Obviously, not every single tool that HF sells is total crap and completely unsuitable for any job whatsoever.
But, some of the stuff they sell certainly is laughably bad.
If you're careful on what you're buying, there are lots of HF items that will get your job done and be fine.
Yeah, I got burned on their incredibly bad sander, but my biggest issue is their shipping costs, "backorders" and long shipping time. When I need something, I usually need it reasonably quickly, I don't usually have 2 weeks to wait. And I hate the fact that if you order 10 items, they take the order, but when you get the box 2 weeks later, only 6 items are in there, the others are "not available" or "backordered." They've given no advance warning of that, the first time you find out is when the stuff isn't in the box.
Overall, they are just a poorly run company selling some ok stuff, but a lot of crap. I don't bother with them anymore.
