    Good Points: Powerful clean cut.


    Bad Points: Line feed does not always feed automatically.


    General comments: I have used this Flymo Power Trim 700 twice now for trimming lawn edges at flower beds, flagstones and a brick wall. The results are excellent. You can see the edges while trimming and maintain an accurate edge straight or contoured. I have had difficulty with tight turns but I think a little more experience will help. So far the spool has fed out automatically most of the time. When it did stick it was easy enough to depress the line release and pull the line out manually. I have found the trimmer easy to handle and well balanced.

    It is very frustrating and not worth the time effort or stress to keep putting the spool on only for 2 seconds later it to break again. It took me 10 mins each time to rectify!

    My brother and I have both got one of these Flymo strimmers and have no problems with them other than they come with the spool loaded with flymo strimmer cord (kept Snapping). Changed to Husgvana cord, all ok now.

    Flymo Power Trim 700 is a dual line feed system; the line is supposed to feed automatically when the strimmer starts. In reality one or both of the lines chop off at the hub within a few seconds of switching on. Removing the feed spool reveals that, for some reason, the nylon is tightening onto the spool and so is unable to be released. Even after loosening, the line just tightens again. Back to Homebase for a refund I'm afraid.
