    My local HF sold out of gloves for the very same reason.

    Does anyone have the predator series pressure washer? Looking at getting one and wondering if I should stay away from HF for this and get another brand.

    Nothing too exciting... maybe a little rust
    I have the 3100psi 2.8gpm model and it worked great for me last summer when I bought it. I haven't fired it up this year so I can't say how it handles being stored for the winter but so far I have been happy with my purchase. I also know the predator engines are basically Honda clones so you can get Honda replacement parts if the engine has issues.

    I have the Portland one. It's been working forever with no issues. $79.99 and it cleans my cars, acts as a foam cannon, and I use it for the stone + exterior of the house.

    Bought this when we got the new house in NC. Does what its supposed to do. Drawers don't line up to well and the rollers suck but for what its used for and the price it does the job.

    Their $14 2 piece step drill bit aka unibit works better then the $40-$50 unibit from Milwaukee, Irwin, and Klein Tools :thumbsup: 20+ years in construction proves it.

    That’s good to know. Only needed one for a couple projects so got a HF one. Planned to upgrade down the road but maybe I’ll run some tests through other materials first.

    I haven’t had any issues with my HF step bits. Except my coworker borrowed them for a job and didn’t give them back until a month and a half later and one of the bits was missing.


    Sigh.

    It's one of their legit piece of tool that's far superior to the name brands. You can get 3 sets for the price of one name brand. It also outlasted my Klein, Milwaukee, and Irwin brand step drill bits.

    I have it and it works good. Just seal around the top inside rim where the plastic meets the stainless tub with silicone sealer to keep any water from getting inside. It cleans brass nicely.

    Dammit! Still no sale on the Predator 22 vert. shaft motor. (I'm miserable, you'll can suffer with me)!
