I usually don't write reviews on non-eating establishments, but its a new year, so why not make a resolution on the fly to review a few other places in town, and why not start with Harbor Freight. My wife hates this place. But I can spend an hour wandering around, thinking "oh I need that" (I really don't). And it goes in my basket anyway. Why? Cuz it's cheap! Sometimes you get what you pay for. As they say, don't buy pacemakers or defibrillators at Harbor Freight. But you can find deals on cheap gloves, decent sockets and wrench sets, and other stuff that you will use once in a while. Bring coupons, and if you need help, the staff is usually around to help you find something. Five stars, because it's fun to walk around and buy cheap tools. read more

I purchased the slide clamps to use in woodworking. I using them the leave an oil residue on my project. THIS SUCKS!!!!! It is adding a lot of work to try to remove the contamination! How can they market a product that will ruin a hard worked on project. read more

I've always loved coming here it's an Excellent place for cheaper tools. Depending on what you need they usually have it and the prices are great. However I came in today and they are starting a members only program $30 a year to get the deal prices. No need to give them your phone number anymore for purchases. read more

Harbor Freight Tools - Store shelves at Harbor Freight Tools in Tucson, AZ, display Pittsburgh hydraulic floor jacks and related equipment, with price tags and product labels visible. - Hardware Stores Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

This is one of two Harbor Freight locations I have been in Tucson. Of the two, this is my least favorite. The place is very small, unkempt, and doesn't have the same variety of products as the location on Oracle. If I weren't already a fan of Harbor Freight, I would have written it off. However, the tools they use are pretty good for people who do not do a lot of work around the house, and the price can't be beat, since they come with a lifetime warranty where you can exchange any tool set for a similar one with no questions asked. The customer service here is spotty. As I browsed the shelves, I saw two people on the floor doing nothing but gossiping, rather than stopping to help confused customers like myself. Some of the other people on the floor were great though, and very helpful. read more

Kyle was great friendly help today finding items & check out . Great go to store for home & hardware needs. Great alternative to big box stores at better prices. Many ads with discounts, free items , & 25% off one item coupons. Coupons in papers, at store, or on line. read more

It's harbor freight so you get what you pay for, what I was not expecting is the awesome customer service, I checked out with Kristen. Just a super positive attitude, funny and very patient with the dated IBM register. Lol read more

This is my goto Harbor Freight when I want to pick up something I see in the ad. This is not a big store, so they can be out of items. The quality of their products can be hit and miss - most of the time ok. Prices are excellent - this can be hit and miss also - sometimes you get what you pay for and they don't last too long before they break. I have a few products that I go for such as tarps, light strings, yard items, some light tools that are usually ok. Given the wide variation in quality - I'm giving this a 3 out of 5. read more

Received a gift that broke on first use and can't make right due to receipt issues (can't be found and bought without phone#). Stay away, no assistance to long time customer. Spend the extra for quality and customer service. read more

These guys are the reason online sales will eventually dominate and take over in-person retail sales. Grabbed a ticket to buy an item that, if inventory were done correctly, would have not been available and the display would have been put away. Instead, kid in the front told me they were sold out and could not sell the display. Ordered on Amazon prime for 30 dollars cheaper and will get it shortly. Done with this place until they can get a little more organized. This is 2014. You need to compete. Keep your inventory up to date. Sell the display if you have to. Instead, you lost a long time customer and thousands of dollars to Amazon. read more

Not the best version of Harbor Freight I've ever been to. All us guys know we all like to wander the isles looking for things we don't really need. There are a lot of blank spots at this particular store. I've been here a couple of times and the last time it was pure nuts. I've never seen so many people and there wasn't anything special going on. I couldn't even get a cart to push around. After I picked up a few things I went to the shortest register... guy said he was closed. All these people and they only had a couple of registers open... but I finally got to the register and checked out. I'm going to try another store in a day or so and I hope I don't have to come back to this store again. read more

My absolutely favorite tool store in Tucson. The employees are always very helpful and friendly the management have no problem jumping in to help when needed and the store is always clean and tidy. The only complaint I have is it's so close to walmart I usually end up stopping in there also. read more

Harbor Freight has an insiders club I can join for only 29.95 for a year or $44 for two years. If I join tonight I can get tomorrow's special parking lot sale prices. Let me do the math . Tonight the tool is on sale for 69.99. Tomorrow the sale price is 84.99 so if I pay 29.99 and join the insiders club tonight I can pay $15 more for the tool plus the 30 for the insiders club so I can pay $45 more than the prices tonight with the insiders club . I'm not sure if this is an honest mistake or intentional ripoff but I'm guessing the former. read more

Well, it's a Harbor Freight. Oodles of good-enough cheap stuff. There's definitely a place for this kind of product. This store had good signage to find things. They actually had four cash registers open to handle the crowd! Wish they were closer to my neighborhood. read more

I'm so happy that I called and asked about a part, in great detail. To hear a voice on the other line that sounded high, half way assure me that they had it. When I asked the price they threw out a "ummmmm like 10$" great price quote bro! I then Drive across town to find oh look they don't have it at all, or anything even close. Awesome! It's not like I need that part today and wasted time I didn't have to spare. You would think that drug testing employees would be a thing, as would training them to look up parts and prices when advising customers of their current stock! I would avoid this place like the plague. Their are plenty of hardware and tools to be found where the employees have a brain. read more

If you don't have the skrilla for high-end tools with the high price tags, then this is your place. I would not buy tools here if I were a professional mechanic or trade worker because the quality is just not there. It's great for do-it-yourselfers when buying an infrequently used specialty tool, setting up your at-home garage/shop, or replacing something. They have some incredible deals and when paired with their coupons that show up in various print sources, it's hard to resist. It's also fun to just poke around because you inevitably leave with something you didn't know you "needed"....like a giant Rambo knife that was only $8. :) Last, the service is great and workers are always surprisingly helpful and friendly. read more

I've been in this store three times, and it is always packed. The lines back up. I don't know if it's just that busy and popular, or they don't have enough tellers, but often I just don't want to wait in line if I'm looking for one or two items which is usually the case. I love the discount coupons you can find anywhere (usually car magazines, or in the mail) for 20-25% off plus there is a coupon for a freebie, like screwdrivers or other items. This store is a LOT of fun, and there's a little bit of everything, plus things you never expect to find! read more

Love Harbor Freight they have tools at low prices. Everything is almost always available. They have nice employees that are very helpful.

I seriously think the Store on Ina is better with nicer more knowledgeable staff, and a slightly larger selection. I live down the street from this location and I will drive across town to go there. I think corporate needs to crack some skulls and hire new minions. Except the guy with the hearing aids he seems to be the only one there worth a damn, cant remember his name for the life of me. As for the products they sell everyone is spot on. Cheap, decent, DIY speciality tools. read more

Like my fellow yelper Brad H. said. Well ~ it's Harbor Freight. I can go there just walked around and make myself buy some useless at the time yet potentially useful tools. Where can you find a 1/2 in 150 lb torque wrench for $10 (when its on sale)? Not sure about the accuracy. but for weekend garage guy like me Its good enough for half way decent tools. I don't need Knipex but love to have them. In the meantime I think I am a good boy this year. Santa? read more

If you have never been to a Harbor Freight Store it's a must. Even if you have no interest in tools you must see it to believe. Besides the super coupons, senior discounts. Buy something and get other items for free. I couldn't even go through all the items they have. From Generators, to oil pumps, to tool benches, the paint sprayers, to dollies, to tarps, to greenhouses, to solar rope lights, to drills of all kinds and sizes. We went in and bought three items. One for changing lights bulbs that are high up, a super strong scissors for cutting very hard material, and a blanket for moving. Not moving but couldn't turn down anything that was for free. The place is mobbed and lots of help around. Isles and isles of goodies. These three items cost $2.14. Even if you don't need anything it is worth the spectacular amount of goodies to just wonder "What in the heck do i need that for":. read more

On 9/6/19 I purchased (2) 60'' Hardwood Workbenches from the store on 22nd street in Tucson, Az. During the installation I discovered that two of the drawer handles were broken and one of the drawer bottom's had the felt lining torn. I tried calling the number on the installation manual for missing or replacement parts, but never reached a representative after 45 minutes of their pre-recorded messages. I called another number and reached a representative that told me to bring back the bench which I had to assemble and weighed over 100 lbs. After I discussed my situation she transferred me to customer service which, after waiting another 15 minutes they disconnected me. If your thinking of buying anything from Harbor Freight think twice, because if you have a problem you may end up like me. read more

Not very high quality tools, of course, but certainly fine for occasional use and always quite inexpensive. Hate that there is often between a 20 and 30 minute wait to check-out. read more

Just a word of praise for the go-to tool place if you don't want to spend a fortune at Lowe's or HD on a tool you might use only once or twice. Harbor Freight will keep you in cheap gloves, gardening tools, or even a good-sized assemble-it-yourself RV trailer. The smell of cheap plastic and rubber is almost overpowering, but where else can you get an electric fly swatter for $5 or perfectly decent lawn gnomes for pocket change? While my elitist craftsman friends call it "Harbor Junk," they fill an important niche for me, the girl who breaks tools anyway and for whom tool shelf life is not a factor. read more

The is a nice place to go for good tools at a good price. Add in the weekly ads from the paper and you can always get a good deal and some free stuff. read more

Great selection, price, and customer service. Been shopping there for years. Today was the only day I had a problem with one of my purchases (68284 Electric Drain Cleaner). Called Jamie up, she had a new one in stock waiting for me, picked it up, and septic pipe drain clog no more. New one worked like a charm! Can't say enough about this store and its employees. read more

Great prices and service. Alyssa directed me to everything i needed and then helped me use coupons to save money. She also recognized my company's account would expire Within a week or two and renewed it for me. She did a great job and I left a very satisfied customer read more

Gr8 store to shop. Had a bad experience with one particular employee. Managment took care of it right away and made things right with me as the customer. They honor their warranties and will exchange defective items. Larry and DJ are two awesome people and a pleasure to do business with. Thanks guys. read more

My husband is an architecture student and we are landlords (a crazy man's job) so we need lots of random tools and hard to find items. So we come to Harbor Freight and they ALWAYS deliver and are happy to give you a 20% coupon several times per year. We find tarps, clamps, power tools (yay!), even mini power tools that serve our purposes at very reasonable prices. The location is no frills, a little run down, but the knowledge the employees have to share makes it worth looking past. I make the drive to 22nd and Craycroft from the U of A area instead of visiting a big box store, especially when they are rare or hard to find items. There is always plenty of parking, but can get busy on the weekends and when there are sales, you can wait up to 15 minutes in line. So keep that in mind, plus you, kind of get lost in the aisles of fun stuff. So if you are in a rush it may or may not be the place depending on the day. read more

Always get good customer service. Yestday my fiance and I went in looking for a floor jack. The fine print was worded a little weird on the coupon. I grabed the the first person we saw, it so happed to be the store manager. We asked if we were able to use that coupon. It was not able to be used. He mentioned there should be another coupon in the ad specicly for the floor jack my fiance wanted. This made it affordable for us to get. He was just so nice and helpful from the time we came in to the time we checked. He made my fiances day. read more

Chinese made tools at cheap prices. Often not the best quality, but if you don't make your living with the tools, they are more than good enough for most jobs. Most of these cost 1/3 of the price of tools anywhere else and the sales are epic. Its a love hate relationship - I spend far too much here, but really, can you ever have too many tools? read more

I have purchased tools that are such poor quality that they didn't survive ONE USE! The management wasn't very interested in my comments. I consider myself a talented homeowner, not professional at anything, but i have wide range of knowledge regarding many types of tools that they stock. I would be careful about your choice of purchase-there are some decent quality items there mixed in with the trash. Have you ever wondered why they push their warranty on items worth ten bucks or more?? Must be where they make most of their money since most homeowners trash items rather than return them. read more
