Weed Warrior EZ Lock Universal Fit String Trimmer Replacement Head, black

I got this to replace head on dewalt weed eater that NEVER spit out line. Apparently it was a known issue with that model. This head, however, works extremely well. It's light, so far appears to be really good quality, and lastly it was very easy to install and fits like normal.

This new, economical, and vastly improved version of an earlier line adapter is, hands down, an exceptional, functional line adapter! Cut your line, fold it in half, push the loop end through 'til it clicks, then pull it back tight. Done in seconds! The adapter installation is even easier, and very straight forward - unscrew the old; screw on the new!! And, replacing the used-up line pieces is the easiest of all: just push the bitter ends through to the center, grab the loop, and pull it out! Cake Walk!! Great concept! Sturdy build, like indestructible "Tonka Toy" plastic material! Great price! Quick delivery! BUY this adapter with confidence!I have a Toro power head (Outstanding!), and several "universal" (curved) attachments, one of which is my string trimmer. 12 years ago, I replaced the original "tap" style line feeder (that did little else but give me grief) with an earlier version of this line adapter. My replacement line adapter, back then, had the swiveling eyelets you fed your line through after folding each, of two, cut lengths in half. That one lasted 'til just now, i.e.,12+ years, hundreds of sorties, when both eyelets failed at once, (snap!) in heavy brush! Money well spent, especially back then!!

I like the design. However it does not fit my string trimmer as it should. Had interference with the string guard that necessitated a slight mod to make it work okay. Other than that it does its job well. I have never liked a spool fed trimmer. This setup allows string reload change in seconds. I keep precut strings in a holster on my belt. So I can cut reload and keep cutting with hardly a pause.

The original bump-feed head on my Toro 51952 curved shaft string trimmer finally broke for the last time, so I needed a replacement. New heads from Toro are $45. I bought this EZ Lock head, and had it installed in 10 minutes. Most of that time was spent using a tap to chase the shaft threads on my trimmer , which were a little messed up. The EZ Lock comes with an assortment of bolts and nuts to fit many trimmer shafts, and my Toro uses the 5/16x18 short bolt that came in the kit. Once installed, I loaded the two lines, which is as simple as it gets. Push the line in, pull, and it locks. To release, flip the locking lever over and pull the line out.I started with some easy trimming, normal lawn grass trimming. Works great. Now for the big test, trimming the grass and weeds on the back of my range backstop. It hasn't been touched all summer. Tall stuff, and an assortment of grass and woody plants. It ate right into them, and did well until the long weeds wrapped themselves around the shaft. I had to stop every minute or so to cut off those weeds. This is because this trimmer head sits down further from the end of the curved shaft, allowing the weeds to wrap around. The original head did the same thing, just not quite as bad. That's just how it is when cutting tall grass and weeds.Overall, I like this EZ Lock trimmer head. Easy to install, works well, and appears to be well made. Half the price of a Toro replacement head, and easier to load line and use. If it continues to perform, I'm happy.

Makes it much less frustrating ! Fits on 20 v dewalt trimmer no problems . This is a great idea and well executed one . There is a lot less cursing now that I have this . Thank you who ever thought of this . Buy it

Bought this because it said "universal" and it supported the Ryobi 40V. It does not. Make sure you look at your head and make sure there's a screw in the center. If there's not, this is not for you.

I have been using this now for a few weeks and it works just like advertised. It is extremely easy to change the string and a little string goes a long way. I have already been telling others about this product and I highly recommend it.

I got it to work on a kobalt 24 electric trimmer . But I had to use 2 nuts and 2 washers as spacers. Directions sucked but there are decent install videos on the web.
