I concur with the other critical reviews here. This product is defective by design.
The symptom is excessive line breakage which results in the end trapped inside the feed spool.
The problem is undue wear at the metal grommet through which the line feeds from the spool. After some use, the end of the cord wears down 1/2 to 1", but the fatal flaw is that simultaneously the cord at the feed grommet has worn through 1/2 the diameter of the cord, significantly weakening the cord strength and causing eventual breakage near the spool exit point. The cord then retreats into the spool housing, disabling the bump feed feature. As another reviewer stated, it then requires disassembly to fix.
A pox on anyone who sells this piece of junk. Ironic that it is such a bad product that one big box store (HD) doesn't even carry it.

The bump-feed system on this is junk. The worst I've seen in 20+ years of doing my lawn. You need to stop and rethread every few minutes.

I bought this for about $40 thinking I'd gotten a good deal on a weed eater (hadn't looked around too hard)... used this twice then the spool housing wore out quickly. Doesn't look like the replacement spool has the part that wore out which is extremely unfortunate because its construction seems to be a hideous oversight, as least in my opinion.
Here's why: The spindle mechanism which causes the spool to spin and thus cut weeds is a small metal die with very shallow metal grooves. The spool housing connects to this and has a small die opening with shallow plastic grooves. When brand new these fit together snugly and create a tight fit for the spool to spin. What happens though in application is if there is any moderately dense vegetation and the spool does not get completely free, it will slow down but the die will still spin inside the plastic housing whereby causing the spool container to strip out on the inside. Soon, the spool housing just fell off and will not reconnect to the die.. it just falls off as soon as you start it up. I was hoping I could buy a replacement for this but it seems as though the replacement spool just contains the wire/ wire holder. The part that stripped out was the part that connects to this which is not, ridiculously, part of the replacement part. Two uses and my weed whacker is now whacked.
A classic example of a disposable society which we desperately need to get away from.

After I started using this (brand new) ST4500 trimmer, the bump feed failed immediately and then jammed time after time.
If you want a trimmer that forces you to stop, dis-assemble, re-thread, re-assemble every time the cutting string gets short (or jams) -- this is the unit for you.
For everyone else - a complete waste of money.

My ST5400 broke beyond repair 2 weeks after the warranty period expired. I have to throw it out and get another. A different brand next time.
