Once again your testing is changing my buying habits. I was using the Echo trimmer line. That's the last pack of that I'll be buying until they upgrade the product. As you said in the beginning, stopping the cutting operations to deal with string issues is a pain in the rear and is something I'll pay extra to avoid.

Trimmer line pro tip : Whatever particular line you're using, make sure its hydrated. Submerge the entire roll n water overnight. You will be staggered by the improvement in performance strength and durability.

I run the Husqvarna XP Pro, I have a Shindaiwa T302X 1.8 hp that I cut with. Run it wide open from the start till I run out of gas so I can time study when I want to. The XP Pro cutting 6 inches to 2ft 6-inch weeds I get about 1 hour 20 minutes run time, with other lines I only get about 1 hour to 1 hour and 5 minutes run time. Also don't get the vibration out of the XP Pro that I get from most other lines{twist, square, and other lines in general. The extra run time per tank may not seem like a lot but it adds up to $ over the course of a day or week. It cuts great for me.

The amount of time and frustration and money you have saved me is substantial. I can't thank you enough. Great job!

@@ProjectFarm Should have tested: Bump feed reliability, ease and speed of reloading the line, cutting performance/durability when used to cut plants, not foam tubes, stretch tests and belt sanders. Too much lab testing, not enough real world testing. I bought the twisted line for my landscaping business, in reality the stuff is terrible. The twisted design makes it really annoying to reload, would not bump feed as reliably as conventional line, the ends constantly fray leaving it with terrible cutting performance. I threw it away only half way through the packet as the performance was too low, gone back to the cheap regular stuff - much better.

And you can try to put them in and pull them out put them in pull them out and still nothing so you have to send them back. But one thing about the water filters, is the fact that your refrigerator has a built in computer program and after so much water goes through it comes up with a light on that says change your filter. But you can easily just mash the reset button whether or not you have changed the filter or not and it will go on another amount Of time or amount of use and tell you to change it again. I sure do get tired of having the refrigerator change filter light come on and then put in faulty filters.

Bought a Stihl fs56 yesterday and used the line it came with. That line kept breaking into smaller and smaller lengths, also it kept freezing in the head - trimmer line weld. I saw this test and review and bought Husqvarna line today. I like it! It cuts well, didn't keep getting smaller by the second of use, and I didn't get trimmer line weld inside the head with it (I must have taken the reel out and re-wound the line half a dozen times in a day's use with the line it came with). The Stihl runs like a charm with one of your top rated lines. Thank you for your excellent work reviewing trimmer lines!!! It has helped me, and I'm confident it will help others.

It's because PF smirks when he says it, thinking back to all the bogus claims he's seen throughout the years.

Really Great testing as always! I bought a new Makita trimmer this year and made the switch to battery. I bought the same Oregon Grey "Magnum" Trimmer line you tested here. I ALSO bought the BLUE Oregon "PLATINUM" trimmer line. It is shaped like 4 rounded pieces fused into a square twisted pattern as viewed from the end. I would LOVE to see How it preforms . I believe This is Oregons Best Trimmer line. I am very impressed with the Husqvarna and Twisted which I had never heard of before. Thanks again. Paul

I have used echo crossfire for years. Not anymore. As a side note Chicanic had a tip about trimmer line becoming brittle over time due to moisture loss. I tried soaking my old line in a bucket of water. It definitely extended the useful life of the line.

I agree 100% with L. Lynch. When 'it's' the best in group give it 5 points, down to 0 points for worst. Then in your ending summary, go from highest grade to lowest. P.S., I love the thought process (and sooo much time and equipment) that you put into each testing project. Thanks!

That's another good point that I'd forgotten to mention Tom. This way we can see the collective average scoring for each of the different items. Once more, the quality of the content is superb.

You made an interesting statement near the end of the video talking about the trimmer along the fence line! 2 things I learned over the years if you weed whack often you need minimum RPM to cut the next session of weeds or grass which in turn saves the trimmer line which last longer and save gas. Have a 250-foot ditch line I used to cut and have to bring the gas can with me and extra round of string! No I use quarter power I can do the ditch and the whole yard all in one session with no extra gas and no extra line! It's the user that makes the difference!

My HVAC guy said not to use the extremely fine filters because the reduced airflow can make the fan motor work harder, possibly shortening its life. Maybe that could be part of your tests, although I have no idea how you'd quantify it.

I've tried a lot of different trimmer line over the years, and my quality need is line breakage. It really burns me to shut down and retrieve the line from inside the spool. That all changed quite a bit when i read about soaking the line in water overnight to bring back line strength. IT WORKS I don't know what manufacturer stated this, but I do this regularly, and store the line in a cool dry basement out of the sun. I Love the testing you do and keep up the GOOD WORK.

Great video! Your creativity in coming up with tests that have high measurement validity is impressive. I used to work clearing drainage ponds using a line trimmer, and we were much tougher on them than anything done in the video. We used square Oregon line because it was soft enough to not throw rocks at ourselves, and the square line reduced the contact surface between lines, reducing welding when the head overheated

How did the RPM measurement in the wire test indicate durability against breakage? Was it a max rpm measurement? Or a measurement of the highest rpm reached before the string broke, which would then show a sudden higher rpm from the short line?

Excellent objectivity on the tests. One of the reasons I like this channel so much.
