We went and made our own weed eater string based off the results of this video! We tested size, color, cut quality and more on each weed eater string / string trimmer line and we were.....surprised.

I’m glad you compared them, you did a good job. My application is 15 acres of California foothills with Rocks, oaks, and barbed wire fence. I’m using it in a Stihl fs131 (bike handle) and KM 90r. I have ALWAYS used the Stihl orange line (.95) I just purchased the .105 Stihl CF3 and that Black Diamond.105. Your test surprised me. Thanks.

Thank you! Truthfully, I was really surprised too. I thought the more points a line had (i.e. Black Diamond) would cause it to cut more efficiently but I think there’s a point of diminishing returns. Also the fact that they made that line color black is beyond me. I cannot understand the logic there haha. Completely disappears at high speeds.

@@TheLawnReview I watch a lot of reviews. And to be honest, they all do not turn out with the same result. In my application I don’t need to see the line, I’m cutting weeds and wild oats that are 3 and 4 ft high. Not straight lines, no yard work, just brute force work knocking down high weeds on the side of a mountain where my tractor can’t get to. I really appreciate your hard work. And your response is just icing on the cake. If you ever get in a field and do industrial, agriculture, or ranch work be sure to post. People like you are vital for people like me because you take the guess work out of what I should use. Thanks again, and keep posting, I’ll be looking forward for your videos.

Thank you! I really appreciate the feedback. Yeah there’s definitely different applications for the same thing so it makes it difficult to provide a totally comprehensive review. I didn’t even think about thicket and things like that so maybe I’ll do a 2.0 review at some point with heavier duty stuff. Thank you for your service too!

Think it's a case of trial and error. I use a Husqvarna 535LK pro combi, I bought extra trimmer heads so I have different trimmer line for different jobs instantly! 2mm is great for grass, but 2.4mm+ is better for the bigger stuff. For edging, I just use the weed scissor attachment. The best trimmer line I've used, was Husqvarna X-FORCE, unfortunately it's no longer available in the UK apparently!😢

Ya was just deliberating on that last nite being on a budget, and going with non name brands on ebay, or brands unfamiliar with. I went with 105 over .095 just be on the safe side... It's not like I shop for this stuff all the time and it might be years before I do it again.... Good video though, I commented before watching the whole thing... Lol...

Thanks for the review. A clearer display or including that chart of the products tested that you showed in the video with names posted in your host comments would have been good as eluded to by other commenters, but I digress. What makes your product better than the Rino Tuff .095 Triangle? I was prepared to get a small pack of the Rino Tuff before reading other comments here. I have finally finished off a 1000' roll of an .080" square which didn't hold up for nothin'! I like the green because as one commenter related, I didn't want to see a bunch of orange bits laying around, and the green sort-of blends in to the grass. If this is every bit as good as the Rino Tuff, I'm all in!
@TheLawnReview
@TheLawnReview 5 місяців тому
Thanks for checking it out. Ours has three sharp edges whereas the rino tuff has softer bevels that bow inward. We created ours to be that specific shape because it adds more cutting torque, almost like little blades. We found the fewer corners the better for reducing breakability. But if you go all the way smooth like a purely round string (or even the Rino-tuff), you lose all the cutting power. The triangle was the perfect combination of both.

Really good review on these only thing that would have made it better is testing smoothness of cut. Lot of them tend to kinda kick back a little in dense grass and i hate it. Probably my number 1 think in picking line cause it stucks when you've got stuff that wants to dip down when you hit a thick patch and scalps grass or just cuts low. I use echo black diamond and crossfire right now the black in .95 and .105 and cross in .80. They are good string but i would like to find something in the middle that's durable and smooth. Hard to get that seems like though thinking about trying a thicker string on a pro torque trimmer to see if the lower gear ratio and less flexible string gives a smoother more consistent cut.
@TheLawnReview
@TheLawnReview Рік тому
Thanks for watching! Yeah smoothness is a great point. I actually created my own weed eater string after this testing based on the results. It has been a beast so far - especially on electric weed eaters. Super super durable.
@zack6892
@zack6892 Рік тому
@The Lawn Review nice. I have thought about today it's hard to find perfect string it seems like. Running echo pro torque trimmer kinda makes it easier to run what is available and get good results though I run mine with .105 black diamond and it does really well. I am thinking about switching to the echomatic pro trimmer head or maybe the speed feed 450 or 500 and going with some .130 though I think the rigidity of the thicker line may eliminate the issue with it wanting to dive down occasionally. Gonna give it a try and see I been wanting the higher capacity on the speed feed 500.

Round line is a 0.95" cylinder and edged line is not really 0.95" cylindrical - only the edges are 0.95. Secondly you do not know how old the line is when you buy it so put in a bucket of water overnight to rehydrate the line. Twist line or sided line will hang up in your trimmer head because there is lots of friction between the line in the head.

Little difficult to tell in this video but the tests definitely weren’t very scientific. A lot of variables at play with no way to validate repeatable results. The “cutting” test for instance depends a lot on line length and head speed, and thus tip speed. It’s difficult for me to accept your claims that the lines were just ‘eaten away’ when you really start leaning in to the tube and the line is clearly flapping around. This is also evidenced by the variation in speed we can hear. You’re never going to get an efficient cut like that when you’re constantly bogging the line down. Clearly some lines will cut better than others but if you’re going to do a comparison video you’ve got to take the tester out of the equation to make it valid.

@@TheLawnReview the title of the video is “best weed eater string: ultimate test 2024 which itself doesn’t even make sense since you originally posted in at the end of 2022, so that appears a little deceitful to start. I made no mention of what brand trimmer you’re using, nor should that really matter as I only mentioned string length and tip speed, to at least give each string a somewhat even starting point, and knowing how string actually cuts (hint: there’s a reason cutting performance drops off significantly as your line - any line - whittles away, and it has nothing to do with the string’s durability). I have zero skin in this game other than someone expecting some honesty and consistency in a “test” video where I only see you pushing your own product in the comments but no links to a head-to-head with it vs other top performers. So, sorry, whatever your intent may have been with this video, it doesn’t inspire confidence in any of the results to me.
