Harbor Freight Makes the Top Ten List of Top Tools for 2022

Harbor Freight Tool Favored by Respected YouTube Channel Resources

In past articles we’ve learned that despite its history as the poor mans’ tool store, Harbor Freight has actually entered into the realm of respectability of late---especially with its ICON brand of hand tools that are more affordable and just as dependable (if not better) than many traditional name-brand tools that once were considered the best money can buy.

And better yet, that respectability has included some power tools as well that have gone head-to-ahead against the likes of DeWalt and Milwaukee.

Which brings us to the topic at hand: One of Harbor Freight’s power tools made the list in the Torque Test Channel YouTube channel’s list of “The Top 10 Tools of 2022.” Is this a big deal? You betcha it is!

If there are two YouTube resources that are must-watch channels when it comes to useful and informative tool reviews, Torque Test Channel and Project Farm are the best-regarded leaders as the go-to sources when shopping for tools and trying to decide which brand delivers the most for the dollar cost.

That said without sounding like I get a kickback from those sources---which I don’t, just to be clear---here is another recommended must-watch video from the Torque Test Channel to find out not only what Harbor Freight tool made their list, but also nine others that are useful to know about in case your next project calls for one of their recommendations.
