I received the product in 3 days. It was 40mt of line cutted in 5mt. May I say it was dificult to put in the spool because seems to be a bit thicker once inserted I secured it in the spool spaces with not problem. However I did same operation for more than an hour as the problem was the wire came out of the spool when trying to insert in the flymo between the 2 silver clips for each end of the strimmer line. It was not easy but I managed to do rather than passing between the clips doing thorugh the hole between the silver clips -like when you tried to insert thread into a needle-. I have a flymo trimmer & power contour 500 and I was very satisfied with the job done. It cut the grass very well and the contour as well. Just be carefull as it is very powerful. I was using long stockings and trousers with garden shoes (not boots) and I do not know how but something hit me twice I believe was the wire as I do not have stones and I bleed a bit. So if you use this wire better use some safety boots Read full review

OEM FLY021 strimmer wire is held in the spool by a wax type adhesive in order to keep tension in the spool and to stop it un-raveling. The picture in the listing shows this type of wire (red with integral thread re-enforcement). What was delivered was the aftermarket (blue) wire with no adhesive which unravels by itself and tangles itself in knots after only minutes of use. I have experienced this with the very cheap replacements in the past. This product is fit for purpose for a Flymo Contour 500XT (for which FLY021) is the recommended replacement part.

Slightly different from the one I ordered but it was a good fit all the same. N ot used yet but I would expect it to be as good as the old one. Took a fews days more than expected to arrive.

Was dubious about buying spurious strimmer cord after buying some blue stuff once and spent more time rethreading than strimming because of breakages. Have to say though I have used this stuff now and its just as good in my opinion as the genuine article, will definitely buy again.

Although very good value, with excellent service, I find it very difficult to take the spool off to rethread it when it breaks. My last strimmer, although the same, I didn't have the same problem.
