    I got about 35min of use out of my orbital sander before it grinded to a hault.

    I've got an orbital sander for sale btw. Great condition. Hardly used. :evil:

    I have the 90 amp welder that I converted to DC (an extra $15 part). I also use the 4" grinder / cutting wheel a lot. I have had both for over 2 years and still working strong.

    Volt meters decent. But the leads just come loose from wires.

    Screwdrivers are great for being free.

    I have their 6 ton jack stands and have never had a problem with them holding my truck up. I also use the small angle grinder from HF and it's lasted me 4 years so far and still going strong.

    Believe it or not I got a better deal buying the lift + jack stands together at Sears, compared to the price at HR separate with the 20% coupon too.

    I have the 44 inch top and bottom tool box (6 years now) and they are fantastic. Just about all the 1/4 and 3/8 extensions I have are twisted at the bottom where the round part turns into the square area for the socket. I have two angle grinders that have performed well over the years. I bought a metric bolt assortment and they are all soft. The folding Torx wrench set seems to be soft also. Multi Meters seem to be adequate.

    Haha It's likely you wouldn't be able to tell us if you did have a problem with them.
