[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8703768, member: 679555"] The key to shopping smart at Harbor Freight with power tools is to find out where they were made. Most of it is made in china and will have low quality but great prices, but occasionally you'll get Taiwanese tools for similarly good prices and they're actually better than tools twice the price from one of the many TTI subsidiaries that clutter up the hardware isles. A lot of once quality brands are now bought out and are being milked for their nostalgia until they're known to be just as crappy as the likes of Craftsman currently. I've heard good things about the HF Earthquake impact drivers, likely due to teardown videos like this one [MEDIA=youtube]UkPzjV-ZaTU[/MEDIA] Surprisingly good performance and dirt cheap. I'd stay far clear of Hercules though, those are Chinese made HF which is nowhere near the same quality construction. [/QUOTE]
