If your a DIY person, Harbor Freight is for you. They have amazing prices on lots of different things. Now, if you’re a professional or a serious craft person who wants tools that are really high-quality and will last a lifetime, look somewhere else. The store is well organized and quite clean. I found exactly what I was looking for and I am quite pleased with my purchase. There are always specials and clearance items so I usually end up with more than I came for. Good thing this store is not right around the corner from me lol

Harbor Freight is moving on up ! The recent introduction of their new “ICON” tool line is worth a second look. The hand tools they now offer, sockets, wrenches, ratchets, etc. look and feel substantial, the Finnish is beautiful, to say the least, and they do carry a lifetime warranty.For everyone thinking Harbor Freight is a purveyor of cheap, knock off tools, it seems they have stepped up their game with this tool line. The tools are priced higher than the stores standard offerings, but are extremely competitive with the professional tool truck brands that arrive weekly at the repair shops. For anyone wishing to save on a massive tool bill, you should venture out to Harbor Freight, and see the new tool display.The really impressive part of this new tool line is actually their “tool storage system”. Besides telling you that it’s massive, solid, well thought out, beautifully finished, and has size and design options available, And four color choices !! I could go on and on, but you need to see for yourself. They are now on display, also come with a lifetime warranty, and “free” delivery.It’s also worthy of mention that Harbor Freight Tools caries almost every facet of tool needs you might need, be it auto mechanics, carpentry, welder, tile setter, house painter, electrician. Now that’s not saying they have absolutely everything you might ever need, but they surely come close.And they also have a very reasonably priced wall of work gloves.I really want to give this tool line a five star review, but not having used any of these tools, just going by look and feel, Finnish, (I also sold tools many years ago, S&K brand), I leave it a four star for the time being, mainly to see how the company handles any warranty issues/returns.Happy wrenchin !!

A discount supermarket for all your tool needs. A first consideration durung any project beginning. I ask myself, can I get away with using a Harbor Freight _____ ?. The answer is the eternal price vs durability comparison. Do I need this tool to last forever? How long can I get out of this? Is it actually cheaper than anywhere else? I know, all deep questions, but timeless nonetheless. I particularly appreciate the entry-level price on some tools that I wouldnt necessarily buy if not for the discount compared to Lowes, Home Depot or online. Did I need an 18 1/2 drive breaker bar? No, I didnt. But it was so cheap I bought it anyway. Did I need 500 assorted rivets? Nope. But it was the same price as 50 at Lowes. Buy one file for $6 on Amazon, or 10 for $12 here? You be the judge. But I stand by erratic haphazard spending frugality. - Satisfied Hobbyist

What a great experience at Harbor Freight in Poughkeepsie. We needed plumbing tools on a Sunday and based on the website product reviews and what they had in stock, we headed to HF. Thomas (the sales manager) helped us to compare products, features, prices, sale offers, etc. and put together a great package for us. We went home, assembled our new tools and cleared up our plumbing situation in less than an hour. We will absolutely be shopping at the Poughkeepsie HF again and looking for more friendly, helpful advice from Thomas.

Best tool store in the area. I have been buying their tools for years since they opened up in Middletown NY. The stores are set up for customers to be able to fold what they come for with ease. The people working there are always friendly and super helpful. Thanks Harbor Freight for fill my life with joy and tools!

Very good value, excellent tools for the DIY person. Most tools offer performance that meets or exceeds professional line tools for a fraction of the price. If youre using the tools occasionally but cant justify paying to truck price Harbor Freight offers affordable tools that work very well. Their associates are very helpful and customer oriented.

I just called asking about a handheld voltage tester. Told her Id gone there in the past looking for something that wasnt there. She then asked if Id looked online. Not sure why Id be calling if i needed to be sure before I go there. I had to ask if she knew how to find out and she unexpectedly passed the phone onto someone else that was able to give me the info I needed. Why answer a phone if you arent capable of answering simple questions without asking for a part number as the only way to find out what Im looking for? Anyways kudos to the guy that helped me with what I thought wasnt a big deal.

You get what you pay for. In my opinion ok for some tools/accessories. Not really a good option for other items. Not gone go into detail just going off experience because I do shop there from time to time.

I have purchased several large ticket tools from here, and theyve been great. For like half the price of name brand competitors. However, the 4 stars is because there are some items you simply shouldnt buy here. Gloves. Drill bits. Zip ties. Pretty much anything smaller than your fist.

Excellent deals on tools with prices far below the bigger stores. Your mileage may vary when it comes to quality per item. Some items I purchased were just as high quality as Home Depot at less than half.

Review №22

My first time there. Ive been purposely avoiding it; I have an issue, an serious issue with impulse shopping. I like tools. All shiny and new. Prices are great. The question Ill not know the answer to just yet; how is the quality? Its easy for the vendor to claim they are quality tools. Time will tell!

Do you need durable, reliable power tools that will work for many years? Well, go somewhere else. Their tools will get you through that one job you need to finish, however and the prices are in line with the quality. They always distribute coupons for a free (small) item per visit and a 20 or 25 % discount on one item, so check a newspaper or online source before you go.

Went to buy steel toe work boots and toolbox. When asked front to get toolbox was out of stock. Then proceeded to ask if I could just buy the display toolbox and was told they cant do that so ended up driving down 45mins to buy nothing wasted the gas when they told me on the phone a hr before it was definitely in stock.

Lots of tools. Harbor freight was always known for throw away tools. They are really stepping up there game. I have bought there Bauer line for home use and they have been great.I used them on some houses I wired and no issue.They have a lot of coupons but hats more for there junkie stuff and not there higher end.If you watch you will occasionally find a coupon for there better stuff.With Sears pretty much done you have to go to HD or Lowes.I dont want to deal with people looking for plumbing and all the other construction related stuff to go get a tool.I like that all they sell is tools.

I bought a 44 tool box. When I brought it home and unboxed it, I found that it was damaged. I called the manager and explained. He immediately ordered me a new one and went out of his way to make it right. Ill definitely be shopping at the Poughkeepsie store again.

Great place for tools and things. Prices are cheap and their coupons make them even cheaper. You can save big bucks on hand tools, power tools and air tools that all work great for basic use. Only negative, which is minor, is that the checkout line can be long and take awhile if youre in a hurry.

Giant candy store for the grown man. Anything and everything is available and if they dont have it they can order it and have delivered to your home. I personally have harbor freight tools that I have had for 20+ years.

Review №59

Some people say that Harbor Freight tools are cheap and I say, they are, in price, but they insinuate that they are in quality, and I tell them that I bought a $14.95 (sometimes on sale for $9.95) Hand Grinder and that I use one in my shop every day for over 9 years and never had an issue. MORE POWER TO YOU HARBOR FREIGHT !!!

I want there because my friend need to pick up stuff but there is a ton of really cool stuff that people know what theyre talking about and yeah just a cool store overall for tools and everything that revolves around them..... I have been back till several timesIve had an issue with something I bought online and the person I dealt with at the store in Poughkeepsie his name was Steve was absolutely fantastic and would not let me leave without complete satisfaction of my experience of the store. From now on I will not be shopping online I will deal directly at the store level, especially when they have people like him....
