Yes, the line did keep snapping, every few seconds of use. The flymo line supplied was completely naff, total rubbish. However, I'd also bought a pack of B & Q's own 1.5mm line (the blue stuff), so after a very frustrated hour or so (containing maybe 5min strimming), I stripped the original line off and replaced it with B & Q's own. End of problem! I believe the machine itself is a well-made robust product, it's just that the line is a spider's reject. Change the line!
