Good Points
Looks good, well balanced
Bad Points
Poorly designed line feed
General Comments
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.
