3.0 out of 5 stars Necessary replacement, May 9, 2008

The Black and Decker weed wackers with automatic feed depend on this part. After you go through a couple dozen spools of plastic string this part because of wear, or just simply not getting it on completely after changing a spool will break. Few retailers carry this part. Your choice is to replace the part or buy a new weed wacker. The new replacement parts are now black and more durable than the original orange ones. When you order you will usually get the black one, even though the stock picture of the orange part is usually used in the ad.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works great but cheaper at Home Depot, June 8, 2008

When this item broke on my trimmer, I immediately tried to find a replacement part at all of the DIY home improvement stores' web sites. Unfortunately, nothing was listed.

I received this item a few days ago. It was black instead of orange (who cares as long as it works...and it does). It was very easy to install, I simply twisted on the provided spring and inserted the new cap back onto the trimmer and off I went. Good as new and saved me from buying a new trimmer.

Over the weekend I ventured into Home Depot to pick up some lumber and stumbled upon the exact replacement part for $2.99 versus $5.80. Consider calling HD and save yourself a trip or more expensive online purchase. All that being said, it is what it is and I am happy with the item.

The picture of the replacement spool cap looked a little different than the original spool cap, so I was a bit skeptical that it would fit. Once received, however, it fit perfectly. It even looked to be made of a heavier plastic that the original one. Thanks!
