Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

[Diggin It]

I have one of the CP 1/2" electric impacts. Works for nearly everything I've tried, but I have found one or two badly rusted that it won't break.

That would be great! You could use HF item #98052 Money Miser Coin Sorter to count your earnings.

Although looking at the rating on that item, I think it belongs in the other HF thread.

Anybody have their folding/collapsible ladder as opposed to the Werner or other brands?

This one?

17 Ft. Type IA Multi-Task Ladder

We have one at the ranch and it’s been very handy. I can throw it in the bed of the Polaris Ranger and take it anyplace. The action is very smooth and it very sturdy.

We’ve also have a Little Giant ladder at our Richmond house. The HF was less expensive and every bit as strong.

FWIW ... posting a link, to the HF item your asking about, makes it easier for folks to help you.

I think they are similar to the other branded ladders, and if you can get them discounted they are worth it. Here's a coupon for $109.99 Harbor Freight Tools Coupon Database - Free coupons, 25 percent off coupons, toolbox coupons - 17 FT. TYPE 1A MULTI-TASK LADDER
I got one at Menards a couple years ago after comparing the two. It was a toss up, but Menards dropped their price and had their 11% rebate going the day I went to pick it up so I saved some money getting theirs. Great ladders though. Sturdy and handy.

I have the Little Giant as well, and find that the built-in wheels make a big difference for me when moving it around. Twenty years ago, I wouldn't have cared. All the multi-task ladders are pretty heavy to hump around, as another poster noted. The HF and Werner models that I've seen don't have them.
