Eric Schmidt is a crazy left winger - I wouldn't buy anything from hazard fraught.

To all the haters in the world I have agood amount of ICON, only bought with 20% off coupons. I also have Dayton, Craftsman usa Snap on, Diamond and Williams. I appreciate all the tools I have and do not abuse any of them. My worst tool is a good and important as the worst. Be proud of what you have and use it to your best ability, I still enjoy watching your channel weather I agree or not. jb

THEY ARE THE EXACT SAME well mostly, kinda, basically, almost. Lol

I work as a diesel mechanic and have been abusing my icon sets for two years now and have had not one issue. Everyone can buy what they want im just putting in my two cents having used these tools in my trade and they have performed just as good as any tool truck brand my coworkers have.

22 years turning wrenches, I'm done with tool trucks! Inevitably the tool breaks the day after the truck is at the shop, the next week the tool is not on the truck, two weeks after that the tool MIGHT show up. Ain't nobody got time for that!!!The amount of Harbor Freight tools in my box has increased over the years as I wait for my "quality" replacements to arrive several weeks later. Why would I pay 3-4 times as much for the same warranty and poorer quality service?! Don't even get me started on the tool boxes! 10k plus in debt on a home for your tools?! But whatever floats yer boat right?

Harbor Frieght thanks you for spending 100 bucks to complain about them, even tho it burned your nostrils to be in the store.

They look like 50% of the sets out there. Maybe EP auto is not ICON.

They say icon life time warranty. Take one back. You will not get a cash refund. Even if it's broken.

2A ALL DAY!!

I wish he would have opened it up. Maybe the gears would have been better on the Icon. Sometimes, you have to look under the hood to know what you have.

Ah yes, they are identical, except EVERYTHING besides a couple of internal parts (maybe) are different.

I work at a ford body shop, i can see how some snap on, mac tools etc. tools are goof to have. at the same time icon and the lifetime backed warranty is a great option and definitely for a new upcoming technician. i would rather spend less and have a good quality with lifetime over expensive and high apr tool truck pricing. icon is a good brand overall for this field.

HarborFreight has changed. I use to consider them one time use only . But for true pros I would stick name brands .But honestly it seems everything is cheaper these days. I think for the diy guy or anyone not worshiping tools some of these if not most are fine .

CP opened the doors to that HF and the winds whispered

Woke up from an after work nap to a new CP video, WOOOO!

Whenever i need to fix something in my house i run to harbor freight, their tools have always worked fine for me and at a much cheaper price than lowes or home depot but to each their own

EP Auto has a black case with a full 3/8 set from 8mm to 19mm deep and shallow as well as some SAE and a ratchet and extensions and wobble socket made in Taiwan and I have to tell you its great car kit very small size case with no wasted space, really awesome set. I was able to fit a gear wrench ratchet with a little modification to the case

Harbor freight is like 1/5 the cost of snap on. No comparison. Big surprise there. I buy all my tools from harbor freight and haven’t broken a single one yet and have been able to complete every single task while keeping a lot more of my hard earned cash and if one ever does break I can return it for a new one free of charge with no hassle.

I agree, the Icon back-drag - especially on the 1/4’s - is pretty bad; however, I’ve found that after using these for a few hundred rotations in either direction that they become much smoother.

I remember when I first started working on cars as a teenager I only bought 1/2 stuff because I thought it was the best by default. Now I never use it unless I have to lol. I use 3/8 and 1/4 stuff for almost everything
