About this deal

Manual feed strimmers require you to pull new line through by hand. Naturally, there are advantages and disadvantages to this. You need to make sure that the strimmer is completely off, and uplugged/not able to turn on before manually adjusting the line. It’s also a messier process than other line-feed options. However, you can have total control over how much line is used, and you don’t have to rely on a sometimes-unresponsive bump-feed system. However, if you’re only going to be doing lighter tasks, such as cutting through grass and weeds, you can choose a strimmer head compatible with round line . Some strimmer heads are compatible with both round and square line, making them particularly useful if you have a range of tasks to complete.

Automatic mechanisms can be particularly inconvenient if you are using a cordless strimmer because you will likely turn the unit off while you move around the garden to conserve battery. This is problematic if more line is released each time it’s turned on. An automatic-feed strimmer head is useful if you don’t want to keep bending down and don’t like bump-feed mechanisms. This can make strimming more comfortable for a range of people. When it comes to useful gardening tools, a strimmer is certainly up there. But the story doesn’t end there, and there are additional accessories that can alter the effectiveness of a strimmer.

Whilst the head itself has quite a robust construction, some customers have reported that the bump-feed mechanism wears out sooner than they would expect. Nevertheless, this doesn’t reflect every user’s experience. The head itself is compatible with the majority of straight-shafted strimmers, although it may not fit on some non-petrol models. Due to the head’s size and design, it does require a lot of power and is therefore best used with a petrol strimmer anyway (at least 25 cc). One of these accessories is the line, and the other is the strimmer head. Although the head that comes with your strimmer will likely be sufficient to begin with, there may come a time when you need to use a different one, or it simply needs replacing. Some strimmer heads are compatible with both round and square line, whilst others are specific to one type.

A useful strimmer head to buy on a budget, the Trueshopping Bump Feed Strimmer Head is a cheap but reliable replacement. When it comes to the line feed mechanism, you’ll have to choose whether you want an automatic feed, bump feed or manual feed. If you’re working on a budget, choose a manual or bump feed strimmer head. These ensure you won’t use more strimmer line than you need.

Although this strimmer head is compatible with a lot of strimmers, it is quite large and needs to be used with machine with sufficient power; it will fit most straight shaft strimmers over 33 cc. There’s no need to take the head apart to secure it in place and it is easy to fit with the five screws provided. Blade heads that describe themselves as ‘universal’ are generally compatible with the majority of strimmers; however, there are some important factors to bear in mind.
