Do you have a favorite tool from Harbor Freight? Tell everyone in the comments! You always get what you pay for, especially at Harbor Freight. Salvaging pallet wood takes patience and diligence and yields small slats best suited for small projects. Shopping at Harbor Freight requires a certain mentality too. That said, there are lots of pros who buy stuff at Harbor Freight, especially consumables like gloves and blades… and for cheap tools they can lend out at jobsites with no expectation of return.

If they use it enough to break it, then go for it. If not, then they saved the cost of the more expensive name brand. For regular HF customers this is standard operating procedure. HF has an excellent return policy though, with very few to no questions asked.

Also they have a life time trade in policy on hand tools. Anytime I buy one I buy at least one extra battery. That really speeds up assembly. This one comes from DetroitTom in Tractorbynet forum …. They may have been a little to aggressive with building their business model around unsustainable advantages! I went through and identified all the good, bad and abysmal tools as described by woodworkers, metal workers, mechanics, farmers, DIYers, gardeners and even pond tenders. Keep in mind that an abysmal band saw for a woodworker may just be a good band saw for a farmer.

When possible I included the item number. I put any relevant quotes in parenthesis. Dead Blow Hammer : 3. People really rip on this one. It was jamming on me for a while. I kept trying to oil up the hammer, but it would jam again. Capacity Lightweight Aluminum Racing Jack : 3. Harbor Freight 2. It is used almost daily to air up tires and works great with my nailer and sprayer. Recommend rethreading and using graded nut.

Sledge Hammer with Hickory Handle. Claw Hammer with Fiberglass Handle. I only needed them for one project. PVC Air Hose. US General tool boxes and chests. Capacity Appliance Hand Truck. Just junk wrenches you dont mind abusing. Chrome on your arms if you wrench too hard. Good warranty though. To my knowledge this is the only tool he destroyed with a 10 pound sledge hammer after completing his review. Pretty neat tool, and priced fairly too.

Talk about an awesome stocking stuffer. Harbor Freight has a great selection of LED lights in all shapes and sizes for under ten bucks. Definitely a great value for their usefulness, because you can never have enough light. Again, extra is always good. Harbor Freight's compressors are no exception to this. We would rather pay somebody on Craigslist for their used DeWalt any day. Do you really want to spend half your day working out kinks and awkward bends in your air hose?

Go with a more durable, heavier duty brand. While the specs may match some of the better brands, the longevity doesn't. Save your cash a bit longer to buy a nice Makita or Milwaukee gun. Buy as many of these as you possibly can fit into your cart. While there are plenty of examples of things Harbor Freight is great for, we find it helpful to know what to put in our cart and what to walk past.

We hope this article helps guide you the next time a new coupon book slips through your junk mail and you find yourself browsing those aisles once again!
