I read the entire thread "Who's in love with their string trimmer?" and there was minimal mention of the head itself.
Of the various trimmers we've had over the years, both electric and gas, the trimmer head always seems to be the biggest PITA.
The "Bump and Feed" style never semed to work efficiently and were a pain to reload. The pre-cut snap-in cords were also a bit of a pain. We currently buy the spools and cut our own for the replacement head on our gas trimmer, but loading them doesn't seem as easy as it should be.
The reason I ask is that my 16 YO daughter is taking over her brother's lawn mowing clients and will need to use the trimmer on a regular basis. My son always hated fighting with the trimmer head and I know my daughter will too.
Since I won't always be around to help her, I'd like to get her a trimmer head (preferably Bump and Feed) that actually works.
Any ideas?
