on Tom's post. One needs to be very careful and pick & chose their products. Use to be I would not buy any of their electric motor powered equipment. Now I will, but selectively such as my winch. Have one of HF's electric pole saws that I'm quite happy with. However, you could not give me one of their bench grinders or machine tools.I also have some of HF's impact sockets. If I were working 40+ hrs/wk as a mechanic of some sort I would not go near them. However as one who occasionally needs a 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive socket they do quite well. I'll have to see how many I break during the overhaul of my Plymouth.
