Default Cordless stimmers - info please

I have had several strimmers and they all drive me to distraction
because no matter whether I wind my own or buy ready done cord, they
all seem to jam after about 2 minutes once the reels get half used.

I would rather have one with a more robust, fixed line which needs
replacing or a metal cutter but I don't want petrol. I only have a
small area to do (a few yards) but I can't use shears because of
arthritis.

Any suggestions?

I also got sick of spools of plastic. I now have a Bosch cordless (in both
senses) Bought it for use on the allotment, but I'm so plased with it, I use
it at home too. It uses a plastic replaceable blade which are cheap to buy
in packs.
