This popped up on Facebook but it’s worth a share here if you guys haven’t seen it.
BmanUltima's car still hasn't been fixed yet, he'll get on it tomorrow, honest.

Uhm. Where do you start? Anywhere?

That covers it pretty thoroughly. My basic process is whether I’ll use the tool all of the time or just occasionally but the addition of safety/damage considerations are probably wise.

You should absolutely buy a tool at Harbor Freight... so long as it has vetted by the guys at the garagejournal.com fourms. This flow chart is pretty awesome though.
Oh and the toolboxes rock too.

Generally, box wrenches, non-impact sockets and occasional use power tools (that will not cause great injury in the event of failure), I will happily buy at harbor freight. I would probably buy impact sockets too, just to try them. Air compressor, lithium impact driver, and a torque wrench I would likely not buy at harbor freight.

I go about this in an odd way. I prefer Craftsman tools but will buy HF if I need a certain tool on a budget. My thinking is that I can purchase the HF tool for hella cheap and if I find myself using it enough to the point where it breaks, I’ll buy a fancy version of that tool from Craftsman/Matco/Snap On or whatever.

Honestly I do the same thing, HF is essentially disposable or something I will only use a couple times. If I find myself using it more than that I will buy a better quality one at that point.

i go straight to craftsman. I’ve had hand me down tools used hundreds of times and sears hasn’t questioned replacement once. i usually find myself working at weird times or holiday weekends and the 20% reduction in price isn’t worth ruining a weekend or the time wasted driving over to it.
