Harbor Freight tools thread.

I will 100% no questions asked admit snap on tools are better than harbour freight. Unless you day in and out are using the tools to make a living they are not worth it, and even then maybe not. For what 1 wrench/socket costs from snap on, I can get a entire set at HF.

 

Does anyone know if these ever go on sale?

 

haha great comments, I mean im with the comments that say unless you are a professional that quality matters in the work you do harbor freight should be fine!

 

Most benefit from HF to the luxury brands isn't necessarily in a superior tool.

Snap On wrenches break and snap like any others do. Fit and finish is nicer, and that matters to some. Most of it though is more elegant/comfortable hand tool profiles with thinner stock. Sometimes you have 1/2" of space to get a wrench in, and you can't get in there with a 1/2" thick wrench. The upper tier brands can have much thinner profiles than HF, and better ergonomics.

Benefits that are really only realized when you're using them for a career.

 

Looks just like the one I've been wanting from homecheapo. Specs are all the same. Was recently on sale for $250 but cash is low for new toys right now. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-46...-with-Solid-Wood-Top-Black-7440946R/206839475

 

Looks is all they have in common. Score 1 for HF! https://youtu.be/JFoupWtIKfo

 

When shopping for a new toolbox for @fatfurious2, we went to Home Depot and found some large models already assembled. Looked them over carefully and noticed various scratches and dings, and got it knocked down from $550 to $450 by talking to a manager. Something to think about when shopping around.

 

Thanks for this, I'll have to keep it in mind. While it's slightly less capacity, it's still plenty for me. What really works for me is that I want to put it under my current work bench. Figured I'd leave the wheels off the husky. With some small blocks under the yukon my bench would still be at a comfortable height. Gotta start checking my hf fliers in the mail for a sale.

Great place for coupons. I dont see anything for the yukon's though. But toolboxes are exempt from the 20% off so you need the item specific coupon.

Ive been pleased with both my service cart (5 drawer) and the 26" chest.

 

I got the husky one for less than $200 on black Friday last year. You should wait.

Forgot to ask where you ended up finding the deals... weekly add?

Where'd the 10% off come from?

 

From home depot to me.
