We have one close by... As others have mentioned, you have to take a good look at the items before you buy. I find that their price increases and now the lack of coupons, as they had before, some items are no longer attractively priced... So lately, I have been buying elsewhere.
But before they got rid of the coupons... I got a lot of stuff from them... specially things I would use once or twice and did not wanted to spend top dollar for the alternatives...
Anyway, some of the stuff I bought that continues to served me well:
1. The first
hydraulic table I got. Paid 139.00 for it at the time... Made removing and installing engines so much easier. I did have to redo the plug as the stock one kept leaking, but once that was fixed, it kept working fine.
2. Engine hoist, 2-Ton - not much use, but great to have it available when I need it.
3. Several engine stands. I have 4. I bought 3 from HF. The one that is not from them I got from
Summit Racing... as I wanted one that would work with the hydraulic table... easier for it to go in with the leg setup of the engine stand. Wish I had know, I would love to have all with the same setup.
4. This
mechanic tool set. I have one in each vehicle. For 89.00 when I bought it, it was a great value.
5.
3 in. High Speed Air Cut-off Tool - One of the most used tool in my garage...
6. Butterfly air impact wrench - This compact air tool has been with me for over 15 years and still working fine... I do not see it listed anymore at their site...
7. The free magnetic trays... got several of those.
8.
Transmission jack... got it when it was 59.00
9. Aluminum motorcycle jack... again, got it when it was fairly inexpensive...
10. Aluminum floor jack... I have their 1.5 and 3 ton jacks. On the second 1.5 jack... 3 ton still working fine after 10-15 years.
Stuff that sucked for me:
1. Mechanic roller seats... these do not last long... I have gone through several of these...
2. Slide hammer puller set... break easy, pure carp
3. Pistol grip air shears - carp, carp, carp... Now I see that they have the replacement blades available... I need to see if I got rid of it, if not, I might just fix it one more time and use for cutting paper
Many more tools that I could list...
I am looking at a couple of their rolling tool boxes... that will be my next purchase from them
