Unfortunately there&#;s no Harbour Freight in the UK, not even sure what the equivalent would be here.

Fortunate or unfortunate: It all depends on what you're looking for.
Harbor Freight and Tool started off as Harbor Freight and Salvage back in the 's. They had a warehouse in Camarillo, about 60 miles north of here. They ordered REALLY cheap junk from China, and sold it dirt cheap to people who favored price over quality. I bought a lot of stuff from them back in the day. I was in my 20's, and it was fun to order up a box full of toys, even if they weren't very good. Times changed, the company evolved, and eventually they started selling products that were not completely awful.
I have a variety of their stuff in the garage today. I have a disc sander that I needed for one particular project 15 years ago, and it was good enough that I still have it. Same with a die grinder. I'm very happy with it. My most-used Phillips screwdriver is from Harbor Freight. On the flip side, I bought a machinery jack that was such a POS I gave it away to a friend who wanted it. A belt sander from last year was so bad that I had to rebuild it just to make it functional. It's still a POS.
The bottom line is that you will never get the best from Harbor Freight, but you might very well get the cheapest. If you intend to really USE a tool and you can afford it, buy it elsewhere.
