Usually that holds true. But I will confess to having recently purchased a few HF moving blankets, on sale for $4.99. But in my defense I bought them to protect some Shopsmith stuff I was transporting.

Not all tools from HF are junk. I bought the osc. spindle sander from there and it has been a great addition to my shop as well as saving quite a bit of money. I also bought a HVLP sprayer and it is a good tool also. You just have to be selective about what you buy.
