This video is about Harbor Freight ICON Tools Wrenches
Legend says he’s still paying off that Snap-on ratchet 🧐
😂😆😅😂
That is the great thing about HF, they have their own in store brands, and can pay engineers and designers to come out with some really nice tools. Currently they are making some of the big name brands like Dewalt nervous. Their Hercules line comes to mind. Once I get my garage shop all set up, I am getting rid of my ancient, dinky Black and Decker miter saw and picking up the Hercules Compound Miter Saw. That thing is a beast, and has one of the greatest warranties on the planet. You can use it for up to exactly a year, and if you don't like it for any reason, they will take it back, no questions asked. That is what you call a company that has confidence in their product. Great review, thanks!
Gregg Hernandez I do like their no ? asked warranty..... Thanks for watching!
Harbor freight is great. They offer the cheap stuff that you can use on so many things that don’t require loads of torque and then it gradually gets higher in cost and quality for your more heavy mechanical jobs. Quinn and icon can take care of the majority of peoples work
Agreed 👍
Those icon wrenches are made by Infar , the very same company that makes the Carlyle wrench and the channel lock wrench, the only designing that Harbor Freight has to do with that wrench is the icon badge
That would be a cool "Tool Tech Tuesday" feature, a follow up review of tools you showed us after you use it a while.
Cool dude that is the plan for next week!
HF has done an outstanding job marketing the ICON line of tools, time will tell if they can stand up to premium tools.
No issues with mine does far my only regret is I wish I would’ve bought the smooth jaw
Going to sears used to be an event for me, it was something you knew wasn’t going to be waste of money. Harbor freight if your listening let’s get some tools that are made in USA and you will dominate the market.
100% Thanks For Watching!
I just got the 24 piece polished wrench craftsman set in Sae for 35$ and the metric set 24 piece polished for 39$ . I love them and there super nice and beefy. You can't go wrong buying 48wrenches for 75$. The polish is super nice at very quality.
Good buy!!!!
I just order the 14pc metric. the list price was $99.99 and the emails that Harbor Freight sends you is the 20% off. So it is like $79.99 like them so far. :)
Same here I have no complaints. Thanks for watching!
Lowe’s makes exchanging craftsman easy. I just went last month to exchange a 3/8 ratchet. I was in and out within 10” with a new craftsman ratchet.
Yeah I’ve done that a couple of times.
miaybe but they aint like the old "forged in USA" craftsman! I got tools that was handed to me from paps collection and then Im still using them ....many years
@@fike301 I moved and wanted to take my dads old Sears craftsman stuff. Everything was USA made
After going to SEMA this year and seeing Harbor Freights new line of higher-end tools icon Doyle Etc I've decided to set up to set up 2 General 5 drawer standard red metric blue tool carts with everything you need in each because I'm tired of running back and forth to the big box this way I can bring the tools to the work and it's really not going to cost me very much to buy what I don't have to make the 2 tool carts
I don’t think you can go wrong. I’m waiting for some impact sockets now. Thanks For Watching!
I have a addiction for tools 🧰 👨🔧.. I relapse every time the tool truck pulls up to my shop driveway 🚚
I feel you on that I have a big weakness for tools also you can never have enough tools. 😂 Thanks For Watching!
I have quite the addiction as well.
I believe the non-ratcheting anti-slip ones are made by Cornwell. I was told the rest of them I don't know but either way it really doesn't f****** matter that I can't copy the design of other tools because the tools are decent and they're a whole lot cheaper
Yeah so far so good. The only thing I’m not 💯 happy with is the no slip
@@ChadMyers73 I don't know myself personally I use Milwaukee wrenches
My biggest sell point to go with Tekton verses Icon was individual wrench sales. If you loose a 10mm (witch happens all the freaking time) You CAN NOT go to Harbor to buy one missing Icon or Pittsburgh wrench. However you can go to Lowes and pick up a missing Kobalt or Online order a missing Tekton. I try to choose my tools by how hard it will be to replace it when it brakes or gets lost or stolen and how long my projects are gonna be on hold while I'm waiting for a tool.
Very good point individual sales is a huge selling factor.
Bro everyone says this and it’s not true. For warranty’s they give out individual sockets or wrench’s. Say you break a socket and bring it in. They will either give you a brand new single one or they will open a new pack give you the socket out of that one then the rest of that pack is used for warranty reasons. It’s just like every other tool brand that has a lifetime waranty.
@@xaphan8581 Bro you don't always break the tool you need to replace(covered under warranty). As I stated "if you loose one piece of a set"(not covered under warranty), You can not BUY single pieces of a set at the Harbor F. This is why I made my choices in tool brands. You, may have other reasons that I would love to hear.
@@donitmyself8935 maybe organize your tools and that won’t happen
@@donitmyself8935 also I looked into all the bigger brands and no one replaces tools you lost. Snap on, tekton, koken and other brands you have to bring in the tool you want replaced to show that it had a defect or broke. So your literally complaining about icon when every other brand is the same fucking way. This is why stupid people should be limited internet access because other stupid people will listen to your stupid comments
I'm doing a review on these as well . Waited for the hype to settle down. But Craftsman was crap before Stanley. Apex handled the tool line which was China long before Stanley which is now Taiwan and on par with some Icon tools now
I like them so far.
i bought several new craftsman’s after using them for years all my old ones are made in usa the new ones are really nice and on par with the old ones
I kinda wanna do the same. Especially sense I’ve been going to the swap meet or flea markets around my house and getting basically brand new tools for dirt cheap.
👍👍👍👍
I've used the hell outta my craftsman , people can say what they want about the tool trucks being the best but stores are just as good for alot of work
The new craftsman is coming back to America btw
Btw Sears has great prices on their wrenches sets, I have several reviews on my channel to check out .
I will agree with you my old Craftsman is good but the new stuff not so good. Thanks for watching!
Craftsman is still good. Even though it's not made in America anymore, it still has the same forging process and warranty. Virtually the same, just no "Made in U.S.A"
opinions
I recently bought the OTC Ball Joint Super Set; item #6530. Most of which is still made in America, and I've been very impressed! I also own several of their kits and specialty tools... All of which have proven themselves worthy of my time. I own several historical Snap-On, Plovmb, Sk, Craftsman, and other obscure tools like Bonnie and Williams! OTC has been great and very dependable and priced fair for the quality. I would check them out! 👍
Thank you for the info!
I'm waiting for them to come out with 6point wrenches
I’m on the hunt for some impact sockets. Thanks for watching!
Right
Me too
Just bought these because they are a Carlyle clone , love the teeth on the open end
Me not so much. Thanks for watching!
U got it rite. I take icon over craftsman any day. I got the icon ratchets. Way better than craftsman
I have had no issues with any of my Icon tools.
I got the Pittsburgh wrench set but the longer icon ones look good plus it’s good to have another set
Yes sir you can never have enough tools. 😂 Thanks for watching!
First time watcher and I subscribed. I am definitely not a fan of the new Craftsman tools either. I started looking online and it came down to Icon or Tekton. I really don't know why, but I went with Tekton, but I would have no problems with Icon.
Thanks for the sub and welcome to the family!
He looks like Hoby Buchanon 😂
I would like to see Harbor Freight offer their hand tools in an "open stock" for warranty purposes as well, instead of bringing back a whole set of something for one broken item. I used a 30% off coupon a month ago that HF had for the ICON tools to buy a metric, stubby wrench set. I ping-ponged between the ICON and two other brands. Maybe I won't regret it.
They will open a socket, wrench set or what ever to replace what you need. Thanks for watching!
Chad Myers73 yeah, I misspoke about bringing in a whole set for a one item. I was referring to what you said of opening a whole new set for one broken item. But, you made a good point of how profitable would it be for HF to continue to do that and put the open new set on the “open box” shelf.
I wasnt impressed with the anti slip open end on the icon
So far so good for me but we will see.
Just got a set of metrics and standards. They are very nice tools for the money
Here is a link for you to check out. Thanks for watching!

In Africa every 60 seconds a minute passes
Ok 🤷♂️
My gowd think of the children
As someone who buys from snapon weekly, I will never buy their combination wrenches. What you have from icon for less than $200 is literally just over $1k for
WoW! When I was younger I thought I had to have Snap-on everything.
I'm not a full time mechanic but I have tools to keep myself busy. Truck comes every Wednesday to our shop but we aren't a mechanic shop but we do work on our equipment occasionally. Snap-on makes some fantastic tools but there's just some something I won't be the extra for
It is easy to get hung up on that tool truck when it comes and the man says I’ll just set you up on a payment plan.
Oh it's wicked. Really the reason I buy
All most all of my tools are otc Williams and Pittsburgh pro I work out of a truck mostly in the middle of nowhere and the Pittsburgh 301 pice set from harbor freight is Invaluable
Thanks for watching!
Icon has some of the softest steel in the industry.
I've used my bigger wrenches with minimal to no flex. Thanks for watching.
@@ChadMyers73 I was referring to how softthe"teeth" are
Yep
The ICON sockets and wrenches that I've purchased are damned disappointing
@@eddwiggins4383 the long reversible wrenches are decent and the warranty makes them Worth it but screw everything else lol
I spent 70 dollars more and got a 14 peace MAC metric set still BRAND NEW on ebay for 150.
I have the Pittsburgh wrenches 🔧
Might have to go get icon
They have a 20% coupon right now for Icon Purchases. Thanks for watching!
It's the same quality.
I was at the junk yard yesterday and realized that I forgot my entire set of metric wrenches which makes working on a vehicle these days real difficult. Went to harbor freight and was so close to buying that 5 piece set to get me by but not knowing if they will hold up kept me from buying them. They sold me one of their 3/4 drive socket sets that are marketed for servicing trucks for stupid cheap because it was missing the 37mm due to how they warranty things. It got me by for cheap but I wish I would’ve got those wrenches now. They look good.
So far so good with mine but time will tell. Thanks for watching!
Same last name, so I clicked, even spelled the same and not tryna stick that extra e in there, lol.
Harbor freight....I have a few of their products. Most don’t seem to last, but it’s so cheap you have to try. Amiright?
Great video
Thank You!
Skips 9/32. You might not need it, but it skips it.
There are plenty of good brands of affordable wrenches out there without stooping to the Icon hype or to Shittsburg
👍
Those are not professional quality! I had high hopes. Steel is way to soft. Be honest stay away from them.
Professional or not if you don’t not use your tools to make a living you don’t need to spend the money for snap on or Mac. They have the same warranty as the high and expensive brands. Thanks for watching!
I have the icon ones not so satisfied I would just go with the craftsman, you can’t beat forged wrenches
Back in the day I would have agreed with you but since they sold out to Stanley not so much....
@@ChadMyers73 I’ve been using harbor freight forged ones and I work at my shop all day professional work zero issues with them🤷🏼♂️
These tools dont seem to have anything over tekton or gearwrench other than price and some fantastic marketing. The ratchets are not impressive next to a GW 120XP. The finish on everything seems decent, but is that enough?
I’m on the fence thus far but so far so good. Thanks for watching!
given everything else being equal, the ease of warranty replacement with HF wins out in my opinion
I miss the monster ultra black
Me TOO I have about 10 left but I did find it on Amazon.....
I will stay with the Tekton, but you gave a good review.
Thanks for watching!
Very nice review... I was not completely sold on the icon brand. So I got the metric set of anti slip combination wrenches. Iwent with the gunmetal chrome SAE combination wrenches from craftsman for my other wrench set. I guess I have a Frankenstein set of combination wrenches. Which ever brand works best is the complete set I'll go with.
That is a great way to see which brand will work best for you. Thanks for watching!
I have a new tool video every tuesday with more Icon to come. Hit that subscribe button and become part of the family!
There is an app Harbor Freight Coupons, that has several discount and free item coupons, use it every time I go to HF.
That’s awesome! If you care to share it with us leave another and let us all know what is called. Thanks For Watching!
Your talking about the 20 percent off all icon products sema coupon
Yes sir it ends today. Thanks for watching!
@@ChadMyers73 your welcome I was just trying to be informative to everyone watching
@@AntonioClaudioMichael Heck yeah by all means.
@@ChadMyers73 I subbed bro you have a good channel much respect I did some videos on coupon and other stuff
@@AntonioClaudioMichael Thanks and welcome to the family!
What bothers me is preaching about craftsman when they were craftsman (ie. Made in USA by SK) only to “sell” overseas tools based on looks and lifetime warranty... the same lifetime warranty you received from craftsman but somehow the icon warranty is better cause their tools are chrome polished? Help me understand the logic
For me personally the craftsman brand is completely different now and is not as well as what it once was. With the closing of the Sears stores it’s too difficult to try and get a replacement.
cheap ball joint tool needs grease on threads or they will crap out n i had tomake my own cups out of pipe due to odd sizing .. used for 8.8 ford rear end diff housing bushings
Cool man that’s great info to share. Thanks for watching!
It would be great if they sold individual wrenches.
Agreed!!!
use box end to break a bolt
Snap on your looking about 800 for both of those sets
Ok cool man thanks for the info.
Ripoff
Last I checked those are $110 each
Good old craftsman the new craftsman I agree is garbage
Yeah you might as well call the new stuff Stanley. LOL
@@ChadMyers73 yep oh by the way black friday there doing a deal at harbor freight for the 20 ton shop press for 139 dollers might be a good deal if you need it
Not according to craftsman. Lmaooooo
@@monster-pq7ln 😂😂
@@monster-pq7ln not according to stanley black and decker craftsman dosen't talk unless Stanley says so
In Houston we still have monster black
Man your lucky I was able to order some on amazon but won’t last forever. 😢
Chad Myers73 try the white one pretty good also
Yes I have it is pretty good but the ultra black is my favorite.
Chad Myers73 that’s understandable lol mine is the white one
Great video 👍
Tekton wrenches are cheaper with same warranty
The icon ratchets are great but the sockets and wrenches are not so good.
So far so good with mine...
Icon tools are 100% chinesium steel melts like butter and breaks like a kit-kat.
I’ve used mine fairly extensively thus far with no brakes yet but we will see. Thanks For Watching!
KAL EL bullshit
Have you used them professionally and found them to be inferior or just saying what other people say?
@@fhbkx As for me I'm a heavy hobbyist...
@@fhbkx the wrench set I haven't even touched but the ratchet and socket set broke in under a month. Started skipping gears then boom completely stuck and I blew out the walls on my 17mm using it on my impact wrench since I was being to lazy to return it that same day but still wanted to finish off a full days work. Now I know they aren't impact rated and that's why they broke but I've used several random sockets on my impact and I've never seen a socket peel away like that. I returned the set and opted for a new push cart instead.
Nice post sir
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Dam im 3 years too late lol
👍
They look nothing like tekton or Carlyle. They are a cheap Chinese knock off of snap on. They’re nice but they aren’t as good as snap on.
Ok it is made in China but so is craftsman now and it use to be a great brand. If you are young and just getting started collecting tools or you don't use your tools to make a living I think it is a great brand thus far. Thanks for watching!
New coupon expires 2/29/2020
www.harborfreight.com/icon-tool-storage
Yes I saw the Coupon for 20% all ICON TOOLS! Thanks!
3:18 to skip all the rambling about nothing.
That rambling is a key part of my method. 🤣
What hype?🤨
The popularity.... 😂
"Paying for the rest of my life" If you're paying for the rest of your life on a wrench set you have deeper issues with finances. People who complain about that probably own a 50k truck. I have a $800 dollar air compressor, I paid it off quite easy within 4 months. I make 15 dollars and hour with a side hustle. I own both Mac and Snapon with 0 dept at the moment. I buy everything preowned new. I own a Hotrod with 16k worth of parts invested into it.
Every thing is fake
🤷♂️
