I like the quality they have stepped up to, and the fact that you can swap it on the spot if it needs warranty service. much more convenient than mailing it to a service center/waiting for it to be fixed if there's any issues (like the big brands)

If they play their cards right and keep this up they can be the new Craftsman. Like how back in the day everyone who wasn't a professional had Craftsman at home in the garage, that can be Harbor Freight. Good price, good quality and a no nonsense replace on the spot warranty.

They used to offer genuine deals, mostly on tools that filled the needs of people who only need them enough to justify a cut rate option. Their premium tools are starting to rival other cheap options, but no longer offer the savings, and they don't have the lineup to compete.

I think the biggest factor in the improvements at HF is that technology has become more widespread and cheaper for the Chinese manufacturers. It used to be that if you bought the cheap Chinese knock off version of something, it was very, very obvious with the soft metal, weak motors, terrible tolerances ect. Now they can copy the better designs more accurately and efficiently. It's like that more and more in a ton of industries over the last 10 years - cheap Chinese knock offs being literally just as good as long as you're not considering all the other consequences of that hah.

My one AND only gripe I have about the Harbor Freight warranty, is it takes about 10-20 minutes from start to me walking out the door with a new tool in hand. Sears with Craftsman tools, it took longer to find the tool than it did to do the exchange. Hopefully Harbor Freight will make it quicker in the future. At the moment, the cashier needs the Managers or Assistant Manager's ID or something to allow the warranty to happen. I know this because I just had to warranty for the first time my swivel head ICON 3/8" ratchet, ended up snapping off the little pin inside that allows the direction to change.

I put off buying Milwaukee FUEL tools for DIY projects when I heard the Hercules brushless were going to 5 year warranty (3 years battery). I like paying half price for the same quality and warranty!

25 years ago it was pretty much unusable junk but their high end lines are pretty decent now. They still have plenty of junk but fairly good quality too. However, their high end line is as high as some of Home Depot or Lowe's decent quality stuff many times, although on sales (which they seem to have every other day) sometimes you can save a little over the other stores.

Even before Harbor Freight had some jewels. I bought a 12 volt Chicago Electric impact wrench that connects to your cigarette lighter or directly to your battery terminal in 2007. It still rides in my truck and has saved my butt many a time. Its outlasted the vehicle I got it for, and several other cars. I got no complaints.

Great video. I would love to see how the Hercules Dual-Bevel Sliding Compound Miter Saw handles!

Fairness to Harbor Freight, I inherited my Dads tools, woodworking and mechanical, when he passed in 2002. He had, among other things, a Central Machinery bench top drill press. You’d need a beast of a bench though because that things could be a battleship anchor! No fooling! Heavy weight. Anyway, this thing had been through a house fire (his shop was in the basement), and the house was destroyed! The upper floor collapsed into the shop. He cleaned it up and it ran fine. After I got it, into storage for several years, under a carport vinyl shelter in New Hampshire, for four winters, the carport collapsed into itself…this drill press was a rusted dirty hulk of steel!! The arbor refused to go down!! Seized solid! I spent hours completely stripping it down! Parts were impossible to find anywhere! Central machinery was in Taiwan…out of business! Well, I didn’t need a single part!!!! Not one! That girl today runs like the day my dad got it!!! A BEAST!! I didn’t even need a new BELT!! He got it back in the days of mail order only. I can’t imagine what shipping costs were!! I never disrespect HarborFreight…yes, they have some cheap junk…because they have grown to a level that ANY budget can go in and get what they need and it works! If it doesn’t, it’s no hassle exchange! I’m a HarborFreight fan, but I have Dewalt too. And several other brands of various tools. I’m waiting now on a 14” smooth bottom Jack plane from Grizzly. FOURTY BUCKS! I know it’s going to need some tweaking and TLC, but it’ll be quality at a sensible and reasonable price! I’m going to grab me one of these…maybe I’ll sell my Porter Cable set and buy the dual charger and extra batray!! 😎👊🏻 Great review…the snow and cold was a bonus!! I live the nightmare!!😁🥶

I wasn't going to pay Milwaukee price for a ¼ drive impact wrench who seems to be the only big name to make one. My only complaint is it is brushed and variable speed trigger only. No speed selector also. I would love to see a brushless upgrade with a speed selector.

I am stocked with mainly dewalt. But if I were starting out and having to supply my trucks... I'd have to at least consider the Hercules line. I have a Hercules jack hammer that I would put up against any Bosch 70lbs. hammer. It's great.

I purchased their new brushless 1/2" hammer/drill last week. I think I was the first in the area as it wasn't displayed in the Hercules section of the store just yet. The four or so the store had been lying/sitting on an unrelated shelf, and I just happen to notice them. I too am impressed with its build quality and its features. I'm not generally a lover of the impact driver (I currently have a Dewalt) as I'm not a big fan of the hex drive bits. They are convenient, but as the video demonstrated, they have a tendency break in two and drill bits wander.

I bought my Hercules drill when it first came out. It is STILL working fine 🙂. Plus please try out the Bower 🦉line to.

I want to see a review of a 12" sliding miter saw. Specifically I want to know the cutting depth on 3/4 material since I make custom beekeeping equipment with that dimension.

That was impressive. I actually considered their dual base router before, but there were zero reviews online for it, so I went with the measly Bosch 1617 lol. Your genuine reaction was priceless lol. But let’s see it run next to a gen 3 or 4 fuel.

A lot of my tools comes from harbor freight. I've been going to harbor freight since 2001. They have stepped the gsme up and steady improving. They have the best sales.

I started switching all my tools over to the Hercules brand . It all started with trying some of the Hercules ceramic sandpaper that stuff eats for real best sandpaper ever all grits and next I bought a grinder it is a beast I've bought the bench grinder too and the 12v impact driver which is as good as my DeWalt so I'm gonna be adding the brushless 20 v. Real soon but all the Hercules stuff rocks and price is on point . Their drill bits are superb for the price and I'm drilling through quarter inch angle iron and metal all day and they haven't burned out yet

I've got a Hercules impact in each of my vehicles for taking off lugs nuts, I wouldn't want to have a flat without one. Done chaging tire in 5 minutes.

Harbor Freight, the Under Dog. I shop there. I think it's great they offer affordable tools and I agree 💯they have stepped up their game.
