Free Ridgid JobMax Attachment Head with Multi-Tool Starter Kit

Nov 19, 2010 Stuart 4 Comments

Earlier this month we wrote about the new Ridgid JobMax starter kits on Home Depot’s website that feature the standard starter kit and a free attachment tool head of choice, but people had problems getting on the deal. It looks like Home Depot fixed things – the kits are no longer “out of stock” and […]

We recently republished a reader’s review of the new Husky ratcheting rotary socket wrench that he left in comment to our post about the tool. It has since come to light that this comment/review may have been FAKE. Until we get to the bottom of this, please consider the republished user review to be invalid. In the […]

Home Depot Husky Holiday Tool Gift Guide

Nov 8, 2010 Stuart 13 Comments

This weekend I visited a few major tool and home improvement stores for a sneak peek of their winter holiday tool gift displays. As expected, the two Home Depots closest to me had most of their displays up already. Similar to last year’s selection, there were a few power tools in the mix, but there was a […]

Husky 48 in 1 Ratcheting Rotary Socket Wrench – Another Dog Bone

Nov 3, 2010 Stuart 12 Comments

Dan sent us a heads-up about Husky’s new universal spline ratcheting wrench. I was already heading off to Home Depot that day, so I made a point to check it out. This Husky 48-in-1 “ratcheting rotary socket wrench” is essentially a universal dog bone wrench similar in design to Black & Decker’s new ratcheting ReadyWrench.

Why Home Depot’s Online Store Won’t Say Where Tools are Made

Sep 3, 2010 Stuart 20 Comments

While most power tools are now manufactured overseas, many hand tools are still made in the USA, Canada, England and other countries with long traditions of producing top-quality tools with pride. In recent years, more and more domestic factories have closed their doors and shuttered their windows, making it more important than ever to know where tools […]

15 Cheapo Flashlights for $15 at Home Depot

Jul 20, 2010 Stuart 6 Comments

Over at my local Home Depot, I spotted a display of 15 cheap flashlights for $15. Each flashlight features 6 LEDs, and batteries are included. These are similar to the generic flashlights sold at Amazon, Meritline, and Harbor Freight. These flashlights aren’t reliable enough to count on in an emergency situation, nor are they durable enough […]

Home Depot is having a “Spring Cyber Monday” online-only sale today. As part of their sale, Home Depot is selling Ryobi’s Auto Hammer for an obscenely low $20. We reviewed the Auto Hammer a few months ago, and had some mixed feelings about. At $20 (plus shipping), the Auto Hammer now costs less than a […]

Yesterday we mentioned a judgement against Home Depot for copying a patented saw design that they refused to pay the inventor for.

After scouring the web a bit, a few additional […]

Ryobi Tek4 Snips & Screwdriver Set – a Closer Look

Jan 12, 2010 Stuart 6 Comments

As previously mentioned, the Ryobi Tek4 5-piece kit features two new additions to the Tek4 lineup – a cordless screwdriver, and power snips. We gave these new Tek4 tools some more thought, and were able to briefly give them a try in-store. All in all, we are pretty optimistic about these new tools, and the […]
