Camping gear from Harbor Freight?

[Ken Sekley]

Do you have any camping gear that you bought from Harbor Freight? Did it last long or fizzle away into the dark?

LOL oh man, I have a hit or miss experience with Harbor friend. You just have to expect its going to be what it is for the price point.

Whats Harbor Freight return policy? If decent, I would try, but only if I could return if the product fails.

I buy their hard cases (pelican style). Their pretty good. That's about it for me.

 

[Mojave Traveler]

Are those waterproof or weather resistant ?

 

[smritte]

Yes.
They even have the front pressure switch.
You can see a bit of difference in the quality. I could take my Pelican cases and throw them around. My Harbor Freight ones look like they should hold up to severe abuse but, I cant imagine how I would abuse them that bad. They don't get tied down on the outside of my rig.

 

[Mojave Traveler]

Damn, sounds like I need to make a visit. I'm sure these are priced much better than the Pelican versions, which honestly I can't justify.

 

[smritte]

Theres a handful of diffrent case manufactures. I use these cases for projects which means I cut holes and mount things into them. I cant see spending several hundred on a real nice case. So far the Harbor freight cases have been the dimensions I need. I just wish they had more sizes available.

Honestly, never been there. I have friends who do, but just never made the trip myself.

Harbor Freight has some cool stuff, but you need to watch the cheaper stuff
