Ordered these after the last spool ran out so are yet to use them , but will be doing so when I next trim the edges of the garden. As genuine Flymo products , I am fully expecting them to be fit for purpose.

The 2 spools came in postage bag separate and in no other plastic packaging. In with the 2 spools were 2 loose cardboard inserts from a genuine flymo spool box, but no actual rigid plastic packaging as the genuine spools come. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and the next lawn cut day I went to use them. They instantly began to unravel as soon as I tried to install them into the strimmer. It literally looked like someone had wound cheap spool around a genuine flymo reel, then slipped a genuine flymo insert into the package with them to give some sort of impression of it being genuine flymo spool. The constant unravelling made a 20 min strim job become an hour long one, having to stop every 2 feet to reset the spool as it did not sit feed properly. Genuine flymo spool fly21 is also of the twisted variety, this spool was regular cylindrical All in all I feel I have paid genuine flymo spool price for non genuine spool. Disappointed 😞 Read full review

We didn't have much luck with the original strimmer line that was in our Flymo strimmer when we bought it and I hoped that buying the correct Flymo replacement line might have helped - but it didn't. Luckily we don't have a huge garden because, at times, you can barely get twelve inches of edging done before the line breaks. I apologise to anyone who passes my garden when we're using it because not only is the air blue, but there's always the risk that the strimmer will get chucked over the fence!

Having tried compatible reels with hit and miss results, I have stuck to buying Flymo reels. Better performance but sadly keep getting more expensive. This is my only negative comment.

Bought a genuine part this time as the last one, a 'compatible' part, didn't last nearly long enough. Waiting to see what this one does.
