Works much better than I thought
Would RecommendI am extremely happy with the Universal Bump Feed String Trimmer. My old head had been abused by a co-worker and I wasn't sure how good with would work with my Kobalt 80v. It is great. I have had no problems with it feeding or compatibility with Kobalt.

Garbage
Would Not RecommendThis trimmer head is horrible. The bump feed feature does not work at all and the quality is extremely poor. Spend your money on something better.

Familiar and universal
I’ve replaced the head on my string trimmer many times, the part just seems to wear out with use. My 12-year-old son was able to install it on his own, so you can too! Comes with a lot of different hardware and I imagine would work with most trimmers.

Does not fit
Would Not RecommendUnfortunately does not fit and is therefore completely worthless. Had to open the package to try it and therefore cannot return it. Total waste of money.

Works, but not very durable
I’ve bought those three times now. Seems like they last about a season and a half. It works well until it wears out. Problems is, is the bumper is plastic and wears from basic use.

Not worth the effort
Would Not RecommendThe bump knob disintegrated the third time I was using it and the string keeps catching after you try and load it, which is a fun proposition

Wore out quickly
Would Not RecommendI purchased this June 2026. It's August 10 and the bump knob is completely worn out. I don't use my trimmer commercially, only my yard and a couple rental properties.
