r/Tools on Reddit: Harbor Freight Angle Grinder or Spend More?
August 3, 2025 -
I would like to repair my Mustang’s frame rail rot and shock tower rust. The standard procedure is to cut out the bad areas and weld in new patches from repair kits (it’s a rite of passage).
Should I get a cheap corded 4.5” angle grinder from Harbor Freight, spend more on a corded brand, or spend even more on a cordless brand? (I currently have the Milwaukee Fuel impacts and ratchets).

The nice thing about the harbor freight grinders is they are so cheap you can own 3 and not have to swap between cut off wheel, flap sander, and wire wheel. U did the quarter panels on an f150 with all HFT grinders. I also have a cordless that is smoother and 5x the price. Works the same IMHO.

r/harborfreight on Reddit: I'm looking for an angle grinder on a budget - Harbor Freight or name brand? BTW - I'm left-handed
June 22, 2019 -
I need to pick-up an angle grinder. I am on a budget, but if I'm going to get something, I want something that will last a while (sharpening mower blades!) I probably can't get brushless right now. Should I head out to Harbor Freight or drive right past it and go to Lowe's? What exactly should I be looking for?
BTW - I am left-handed. Are there models that the handle on the side can be adjusted?
Thank you.

I have the blue Chicago Electric HF one ($30). It's seen plenty of use for dumb stuff, from grinding out transmission bellhousings (don't ask) to cutting square tube to fix my grill (again, don't ask). I've had it for years, and it's still excellent. I wouldn't buy a cordless one, they never quite seem to have the "oomph" of the corded variety -- and I say that having tried the 20v Dewalt one. The handle can be screwed to the left, right, or top of the head of the grinder, it's pretty simple to operate, and if you burn it out -- you're only out $30. I haven't tried the Hercules ones, but I would guess that they're also pretty damn good. But why spend more? The flappy paddle on the blue Chicago Electric is pretty nice to have as well, though I think an electric brake would be nice. While we're talking grinders though, get yourself some safety gear. Wheels can and will explode, and you really don't want to be in the way of the debris following. At a minimum safety glasses, because you don't want rust in your eye that needs drilled out.

If you're only going to use it a handful of times a year I would say a hf. If you plan on cutting metal or using it more often just get a used name brand.

Yeah, our shop has been through many of them. They cut metal just fine... If you're going to be using it consistently and for long periods of time I would buy a nicer angle grinder. These have short duty cycles and do not feel as balanced / powerful as nicer brands. If you need a grinder for 10 minutes a week this is an excellent option.
