I have this trimmer and it's good. Only issue is the bump feeder doesn't move the line simply by spinning. You need to pull on both sides to get it to move. Otherwise, 2 speeds and long battery life.

So you have to stop trimming and manually pull both sides to extend the trimmer line? That's a huge issue! Either your bumper feed is jammed or user error. What good is a trimmer if you have to stop and physically extend the line to continue using it?

Plenty good. I can't say I'm using it wrong. If I knew I was doing it wrong, I would stop doing it wrong. But the feeder sucks from my perspective.
Other than that, it's a good trimmer. It has 2 power settings and a throttle. I avoid hitting things that will cut the line so it lasts the entire use on most days. Not so much for my kid, who doesn't avoid things that cause the line to break. That his struggle, not mine.

I had the same trimmer....I would avoid it at all cost. The head kept getting stuck until it broke, the problem is you can't get a replacement for it anywhere. Calling Kolbat was a joke.
