2XDouble Line Autofeed Spool and Line - Red

Terrible product. It snapped on me so often I spent more time disassembling and reassembling the streamer to pull the line out than I did trimming my lawn edging. It was also wound over itself in each of the compartments so the automatic line feed didn't work because it kept catching on itself. Returned so I can use the original spool and I'll re-wind it with cheap line from the garden centre. The return of the product is also a faff - I can't just take it to the Post Office 100m down the road and have to drive across town because Amazon have insisted on using a Royal Mail label printing service which very few PO's provide. It's barely worth returning considering the cost of it and trouble/expense to return it but I hate being sold junk.

This was not a genuine FLY021 product. The real product has a twisted square section and is about 1.2mm section. This one is 1.6mm circular section and will not easily fit the spool holder and is almost impossible to push between the guide pillars because it is too thick. Also, despite arriving in what looked like genuine Flymo packaging, I believe this was a hand rewound product as it was clearly not machine wound. In fact it looked liked it had been hand wound by a blind monkey.I will never buy another product from this supplier.I have a large garden with lots of edging and for 10 years now have successfully used a flymo contour 500 strimmer with many replacement spools. Until today.Very poor product.

I have been having loads of problems with the line breaking on this new spool, and thought it was because I was strimming too close to a hard object. I re-fed the spool according to the instructions more times than I care to think about, until I finally had enough and checked the spool itself. It turns out that the line has been OVER-WOUND, that is, the line has been wound over itself, trapping the free end of the line under the windings on top - or wound just too tightly. I would return this for a refund, but I have just missed the "Returns" window. Poor assembly, poor quality control. Angry? You bet. If this is a genuine Flymo product, they need to improve their quality control.

I bought this as a replacement of my Flymo Strimmer spool that had snapped. The item is a perfect fit and my only complaint is that the twin spools love to overlap each other. Don't know if this is a design fault or if I am just clumsy.As soon as you release the first spool, it immediately unloosens itself, and I have to rewind the thing back onto the spool again. At the same time, the other spool does exactly the same, and it is not easy to identify which is the upper spool and which is the lower spool. It gives me lots of frustration. Surely there is an easier way ??

Had previously bought line only as it was cheaper. False economy. Once I replaced the old spool with this one my flymo strimmer worked like new again. Replacing just the line I had to keep stopping to extend the line manually. Now works perfectly. Should have changed it a long time ago to save a lot of hassle. I was even going to buy a new one if this didn’t work. But now no need.

Picked up a Flymo from a car boot and the auto feed was broken so this replacement was exactly what I needed. Only took me a couple of minutes to replace, and the wire seems very good quality, it's very thick and so far hasn't had any issue with me using it on grass near concrete boarders, I thought it might wear down but it doesn't seem to impact the cord at all.Looks like a lot of line is included so I don't expect to be buying another one of these anytime soon.

As it is designed for the Flymo strimmer it will fit and it will work. While there is a slight price premium it does last well and works without a problem. I've bought cheaper parts in the past and have them last half as long.

Absolutely rubbish product. The copy version I purchased from a local general store was far more effective but they had run out so was forced to get this product. Whilst using it the line continuously unraveled so I have to stop and find the ends. It was frustrating and time consuming. No way is this a genuine product.
