Just got home from HF, they were open on the 4th of July so that was cool.

Happy 4th by the way.

I bought a clearance item, ultrasonic stain remover, for $4.00 and it will not stay on. I changed the batteries that came with it and it is not the batteries. You probably can not get 4 AA batteries for $4 these days. Anyway, all is not perfect at HF.

I will take it back next trip there and get another one. The company I work for imports equipment from China and I know up until about a year ago, we bought from one factory that was always cutting corners, constant problems. We moved to another factory and very few issues and returns are rare. HF probably buys from a number of factories over there. Probably why some of their tools are OK and some are junk.

Like everyone knows, if you are using them to make a living, buy the good stuff.

Have to look for the ad where they compare their tool boxes to snap-on. That would be a good laugh for sure. I would just weigh the two boxes.
