Their better hand tools do have a lifetime warranty. Since all their sockets and wrenches sell in sets, to get a warranty replacement they want the whole set back. You can't just take in the broken one. Just hand them to the clerk and you walk out with a new set. Somewhere they must have a warehouse full of returned unbroken tools. the store I go in the most in my area there is a small area that has I assume returned tools that most of the time is missing like one or two pieces and the prices usually much cheaper... And every set is missing the 10MM or 7/16?

These days they have "OK", "better" and "best" selections of tools. I have a couple of their "best" torque wrenches, their "ok" impact sockets as well as breaker bars, and have had good results.

Most things I have bought from them are satisfactory but I have one of their torque wrenches that identifies as a breaker bar. I should have taken it back but messed around until time had passed.

I like their larger aluminum floor jacks. Easy to pick up and throw in the back of a truck and they seem to last forever.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Their torque wrenches are cheap. Not sure how accurate they are but they seem to work ok as little as I need to use one. I read a article recently that tested various torque wrenches and HF beat the big names and came out on top. LOL

I've got a couple ratchets in my truck tool box along with a bunch of screwdrivers. They really are crappy but I don't use them on anything like a regular basis. Quinn digital torque wrenches, 1/2", 3/8". They sure feel nice using them. The Braun foldable 500w light is awesome, I bought two. I can get light at nearly any angle I want. What I am going to stock my truck toolbox with gets HF Pittsburg quality so I don't lose any sleep if something walks off and doesn't come back.

Timely,πͺ.
Just came in from messing with the boss's van. Started putting the wheel on and sent her for my HF torque wrench.
I've used it before for wheels, it won't click. There is something you barely feel, but it didn't feel like 90ft/lbs. Tried it at 50# but couldn't feel anything. So used the tried and true 4-way and...about that much.
Can't ever do it right, even when I try!ππππ

Ammo cans. Also their little chop saw and a jig from eBay I use to make 300 blackout brass. I have one on the back of my RZR - it carries a bottle jack, several sockets that fit what I need fitted, snatch block, tow chain. It's been out in a lot of weather and so far has never leaked.
