits black and decker strimmer perfectly.
The line feeds though much more smoothly using the automatic feed. Yes, it's a bit dearer, but the hassle it saves!
Cons
First time i use it for edging 2 lawns & the reel is empty. Central bore is ~0. Autofeed mechanism doesn't work properly with this reel.
