What Customers Are Saying
The Kobalt trimmer line has received mixed reviews. Many users find it easy to use and effective for light trimming, but some report issues with the line being too thin or weak, leading to frequent jamming and breakage. The replacement spools are also considered overpriced by some customers. While the product may work well for basic trimming needs, those with more demanding yard work may want to explore other trimmer line options.

Would RecommendThis should have been in stock at the local Lowe's but was not.
Overpriced
Would Not RecommendWay overpriced for how much you get, compared to other brands.
make sure of the size you're ordering.
Would RecommendIt's the right fit and it's not super fragile (but it will break if you get too close to a fenceline). It's also pretty darned expensive but just about everything is these days. It does the job and that's enough for me
Great product
Would RecommendThis makes it very easy to replace the cord! It was the first time that I have tried to replace one and I did it right the first time!
Better gray plastic wire, lasts longer now
Would RecommendNew batch uses a sturdier gray plastic, not the old blue (pictured). Still expensive, but lasts longer. I can do my entire perimeter with a couple of clicks. At this rate these 3 spools will last all year, if not longer.
Wrong Cartridge!
Would Not RecommendDespite providing the make, model, and serial number of the edger, I was still sent the wrong cartridge. I’m going to have to return the edger I bought in June, and have been unable to use since cartridge that came with it was used up, since I am unable to purchase the cartridges for it to work. Highly dissatisfied!
Lowe's stands behind their sponsored products...
Would RecommendHave yet to use them, however, installation seems awfully easy without string getting tangled or loose!
