I have used dewalt all my life, i started buying hart tools to avoid having them stolen of the job site. they are absolutely solid tools. nothing wrong with them.
Dewalt is under performing heavily, especially when it comes to impacts. But i totally understand this mentality when you do specialized work and need several tools. So many end up stolen, lost, dropped in a barrel of waste oil, etc. Its like boat tools; you are not going to want to put your snapon ratchet underwater.
They are made in China
@@eagle94haslanded Your opinion on DeWalt sounds like bull crap
@@lexingtonconcord8751 watch the torque test channel and get back to me on that.

One thing i've learned is cheaping out on tools always end up costing more down the line because you always end up wanting the better option at the end of the day lol.
bro never thought id see a comment from u lol ive been subbed to for years homie me gusta
Not cheap tools affordable yes, if you watch tool tear downs on these harts most of their tools are made of the same quality and better than some makita and ryobi tools
Bxd I see you
This tool is from same company that make milaeukee’s , it’s good quality
Well this is a weird place to find you
The Hart brand is the truth. I'm slowly building up my equipment and I'm liking the Hart brand. I own the 20v power drill, drill bit set with 70 pieces and the circular saw so far. Fortunately, I got a battery with the drill, and the battery works with all the 20v equipment you get. They're affordable, powerful and they work. This is a great brand to start with if you are a beginner like me.
Hart drills are good for DIY I would buy one but I rarely ever use a drill I use one maybe every 5 years that’s why I’m not investing in a high quality drill because it would just sit in the toolbox and never get used.
I have so far.1- 1/2 drill, 2-3/8 drill. 1- 1/4 in driver and 1 brushless 1/4 in driver, 6 1/2 in circular saw, Reciprocating saw, 4 inch grinder, 2 radios,a tire inflator, 16 in push mower, Hybrid weedeater, Power inverter, and lots of batteries from 1.5ah to 6ah and a boat load of hand tools and ladders . i have not one complaint yet on any of my tools. just wish they made the metal roller tool box again. and maybe a battery only storage contractors case.
So far as a Walmart Associate I've started buying HART Products & on my budget & working there they have been a blessing with what projects I do handle around the house. I luv your reviews.
I agree- makes perfect sense if you don't have to use them everyday for a living. I think that's where it's a little different because this channel tends to cater to professional trades people. I'm using Makita or Milwaukee equipment that's being used every day solidly, a person doing home projects will probably never need that much usage. My mother does home projects and I steered her towards the Ryobi collection just because there's so much diversity in what they have- if you're just needing drills and drivers you're probably in about the same position buying at your work
Heck yeah!
Shawn if u got that discount card wait till black friday and get your kicker for working B/F 😉
My daughter bought me a Hart kit for my birthday. It has the drill, impact, reciprocating saw , flashlight and 2 batteries. So far I've been pretty impressed with this brand. It has plenty of power and battery life is pretty good.
Thanks for the input thinking about getting that same kit
I'm a Dewalt guy but I bought the reciprocating saw impact drill and flashlight and I was pleasantly surprised.
Im a hardcore diyer, framed my basement, built my own pole barn, deck, etc..... I started with ryobi and after a couple trips to the HD returning the brushed green tools because they were constantly burning up and smoking, I switched to Milwaukee and Dewalt....... best move I ever made. 6 years later, still using the same tools and batteries and they work like they did new!!!!! Ryobi, hart, bauer good for hanging pictures on walls and building shelves and other small stuff, but for building sheds, barns, decks, etc..... save the hastle and grab a Milwaukee and get down to business!
EXACTLY WHAT YOU GET FROM HART BUT THESE REVIEWS OVERBLOW AND OVERHYPE THIS BRAND AND OTHERS LIKE IT!! YOU BUY BRANDS LIKE THAT THEY'LL LAST AWHILE BUT THESE REVIEWERS GET IT WRONG ABOUT HART - WISHED I HAD READ MORE BEFORE I WATCHED THESE DAM CLOWNS GET ON HERE AND BOAST THIS CHEAP SHIT UP LIKE IT'S REALLY THAT GOOD AND DURABLE WHEN IT'S NOT ....PROBABLY PAID PEOPLE AT LEAST I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED ....HONESTY GUYS OR SHUT IT UP ...DIDN'T EVEN GET A YEAR OUT OF THAT 40V CHAINSAW I BOUGHT OF THEIRS AND NEVER AGAIN WASTE OF MONEY!!!!!!!
I received the HART box kit as a gift a few weeks ago. Complete with reciprocating saw, brushless impact, drill and flashlight. They work great. Impact driver did exactly what I needed it to do on my garage door bolts yesterday. I’m not racing anyone to drive screws into wood.
Like this attitude right here, long as it works even if it’s just a little slower who cares. Plus they offer a lifetime warranty.
Amen brother...I like hart too!!! I even got Walmarts hypertough impact gun and there impact drivers and they are great use em every day for 2 and a half years now!!!!
My mom bought me a 4 piece Hart set with the impact driver, drill, reciprocal saw, and flashlight that all run off the 2 batteries it came with for Christmas 2 years ago. The light is one of my favorites and I love using it. The tools all seem to be holding up great and I've become a bit of a Hart fan boy since. I'm slowly building my collecting of tools and Hart is my go to.
Same .. except I bought it for myself
i love the flashlight too lol
Same here I bought mine myself pairing with tip kit now have 7 peace stack box full of hart tools and accessories
I run a property management company and do most all the building maintenance, remodeling and upgrades. My first battery drill was a B&D, it did the job but it was very "clunky" and the batteries didn't last. When the last battery pack died, went to Ryobi One 18v on a whim.. couldn't resist the deal. 4 years later, rebuilding 5 units, building a house, decks, plus metal and auto work on a daily basis , I cant kill the thing. I have driven 10s of thousands of screws, bored holes with drill sizes that had no business in that drill, mixed countless buckets of concrete, mud, mortar and grout, lost it off the roof a few times, knocked it off the ladder more time than I can recall.. it really looks like it shouldn't work but runs just like it came out of the box. As this worked so well, bought a Ryobi jobsite table saw and wet saw, rugged quality. So, just bought a Ryobi drill driver and I wondered why I waited so long.... love the thing. Have other tools, Hitachi radial saw, Dewalt saws-all, Craftsman portable radial saw and so on.. all great quality long lasting tools and in my experience, the Ryobi is right there. Did look at the Hart tools out of curiosity and I may be wrong, but the build quality looks a bit off, kind of what you see in some HF tools. For the minimal price difference, I think I'll stick with what works!.
yeah and ryobi batteries are pretty cheap as compared to others
Hercules and Bauer from HF destroy Hart if you want bargain stuff
the few ryobi tools i have have been great tools as well. i have a jig saw router and a miter saw from them. i have nothing cordless however minus a weedeater i paid 5 bucks for. all my cordless tools are milwaukee.
@@jeffreyrigged yeah I tell you my ryobi battery chainsaw is so awesome no gas or cords in the way.
@@luvdady i prefer a gas chainsaw and weed eater over electric but for an electric this ryobi isnt bad. i use it as a backup for my stihl or for just a small odds and ends.
I bought the 24v max trimmer and blower combo and decided to invest in the 24v max line. Nothing but good things to say about them so far
I didn't scroll through all the comments but I can't help but notice that no one seems to remember that not too long ago the big orange box, yeah home depot, actually carried Hart before walmart and it was in Milwaukee red and black, not the blue and white walmart houses. Just thought I'd share that little gem for whatever it may be worth. Keep up the great work brother!
Well hart is owned by TTI so the same company that makes Milwaukee makes these hart tools and etc.
So same power tool, different colors and name, now I understand.
@NonLegit Nation I swung a red and black hart hammer for a couple of years. That's all the proof I've got and being that that specific hammer was left on my rear bumper one evening and gone the next morning I don't have it for pics. I remember it well due to the fact that the claws for pulling nails were extremely thick and odd shaped so I spent much time grinding them to something workable. If you need more proof, then I would simply ask, "who the hell are you?" I'm kidding. I'm not trying to prove a case. I speak the truth. Thanks for the comment.
@@bigdmccoy5507 dont forget Ryobi too
I bought the hart tool set and they work amazing I bought them for my 3 year old to use to make him feel like he's doing something when he wants to help daddy out
Lol, that made my day
The answer I was looking for.
wholesome af
Lmao
Love It.
My kids bought my husband the Hart driver and drill for Christmas because we bought a little house for cash. Boy, what a can of worms! We had to strip it to the studs, walls, floors, ceiling, new roof including plywood and metal. That driver and drill are still going strong. I'm thinking they will out last hubby!! 🤣 He has dropped them, thrown them, etc! 🤣🤣🤣 We would by them again! We give them 4 1/2 out of 5 stars because nothing perfect but they have been a blessing. We had no idea they would work so well or last so long!!
Gave a gift to a new homeowner. I ended up buying a 4 piece Milwaukee brushed set with free vacuum and circular saw. All for $349. I think the brushed Milwaukee is better than the Brushless Ryobi. The only real issue for a DIY person is that some of the Milwaukee bare tool prices are very high.
Been using Ryobi tools for years, haven’t had any issues and the ONE battery system is fine with me, I get the tools I need with the power I want and I don’t have to break the bank to do it. Glad to know the tech flows to the rest of the lines. Always fun to watch and listen
Hart tools are actually pretty darn good. I've been using mine for a year now for HVAC. Zero problems.
I also use Hart tools and I like them a lot
Bought the 4 tool kit a while ago so far no problems. Light but frequent use
They got to have some quality
You show up to my house to work on anything with a bag of HART tools and I'm kicking you out lol
@@mitchellarmyguy2515 tools dont make the skill bud.
I just accidentally happened upon your channel and I like that you provide a well rounded view of the topic at hand. I have subscribed and am looking forward to future videos. I personally research any tool I am buying and your channel will now be part of my consideration process. While I'm not looking to break the bank, I don't mind spending money on good tools and if I can save money, I'm happier yet. However, no matter what tools a person buys, if they don't take care of them, they won't get the value out of them they expect. I do wish more tools came with hard cases. I'm not a fan of the soft cases I more commonly see now. It would be great if the tool companies would provide buyers both options
I only have ryobi tools.... I been having them for years and still work great. Won't change any of them any time soon... Best price too.
No
@@salcisneros2244..... No???
Same here. Had nothing but good luck with Ryobi
Me too, I've already bought into the 18v system. It'll cost me a fortune to buy a new set
For cheap tools Ryobi is the best out there and has been for 20 years
Excellent advice and I have noticed the Hart Brand but never bought. Buying other brands at lower cost has never been a problem if you're not in a hurry. I'll wait for holiday sales gift cards and coupons if available.
Well, I bought the Ryobi 18V line of tools 10 years ago and used them on my job installing HVAC for years. They really took a beating over the years and it was the best investment in cordless tools for me. they still are running good too!
About how long would you say the 4AH batteries last before they break?
@@ilyas5708 I couldnt say, I only had one break due to a nail getting caught in the saw blade and shorting out the motor. Not the battery fault, crap happens.
@@ilyas5708 my oldest 4ah pack I still have in my daily use circulation has a 2014 date code, yes the runtime has gone down a bit but it still runs my impact driver for a week or so worth of service calls. Or about 20 minutes of cutting the thick uni-strut with the brushed angle grinder vs about 35 with the newest.
I've had ryobi tools for years. Did the job pretty well. Switching over to Milwaukee m12 tools and not regretting the decision. In fact my m12 fuel tools are just as powerful of not more than the ryobi 18v
Your comparing a freaking ryobi t Milwaukee tool lmao really ryobi is home owner crap Milwaukee is top of the line contractor grade
I did read about this online somewhere else, regarding the maker of Milwaukee making these. I decided to spring for some of their stuff and see how it works. I’m perfectly pleased as I have several of their items now. I have tools to compare them to, with most of my tools being from Dewalt. With these newer lithium ion batteries, the companies that cater more to DIY/entry-level have really been able to step up their game, including Hart, Black & Decker, hyper tough, and countless Chinese knock-offs, among others. The batteries are actually making the tools last longer and work better and many are pretty good if you’re just doing jobs around the house. A Black & Decker tool built today is way way better than a similar B&D tool I bought back in the 90’s. It’s just that trickle down/progress you were talking about. Dewalt makes so many of the other power tool company’s stuff. As you said, Milwaukee does the same. In doing so, that technology just transfers down the line eventually. I have several heart tools now and sprung for the four port charger. I’m satisfied with everything. I’ll never give up my Dewalt stuff, but this stuff is good too. One difference I see when comparing contractor grade to DYI under this name, are things like the four port charger. Whereas a Dewalt or Ryobi charger will charge 4 batteries SIMULTANEOUSLY, this Hart charger Will HOLD four batteries but charge them sequentially in the order you have attached them (1 at a time). Thus, taking more time. For me, this is not an issue so I really don’t care, but a contractor would never be able to work with this. Just some subtle differences to think about if you’re going to try to push this line beyond its intended market/application. Overall, I’m happy with everything so far and very pleased for what it is.
Also, I’m going to jump on what another commentor said here. Please compare both of the Walmart brands together/against each other. Hart versus Hyper Tough. Just for fun to see how they stack up. It’s rare, but I have noticed a couple things about the hyper tough line that were actually built stronger than the Hart line, particularly the cordless circular saw. Maybe the internals of the Hart are better, but I’m a big fan of as many metal parts as possible over plastic. Weight of a power tool does not concern me. If you’re too weak to lift a drill or saw you probably shouldn’t be in construction.
Did you know that Black and Decker and Dewalt are owned by Stanely Tools.
@@mikecurtis4463
Yes I did. As well as Craftsman, Porter Cable, Bostitch, Irwin, and countless others I can’t even think of right now. Used to take classes of design students on tours there years ago and would see all types of brands under the same roof. Really cool stuff.
@@mikecurtis4463 thats cool , i didnt know that
I bought a harts tool set and the ratchet is so darn smooth, I just feel like it’s getting hate cause it’s sold at Walmart, now I can’t say anything about the electronic trolls, but average tools like wrenches, ratchets and non electrical equipment, Harts really isn’t bad
Yeah, I have the ratchets and mechanics tool set and all that. The only power tool I have from hart is their electric screwdriver. I actually love their wrenches and ratchets.
That's exactly what's happening Papa Whisk! I've only got the drill bc I have a compact Milwaukee impact. If not for that I wld have both.
So I bought a Hart 1/2" drill, not bc I was at WM either.
I actually went to Lowes looking for a combo set bc sales looked ok on a few good brands. I think Dewalt and Skil (decent tool).
Here's the problem with those 2 sales.
1. I looked around 45 min or so, waiting on/trying to get help w availability bc prices weren't clearly marked.
2. Help didn't come!
3. Went to fastener isle for help w/4.5-5" screws and combo set.
4. Guy working that isle? Well...I found my own screws bc he kept insisting bolts? I'm wiring on 60yo shudders 👌🤣💩
5. Went to power tool area, didn't have Skil combo, or single drill that's in combo. Only the bulkiest drill they make for 25 more.
6. Didn't have Dewalt combo either. Only (1) 4 or 5 to set for almost 300 more. Or the (2) step up LI battery w/more 5 or 10 more V (175 more).
6. Above mentioned combo (1) only had 4 tools (unless you consider a speaker a tool). Knock off 75 and keep that shit, or give me 5 damn tools!
7. Last and definitely close to least!Only other comparably price was Shafts-man. I don't need a battery to last me 4hrs but need 1 tha last more than 10 min!
So finally fed up I say screw you Lowes! Only got a couple things that I didn't think I cld find at WM. Drove a mile to WM, got toiletries and stopped at tool section. The things I didn't think I cld get (sandpaper, x-long bit) WM had both, same brand sandpaper 5 bucks less and decent bits.
Decided on the ½" 20v drill, hat to go to sporting goods to get car open but had what I needed in few min. Dude (older gent) was straight up when I asked questions about the product, said sorry man but I don't have a clue, sorry!
I sd fck it and rolled dice.
Final thoughts on HART; for the price, I have zero complaints!
I spent 5+ yrs in industrial maintenance, used Milwaukee.
Hart ½" 20v drill isn't far behind Milwaukee in power at all.
Battery, not quite there yet. Although they're decent, just can't hang to the life of Milwaukee (⅔) may be a stretch. Luckily I don't need hours of battery bc I'm not hammering ¾" × 3" or larger bolts at 200-380 ft lbs or torque.
If you just need a good drill at a good price, they have one for you. Combo with 1 battery though? They can keep that bullshit! I'll be emailing my opinion on that for shits n giggles to see how cust service responds if nothing else. CS is usually the main reason I stay with a certain brand of anything. Imo, thats a gamechanger on future purchases.
Sorry for the long winded gripe on Lowes w/short n sweet review on tools. 🤷🏻♂️
How do they compare to Ryobi and kobalt?
Got a pretty decent Dewalt set for Black Friday. $300 for brushless impact, drill, oscillator, orbital sander, a brushed 6½ circular saw, 2 and 4ah batteries, (not fast... one battery slot) charger, and carry bag. Not sure if they'll bring it back. Only downside is I think Dewalt overcharges for their batteries (bought a cheap pair of chinesium knockoffs one of em overheated and failed... still maybe worth it lol). Probably gonna get and fix old Dewalt packs.
Man there was a lot of talking in this video and didn’t really say much.
Don't shop at Walmart.
That’s why I paused the video to see comments! Thanks
That's all of his videos
@@lanemendenhall7469 I'm going to block this boys videos from showing uo on my feed. There are lots of good tool videos if that is what you want.
Yea us New Yawkers like to hear ourselves talk but not say much. Lol.
Happy to see new stuff getting reviewed, but I don’t regret picking up the Dewalt Atomic kit of two drills and two batteries for $165 two weeks ago.
The atomic kit is super sweet love mine too
I have Dewalt tools that are 20 years old and still work. I've owned all manufacturers and honestly always go back to Dewalt.
The old dewalt are good, the new ones are not as good.
Do you want a cookie
Nickie B what kind of cookies
@@jerichoron did anyone say cookie?
@@lancer717 yes
Hart has just about every tool you need, from driving a screw to cutting grass. Very good quality and very happy with mine. Ryobi is a good tool but Hart is taking over. Just as I found from my coworkers who talked me into Hart. I also have Dewalt and see no difference!
That's cause DeWalt is overrated. I'm sorry if your offended but their drills are over rated for nothing but I will say this dealt does have some good interesting power and non power tools accessories.
@@macho.3088 yeah they are tbh!
@@couchiman3838 hey buddy can you please tell me what is TBH ?
@@macho.3088 dewalt is extremely over rated, people just love to feel good when they waste so much money on expensive shit
I like Ryobi. They are not for someone who uses the tools to make a living, but for at home DIY stuff they are great. The wide selection of tools is nice and HD always has good deals on them.
@@A6Legit I've seen some contractors using Ryobi tools, so I know it's not impossible, but still think if they are going to use them often like that and have to depend on them that they should consider using some higher grade tools just to be on the safe side.
I think it all depends on what you plan on doing and what the availability is of each tool brand. Every brand runs some kinda deal.. I would rather hold onto my money and wait until one of the big brands does a crazy sale like the hammer drill impact combo your talking about. Milwaukee is running deals right now. I love my Milwaukee tools... almost as much as Nick likes his DeWalt stuff lol. Awesome video as always bro 👌👊👍. Keep up the good work vellas. Just picked up a new Occidental leather tool belt setup today. Looking forward to putting it to work tomorrow!!!
Dewalts bo longer in the talk with milaukee. Have to talk hilti or bosch for that.
My Mom bought her first set of apartments when I was 18 months old. I am now 66 years old, and I have been working on rentals for over 50 years. That's not like being a contractor and using tools 10 hours a day 6 days a week, but I use them more than the average DIYer. When battery operated tools were first out, I decided to try one, then as they improved, I bought others, usually choosing what was on sale. After a while I had so many different brands that used different batteries. It was a pain!! I switched over to Ryobi One+ 18 volt system and I could just keep the batteries charged and use them on any of the tools. At first, I would buy the extended warranty at HD, but I stopped because I have never had one break down!! I still have and use the old blue Ryobi drill that I got many years ago. Now, they have so many tools in the system, that I can buy anything I need and know that I can trust it. I think that you are right about Heart expanding their line, but that's only if Wally sells enough of these intro kits.
I have been using Ryobi tools since 2006 when I was doing contractor work and they have held up just as well as a lot of the DeWalt tools out there. This is just what I have noticed after using them for almost 15 years now.
Truth
I went all Ryobi... for finish carpentry they're fine. Using them for demo and framing destroyed a few tools. Motors burnt out on recip saw, circular saw and multi tool. They smoked a bit, then that was it. The circular saw ran again for a while, smoked again and that was it.
I previously bashed HART tools in the comments on this page but I have to admit, Vince, You have made me curious. I've been doing some research on the side and I've discovered that these tools are actually a good value for the every day homeowner. Heck, they even have some pretty good reviews! I personally wouldn't purchase them because I depend on my tools to make me money (I did have an opportunity to use the HART advanced stud finder and it worked better than any Zircon I have ever used) but if I were simply a DIY guy at home working on my Honeydo list, I would seriously consider them!
Keep the reviews coming!
9:04 good video bro good video this is the reason I started following you and sub. Thanks a lot for sharing whit all of us out there really appreciate all the info and tips you share
Thank you for the awesome feedback Edwin!
I got a 220ish piece HART drill / driver bit set in a nice case for $18 at Walmart. It's been great. You don't want to turn it upside down because the bits will fall out and mix all over the inside of the box when closed. Other than that, AWESOME.
purchased the 3 set of quarter 3/8 and half inch socket adapters too. Have abused them thoroughly and they've held up.
I know this is an older video but I love my hart ecosystem so much. Sure I might be a few hundred bucks in but I have so many tools for basically all jobs and a lot of batteries. I got their vacuum, a bunch of power tools, lights, portable vacuum (perfect for vacuuming my car and it saves money), soon I'll have my own cordless washer so I can wash my car at my apartment, etc. I also have their heated jacket for the winter so I rotate batteries through the week. The quality is impressive.
I do notice when you buy the kits they're often on sale and it's much cheaper to buy the kits or combos so you can get batteries or tools for cheap, buying the tools or batteries by themselves is much more expensive.
I love the new look that the HART line brings. I hate that the quality isn't better. Thanks for the info.
25 years ago, I was working as a carpenter building custom homes, and 90% of the drills, and reciprocating saws on the job site were Milwaukee. my sawzall was corded, but still the top tool to have. another guy had a makita reciprocating saw, and thought his was better. so when we had to cut the 72 1-1/2" anchor bolts after putting the sill plate on, we started side by side and went opposite directions. I burned a couple blades that day, but I was well past the middle when we met up, and his saw was hot to the touch and smoking, mine was cool, and still purring like a kitten.
Remember, back in the day, Makita was the cheapie line of tools..
Cool story bro
I recently bought a few different hart tools. Impact driver, wrench and drill. Love them all. Now I’ve been grabbing a few different tools since I needed a update in my old tools. Good stuff
The Mexican cartels use cordless tools for torturing snitches...
Man i love the Milwaukee tools. The cordless ratchet is was got me in to that brand since i do auto collision repair. I even gave my dewalt impact driver and drill kit to by buddy so i could go to the Milwaukee M18 tools as well. Best cordless tools i have used so far.
I have the 1/2 Drill Driver Circular Saw light combo, the 1/2 Impact, and the Angle Grinder. I wanted to get into some power tools to get into woodworking. I'm fairly satisfied thus far! Thanks for the video, even though I am fairly familiar obviously.
How much did the combo cost you?
I got the set with the drill impact driver sawzall and light with 2 batteries. I’ve been happy with everything so far
A lot of great information and things to think about! Thank you for making this video!
For the time being anyway, the Makita subcompact kit for $199.00 may be the best deal. And they seem to be the same price no matter who you buy them from. I use mine all the time and sometimes for hours on end, either in the shop or at a job, and they've been perfect just like all my Makita tools have been. Also, many Walmart and Home Dept stores either share the same parking lot or they're pretty close to each other.
i have most of my tools from makita , and for 7 years i never had to replace or fix them, now thinking of buying a weed eater from makita, just not sure if it will do the job, i am serching about it.
Clearly this guy gets paid by the minute.
LOL
So if he does
😂😂😂
Yup called monetization
@@trendroid2 Thanks! Would you please explain to me how that works? Thank you in advance.
I haven't tried HART power tools, but I have had NO complaints with their 215-Piece Mechanics Tool Kit that I snagged as an "Half Price Open Box" clearance special for just $47 during the Black Friday Week Sale last November. All it was missing was the outer cardboard packaging wraparound one throws away anyhow. I suppose someone just wanted a look inside. I didn't really _need_ that kit, but for that price, I simply couldn't pass it up, and am now glad to have that crazy big assortment of regular and especially deep sockets, extensions and adapters in all three drive sizes, ¼, ⅜ and ½. Later, really just for a gag and to test the Lifetime Warranty, I even warrantied its ⅜" drive ratchet by phone totally fuss-free. The ratchet itself was actually working fine--lovely in fact, with buttery 90 tooth smoothness. It's just that its quick socket release doodad was a bit loose in the grip...but it still works fine like any old school ratchet without such a socket release button. Still, they just mailed me a nice fresh one within a week. No exchange or return necessary. So yeah, I'd be well inclined to give future HART gear a shot.
They have the 275pc mechanics tool set for $98 periodically through the year and Black Friday which is 1 step above the 215pc. I had to get it.
One point on his mention about #2 Phillips bits and "cam out" etc. Don't forget that the Phillips bit style was originally engineered for early/easier release unlike square or star. And the fastener itself has as much or more to do with engagement than the bit does. The bit, to be able to be called a "Phillips" bit has to meet particular, patented, design standards.
Hey Vince...great video ...the way you deliver really drives it home...looked at heart...
but then saw your Craftsman vids...Craftsman line up for me...would like to see Craftsman impact go against Milwaukee imact on TTR...stay safe
Ive been a craftsman/sears consumer for a very long time. I've used both brands for extended periods on various jobsites and craftsman will not touch a milwaukee. i would consider craftsman on the same level as ryobi, and milwaukee & makita on same level. imho.
craftsman is now black and decker , the hand tools are relabeled stanley wrenches and sockets.
save your $
@@luvdady black decker sucks I used the impact wrench too remove 4 bolts and it broke on the second bolt on the first day I used it
I'm not a heavy duty user but I love my Ryobi stuff. Does what I need it to do for reasonable money. Battery life is good and batteries are easy to get. Just my 2¢.
I did residential & commercial construction and some of the best tools I ever had were Ryobi. They HAD a portable table saw that I missed for years when it was stolen and the replacement version wasn't anywhere near as good
Junk.
I do HVAC work and currently running the heart brushless tool system and so far have had no issues but I will be picking myself up a set of Milwaukee brushless
I love these tools, just got the 2 gallon sprayer. People are in awe when I break out the leaf vacuum.
very good video, I got a Hart vs Ryobi coming up soon.
The M12 Fuel killed that Makita! Awesome video!
Back in the day, (60's) Ridgid put out a pin up calendar with the slogan "Every man needs a Ridgid tool"
I have been using RYOBI for many years and find them to be great tools, I am not sure I want another brand but HART does seem an interesting proposition!
Junk.
I have a Hart reciprocating saw.
It works great. Very easy to tie a knot around, and it doesn’t seem to bother the fish when I use it.
I have a hart 4 volt screwdriver, and I love it so far. My drill died and I used it to drill 4 holes in a cinder block wall, it was slow but it didn't skip a beat.
I’ve used Ryobi for years and they work for my needs quite well. HD is my happy place!
Amen brother
Their Japanese, which means I can trust the numbers on the packaging.
Don't support HD based on their politics and them being a huge supporter of the immoral portion of our society.
@@getsum697 they also donate and help military veteran causes. One the biggest job highers of veterans and they give me 10 percent off all my purchases for being a veteran

I do t look at hart tools but thanks vince I didn’t know fart I mean Hart was taking away a battery. Thanks vcg 👍👍🤙🤙🤟😎🤣🤣👋🎉🥳😎🤟🤗😂👌🙏
I have that hart tool combo kit and impact. So far I am pleased.
I have a Ryobi drill driver set. Have owned it for close to a decade. I'm a home DIY'er so the set suits me fine and performs well for what I need it to do.
I just bought a Hart 10 gallon shop-vac to replace an old unit that's about worn out. It works well, it's quieter than the old vac and the price was very competitive.
I've always been a fan of Ryobi tools. They basically pioneered the vision of "One battery for all the stuff" and it shows. They've only recently added a 40 volt system for some of their heavy duty tools like lawn care and portable saws. Now if only they followed DeWalt's example and made the 40 volt batteries cross-compatible with 18 volt tools... They'd dominate the handyman market
Ryobi=Junk
Dude, Mikita has had the "One battery for all the stuff" going on for decades, followed shortly thereafter by Dewalt. Long before Ryobi was even being sold at Home Depot here in the states. That was one of the main reasons I made the switch from my old Porter Cable gear back in the late '80s, so I could have the convenience of having multiple tools using one type of battery and charger instead of different chargers and batteries for my different tools.
Not arguing that, but Ryobi offered the most rapidly expanding inventory of tools that used the same battery. Most other brands either used multiple battery types, or a smaller selection
I've never had an issue with Ryobi at all. I have the 40v system and everything that goes with it works great. I have the small electric pressure washer. It's a beast for what it is.
Ryobi is homeowner quality not to be confused with long haul work site tools like Milwaukee, Makita and Dewalt. There are even more upscale choices from those 3 but the prices are way higher for the same or slightly better quality.
Brushed Milwaukees are better than some of the lower end diy brushless tools.
Yep, I have brushed DeWalt and it's got basically the Same power as the cheaper new stuff i tried, Lol.
My set of 18v DeWaalt power tools were needing new batteries since they weren't holding charges very well. I purchased some of the Hart line up including drills, air compressor, orbital buffer, saber saw, jigsaw, circular saw, spot light, work light. rotary tool, power converter, vacuum, and more and have been very impressed by them all! Needless to say, I sold all my DeWalt tools!
I work as a supervisor in the hardware dept at Walmart...this info is very helpful. Myself I have purchased the 40v lawnmower., string trimmer, and 10 inch pruner attachment. Amazing and very satisfied..even after having an 80v kobalt chainsaw....I'm telling its def worth the $$. Eventhough the Hart line may seem expensive, and I am a big diyer...I think the line is worth the investment.
Porter Cable guy myself. Live by them along with Hitachi
Ryobi is the way to go for entry level DIY. So much value with a lot of options if you can live with the color.
Hart Is Owned by Same Company
The same company that makes Hart also makes Ryobi and Milwaukee.
I bought the 4 piece brushless combo kit for 300 and it came with a 4 amp and a 2 amp, skilsaw, impact, drill and flashlight, I use them everyday and today I used my impact to drive 4 inch 3/8 lag bolts into studs about 20 of them… did them all and was just a little warm. So impressed and honestly worth my money
I build a porch with hart 🤣 impact drill and skilsaw drove 6" 3/8 lags no problem I agree we'll worth the money for them jig saw and grinder work good too
I just got the same exact brushless kit for $150 and only paid $135 after associate discount. I already had all the brushed versions but couldn't pass up the chance to upgrade for the price.
got the mower and edger combo at walmart (they had it priced online for $100 less, so they had to honor it), and also picked up a grass blower because it came with an extra battery and charger. I still use them today and it saves on fuel and maintenance on a gas mower and having cordless tools to use doing lawn work is great
I used to like my gas lawn implements but totally for what most people have as far as a lawn the cordless stuff is so nice. I got the weed wacker, blower, chainsaw and hedge trimmer. Its especially nice to have the cordless stuff that you dont use very often because there wont be any issues with it when you go to trim your bushes maybe once or twice a year or pull out the chainsaw to cut up some firewood or trim up a tree a few times a year.
Ryobi has some tools for yard work too, which are useful for a home owner. Things like leaf blowers, weed whackers, and hedge trimmers.
They have lawn mowers as well.
I'm a half decent DIYer (Cars and Learning Construction Right Now From UA-cam for home repair 😅). I like how you present things and offer an opinion that resonates with me. You gained a new subscriber today!
Anyway, I went with the Milwaukee M18 Fuel line of powertools. I didn't own any powertools up until about a month ago, so I just wanted the best. I spent about a week researching forums, watching UA-cam videos, reading tens of thousands of UA-cam comments, and asking professionals what's the best out there. Everything pointed to Milwaukee, DeWalt, Makati, and Bosch. I narrowed the list down even more buy looking at product line, warranty, and the potential uses for me (Car, Home, and Possibly Weekend Only Contractor). The only two that survived all the cuts were Milwaukee and DeWalt. I have to say that the M18 Fuel line of tools are AMAZING! The power and battery life rock!
Home Depot just ran a huge Milwaukee sale a few weeks back. I just got a nice tax return. You know how the rest goes 😁.
I appreciate all your feedback, sounds like you made some good choices!! 👍🏻
I was using ryobi stuff but their tools just didnt do the work I needed so my first tool was a brushed impact kit from milwaukee and I loved it now most of my power tools are Milwaukee fuel expensive AF but worth it %110
See, I had my eyes on the Milwaukee also.
All I had to do was read Your comment! 😉👍 thanks dude!
@@Scottocaster6668 Over 1/2 year in on owning all Milwaukee M18 Fuel tools and a few random Dewalt stuff (Spade Handle for mixing). Not one problem so far and doubt I will ever need to use the warranty. I did find that Dewalt has a better milter and table saw. Might just get the Milwaukee versions of these two saws if I can find some amazing deal. If you haven't picked a tool brand go Milwaukee. You will not regret it but it will cost a ton of $$$.
Dewalt set, drill and impact driver, two batteries (20vt), charger and bag. Just under 2 bills. And I love them.
I bought a Hart drill , standard batt, cheap model. I am well pleased !! Used the drill on a project, put it away with out charging it. Went back several weeks later to use it again thinking I would need to charge the battery, to my surprise it had not discharged but was full of pep as if was already charged. Much better than the drills I bought at Harbor Freight that always seemed to go dead with out being used, 5 stars for Hart !! I will now be looking to buy a driver.
Great informative video Vince. I work as a diesel and trailer mechanic for a nonprofit organization, most of our shop tools are DeWalt and do their jobs well enough. I've wondered how well the Hart line of tools compares with Ryobi and Milwaukee, this video has answered those questions.
I would be very interested in finding out how these lesser expensive line of tools compare to top self brands like Snap-On, Cornwell, and Matco. You know, the guys that drive around in tool trucks?
I have a Snap-On 3/8 drive brushless impact driver kit, came with a charger, two batteries and storage bag. Paid over 500 for it. It's a fairly decent tool for lite work, but not impressive.
I used to drive a truck and have picked up and delivered a lot of tools over the years. What a lot of people don't realize is a lot of brand name tools are made by the same people. Once I picked up and delivered to a company that made brand name sockets. I walked around their facility and watched how they made them. I delivered boxes of blank sockets all different sizes. They would dump a box into a hopper and they would come down a chute to a machine that stamped the brand into the side of the socket. Some said Snap-on, SK Wayne, Craftsman just to name a few. There were around 15 to 20 machines all stamping different brand names on the same sockets. A lot of people think a brand name company makes all their own tools but that's just not the case. This day and time a lot of these name brand companies have bought each other out and will keep them separate but will cross-fit their technology to improve one or the other brands. It's hard to decide who has the best tool anymore. They all have their good side and their flaws. Price seems to be the determining factor in a lot of cases anymore. It boils down to what price you can afford.
Dewalt tools sucks
@@hmsdemolition8588 Only trouble I've had out of them is changing battery styles. That really chaps me off . But never any problem with the tools. What is your beef with them and what tools do you prefer ? I will say this , you do need to carry 5 ah batteries with them.
As usual you have informed us all. I have a Milwaukie taste but im on the ryobi/kobalt budget.... lol. Thanks for giving use the info to decide and places to find the deals..
Interesting thing is: Milwaukee produces Hart, Ridgid, Ryobi...in those cost ranges. And Ryobi is actually where the RnD takes place, if you pay attention all the 'New' tools Milwaukee has, came to Ryobi first, and are appearing for Ridgid now.
Kobalt is Dewalt as well.
Ryobi tools are actually decent tools, and often cheaper than the prices shown here. Not hard to find parts for them if you break one, either (like one of the more expensive tools - the cheap ones you can just buy the bare tool). I've had ridgid, dewalt and ryobi stuff. I've got about 9 ryobi batteries now and haven't had a tool quit, nor a battery in almost 10 years. Had more expensive ridgid stuff before then and two of four ridgid batteries crapped out and one of the drills died in less than two years. Orange is overpriced junk.
Saw the Hart line of tools at W.M. just had never heard of them before..... Thanx for the insite!!!
I have the heart line of tools to include the drill, impact driver, sander, rotary tool, 6-in polisher, and the fast charger. Their lineup is very expansive and they're brushless tools are quite good. I have completely restored a boat using all of these tools to include even sanding the entire hull multiple times. All of the tools have held up great and performed very well.
I love my heart brushless impact and drill. I use it every single day at work for the past 5 months and runs like a champ. Thanks heart 💙
Do you get made fun of?
yea RIGHT........you ain't "working" with this tool, unless you're drilling holes for cable TV or some bullshit EASY work, period!!!
Hey, Tool Snobs......this Hart line of tools is for the home-gamer.... for a vast majority of homeowners these tools will work great. For example, I have purchased Harbor Freight Table, Miter and Recip Saws and added Diablo-brand blades and for my infrequent use, the cuts are quick and clean as clean can be. To add a "specialty" tool, I would have no problem with Hart. I stand back, the job is solidly done and I have a larger selection of tools (for the cost) than I would have if I had went strictly with Makita, DeWalt, Milwaukee etc.... Bang for Buck, baby !
I saw those in the store.
Some are now not available in the store.
Yeah, but why not spend the extra few dollars and by something that (1) will last longer and out perform, and (2) doesn’t support China Mart
Finally someone gives Hart some love. Ive been building my Hart collection. Ive got quite a bit now for so cheap as well. They are great. You can tell that the same company that makes Milwaukee tools put just as much care and craftsmanship into the Hart brand
Just bought Hart combo kit drill n impact drill 4.5 in power saw n two 20 v battery n 50 piece accessory 149.95 the drill very powerful circular saw used battery to fast but overall very useful for every use
I would not buy Hart tools just for the fact Walmart sells it.
Same
@Tony Brown they don't, but it's the principle
ohh come on man have a heart lmao
@Tony Brown walmart is the downfall of small business just like amazon. No more mom and pop stores especially after the scamdemic is ovee
Dumb!
I honestly would recommend hart bits over most other brands. I love them. Using dewalt Milwaukee and other brands I go for the hart first. Just love them and can’t beat the price !
I actually just bought a bunch of hart bits the other day lol. Haven't got to use them yet.
I usually buy corded used tools, bought the 20 dollar hyper tough at walmart with the built in battery to use on my car though for some rust removal. Can't sink a screw through a pre-drilled hole but it took all the rust off with a brush and a decent amount of lateral force on the chuck from pressing the brush all over my frame and differential housing. Was able to use an extension and really get in there and there's still no wobble, which is more than I can say for the more powerful black and decker cordless I had twenty years ago.
I own the hart tools pack the one with two battery's paid 74 dollars for package. I just do small things around the house when needed and work on my dirtbike with them and they are fantastic tools. Going to get the weed wacker for my yard this summer outstanding tools so far. If I get 5 years out of them great they paid for themselves. Not to expensive to were I can't go get another tool charger battery. Love them
Wow that guy running the ryobie is really excitable, he better watch out he doesn’t have a heart attack one day lol..
You mean a HART attack 😅🤣😂
I've used Milwaukee and loved them, but I mostly use Ryobi for the bottom line... money! I haven't tried Hart. I have seen them at Walmart and watched this wondering about their quality. I do a lot of remodel work and as it stands I'll stick with my stable of Ryobi and Milwaukee. Thanks & thumbs up.
They look cheap to me and feel even cheaper in my hand. They cost to much too. I'd soner get the higher end harbor freight line than heart stuff. Atleast the Hercules stuff feels like its made well, and costs a good bit less.
Yeah I got the six piece Ryobi combo for 199 and then got the fan and 2 batteries later for 99 and there's no way you could get that much from Hart right now with that kind of money.
I dont live anywhere near a home depot so I go with hart, mostly for the super available cheap batteries. I always pick them up when they're on sale for a steal. Last week I got a 2 pack of 2 amp hour batteries for $60 and about a year ago i grabbed a 2 pack of the 4 amp hour batteries for $80. I've never had so many batteries for my tools like this and it's so nice. Same goes for the tools themselves, they often go on sale and that's the time to buy
I got an electric Hart lawnmower and I love it. My only complaint would be the battery lasts about 30-40 minutes, but I can deal with that. No other problems with it after 6 months it works amazing. 🤞
I'm more confused than ever! I'm sticking with my Makita tools.
Still have and use a Makita cordless drill from 1993/4
Ive found sticking with makita ,Milwaukee, or dewalt the big 3 a person will be happy with the tools they buy.
You too? I thought I was the only person left who buys Makita. Hahaha
@@jackhanson6390 First cordless drill , Makita , First NiCd battery , Makita , First Li Ion battery , Makita , Forged steel gears in grinder , Makita , rest use powder metal .
And the same benefit that only Hilti has , you can still get batteries for a 25 year old Makita tools , as spare parts .
Makita also makes lot of factory assembly line tools , without all the TPE rubber crap , sadly those cost an arm and a leg .
Bought a dewalt 4" grinder 150.00 4" harbor freight 10.00 dollar on sale 4" grinder. Dewalt 4 months. Harbor freight. 6 and half years hard abuse before I killed it.
I looked at hart tools when I was looking for a new drill and impact. I used their impact bits on my harbor freight Bauer impact and decided against it. Kept rounding out screws with every bit I used. Decided to go with Dewalt for the price. Got the dewalt atomic 20v brushless kit for $220 out the door. Would’ve cost $200 to get the Hart with tax. Might as well go with the Dewalt for that price difference.
I don't go to Walmart often, but recently i couldn't find something that i was looking for in the usual places. Just happened upon Walmart while driving a friend to the DVM.
Anyway while i was passing through looking for my stuff. I passed by an isle of Hart tools. And of course, having used power tools for so many years, i had to inspect them a bit. They seemed solid, like they would hold up with other brands, but the price made me wonder...
Guess I'll give them a shot. I'll keep them as backup and for little home jobs, test it out. Cheap enough. It's just that the REAL test comes with time. If there's plastic gears inside that wear down then i guess you get what you pay for, so maybe I'll open them up and look for myself. If they last longer than the others... then it's a good deal.
I actually use the brushed hart impact driver in my automotive class and actually does really good with taking lugs off and bolts and other things.
Milwakee are beasts, I use ryobi as a cabinet installer, they offer every tool and power I need, plus their cordless nailers are really great going in 2 story homes and installing crown and molding
Just buy the Milwaukee when it’s on sale, never have to worry again 🤘🏻
@ What does that have to do with anything? So is most stuff, so is hart, makita is assembled in china, so are iphones.
@@mattk6827 i replied to the wrong comment but it was suppose to be in response to someone calling Hart China crap.
Milwaukee now made in Korea and has turned to crap.
@@mattk6827 but you can buy made in Japan makitas, can you buy made in usa Milwaukee?
Yup
I am a Dewalt Guy I like Milwaukee to❤️💯
I would agree. I don't regularly use power tools but it makes sense to use the same brands as professionals who use them to earn their living.
I buy dewalt accessories for my milwaukee tools but I dont buy dewalt power tools but the larger yard tools are fine.
Thanks, I saw the display when I was looking for my BOSS (she was buying something we didn't need...again), and I was curious as to how they would compare quality wise and how tough they really are compared to everything else on the market. I'll stick to El home - cheapo and check out the holiday deals instead, Makita seems to be the bench mark still.
I personally own Ridgid, Ryobi, Milwaukee and a few Hart tools. The Hart brand is great for smaller jobs, primarily because of the battery charge time and battery life. Hart does make a good tool however. Ridgid provides the best warranty, though you pay a much higher price for the tool brand. TTI is the Manufacturer for Hart, Ryobi, Milwaulkee and Ridgid brand lables. The internal construction of these various brands differ the specific tool you need.
Man I really miss the Bostitch brand that Walmart had before Hart tools.
Still using Bostitch drill, at 6 or 7 yrs, with the original batteries.
I hate that walmart replaced all the name brands like crescent, Irwin, Stanley, komeleon and other brands like that all with hart tools
@@alcopower5710 just like the hart vaccum they replaced the Stanley with
In Canada we dont even have Hart. We have a couple of Skil powertools, a Hypertough drill and all the bits and hand tools are made by a company named WorkPro, who apparently has decent tools but specifically made really cheap quality (a step above dollarstore drillbits) crap for Wal-Mart Canada.
@Geoffrey Morrison nah Milwaukee tools are worth the money
Yeah but all those brands are just names. Hardly any connection to their roots anymore.
@@alphaclean3364 yup they're all made by the same factory
HI VCG Construction. i knew the info but, yeah love the new info!
I have drill,impact,circular saw, jig saw ,multi tool and grinder been very impressed even 4volt driver works good
With rigid, kobalt, Ryobi, and hercules out there I just don't see Hart tools bring that great of a value right now.
I think it all depends on packaging and sales offers. I sold tools at the local Big Box Orange store for more than a while, and I can see a definite advantage to the everyday homeowner depending on what tool you need.
even Dewalt 20v brushless tools go on sale for less than these Hart tools many times throughout the year.
Kobalt makes some OK, and then some absolute shit like screwdrivers and allen wrenches that strip out bolt heads and round over.
kobalt visegrips .... soft stampings that deform
On a jobsite that pissed me off. I will never use anything kobalt no matter how cheap, my time is valuable, free isnt worth the time to extract a broken bolt.
I dont have time to play the guessing game with kobalt over powertools
.
Thankfully Craftsman is now sold at Lowes, best screwdrivers & socket sets for the money, Ive been using some of the same crafstman ratchet drivers & sockets in industrial maintenance 15 years now, dropped countless times, even put them on impact wrenches when I didnt have impact sockets the size.
Kobalt may be ok for a home-owner running a hole in drywall on a weekend, on a jobsite I would treat them as disposable tools.
I still have some Blue Ryobi and am a Ryobi fan as I am a DIYer. As to switching to Hart I wouldn't.. and I really like the Milwaukee tools for contractor grade.
