Great product by Shakespeare

Would Recommend

Easy to assemble to my string trimmer made by Troy Bilt. Watch out for left handed threads. It works WAY better that the original equipment.

Difficult at best

Would Not Recommend

From a starting point of couldn’t get it installed, and now after multiple tries I can’t get it to work at all… maybe a gently used return in the future.

I've used this model many times. I'm tough on my weed eater, so I tend to go through these.

good trimmer head

Would Recommend

I needed a new trimmer head for my 2nd trimmer. my first trimmer has a rhino tuff. got this for my 2nd one as I wanted to see which one would be better. it performed just as good. It is quite durable, easily bump feeds by just bumping or tapping the head. Depending on the line you are using, there is no string welding/binding in my experience(I use echo black diamond). Used it for almost 3 hours around the edges of my 5 acre property. Held up very well. I would buy again if I ever need to.

Kobalt 80 Volt max trimmer

Would Not Recommend

There is no adapter to fit the Kobalt 80 volt max trimmer. You will have to get a 10mm 1.25 standard tap and drill one of the adapters with a 10/32 bit and tap the adapter to fit. Be sure and put aluminum plates on you vise jaws to hold the adapter without damaging the outer threads.

Have only used it 3 times, and now it is broken. The piece that strikes the ground has developed two holes in it. Now the line will not feed. Will return it.

It messed my whole shaft up

Would Not Recommend

I purchased this item so it would be easier to load the cord. However, I got it installed on my stihl weed eater. Went to use it it wouldn't even turn now its stuck to my stihl weed eater and I can't get it off. Shakespeare sucks with all their junk including fishing stuff as well.

Works great until the Bump face wears down

Would Not Recommend

Trimmer head worked great at first. However, the thin "ground facing plastic face" quickly wears out with use. After a year my unit has worn through, split and is falling apart.... Grass and dirt quickly jam up the string so this is going in the trash.

This fit easily

Would Recommend
