Can't find replacement parts
Would Not RecommendI have a Kobalt 2580-06 Trimmer and need a new bump knob. Can't find it anywhere on the web. Went to store and they have very few parts for their own brand. Called the number for Lowes replacement parts several times and each time the reps act as though they have no idea what's going on. I will be buying a new trimmer, not from Lowes, and it definitely will not be Kobalt. Shame on Lowes for developing a product that I have to throw away because Lowes doesn't support their own brand of produ...

Does not fit original Kobalt 80v trimmer.
Would Not RecommendI bought this item as it was described to fit the Kobalt 80v trimmer. It did not fit on the shaft of my original Kobalt 80v string trimmer. I believe the thread pitch is different because out of my many attempts, there were a couple of times I was able to spin it on and it seemed almost perfectly level, yet it would still get stuck after at most a couple of turns.

Don't Buy this if you have a Model KST 2580-06
Would Not RecommendI was looking for a replacement head for my Model KST 2580-06 trimmer and the Lowe's search shows this a the correct replacement. NOT EVEN CLOSE. While I really like the trimmer it is impossible to find the correct replacement part and even if you do the instruction manual does not tell you how to take the old head off. So now I am stuck with a part that I really can not use although I was able to make the bump line kind of work at least somewhat. Lowe's should be ashamed of themselves ...

This is a critique of the webpage
Would Not RecommendI don't understand why you don't list which models this fits...you make shopping for replacement parts super annoying, which is unfortunate because the Kobalt brand makes nice stuff for the price point.
Thread do not match
Would Not RecommendIt was a waste of money. The old head will screw off and on. This replacement head will not. Doesn't match.
