It appears to me that the HF whiners don't have brains enough to pick and choose at HF. I've been buying from the place for over 30 years. They have always had a line of good stuff and crap. Just have to "take your pick." This "buy American" protestations is also a little specious. HF employs 17,000 people in this country.
I worked in many dealerships where many mechanics were tool-snobs. If your box was not full of Snap-On, Mack, Bonney, Williams, and maybe some old S.K.Wayne stuff, you got frowned upon. Give me a break! My HF 9" grinder (the yellow version) is now 35 years old and has outlasted my Sioux grinder. Low-profile rapid-pump floor jack by far better then any USA jack I ever had. Engine hoist and transmission jack are not the quality of a rental unit-but hey - they are for personal use. The point is - I no longer HAVE to rent big tools. 800 lb. trans jack was $130 four years ago and I have used the heck out of it. If it dies tomorrow - I am still ahead. Same with the 2 ton engine-crane. $169 five years ago and has greatly paid for itself. And hand tools? Their long-handle combo wrenches are as good or better then any Snap on I've had at 1/5 the price.
