We used HART Tools for ONE YEAR. How did they hold up?

Welcome to episode 10 of #MakerBreak Season 2!

Today we take a look back at a full year with HART tools, tell you how they have held up, and what we thought of them!

Special thanks to @HARTTools for sponsoring this episode, and reminding us we can build anything we can imagine, if we #DoItWithHART

This is such a great recap! We really appreciate all the feedback on our products, including the jigsaw! 😉

I had some tools stolen from me at work and thought hey I'll just buy cheap tools and started with just the impact and drill, now I own almost everything battery operated from Hart, they have held up for more then a year in a brutal industrial atmosphere and hands down they are fantastic. Not only have they held up but they have been dependable the battery life really isn't bad on the big guys. I do industrial maintenance so I abuse mine every day. Your video is awesome guys.

Lol I own a flooring company and when I started my company I was on a tight budget so I started buying hart tools from Walmart and a lot of my friends in the trade used to laugh at me but I honestly love them I haven’t had any issues I even use their pack out stack system, shout out to Hart ✌🏾 you guys have made me a lot of money

little disclosure, i am a team red person doing facilities maintenance. when Hart first came out i was super skeptical because it was a walmart tool brand and hyper tough gave walmart tools a bad name (just from word of mouth not personal experience) and i would not even consider even purchasing any tools from walmart. UNTIL this video. the integrity that these two bring are unquestionable and with the words they say about this line of products, it seriously has made me reconsider because they gave it a quality test run of a year of hard use. their feedback along with the customer service side that they informed us on gives me a good impression and also clarity into the quality of the tools and the overall business that is HART and their mindset of quality tools at an affordable price that brings to a much larger potential customer base with an easy cost of entry into a new tool platform. with that being said i will not hesitate to give them a try should i ever be in a pinch to try a new to me tool brand and will approach that line of tools with an open mind of in all likelyhood eventually trying a few of these tools out should the situation call for it. well done Hart you've changed my perspective. Bravo

I saw a tape measure in the middle of the road as I was pulling up to a red light. I decided to help keep my city clean and I quickly got out and grabbed it. It is a Hart 30' heavy duty model. I don't know how many times it was ran over but it looks very rough, chewed up all over. I still have it, it works perfectly and even the belt clip works fine.

My son is a diehard Milwaukee tool guy - as a homeowner who is over 60 I wanted a tool I could handle - started w a hedge trimmer - very scared I’d have to return but my confidence grew w every hart addition !
I like I can get a lighter weight yard tool !

I have the same vac, I call it "Hart-2D2". I added a muffler a, a fine dust filter and fine dust collection bag and works great inside the house and the garage.

I love the Hart Tool Line. I am more of an auto enthusiast/ restoration and Hart has been good to me. I bought my line in 2019 and absolutely love it. I use my tools without mercy and Hart has held up better than my other tools such as Ryobi and a few others. I wish Hart would reach out to me to profile that part of their line for a channel that I am going to start. Well done!

[GabrielYeager]

While I know this was a sponsored video by Hart and therefore biased, I still appreciate your overview of the products. I am just starting out on furniture flipping and pallet projects, looking for affordable tools that are universal, lightweight, , and expandable. That said, these seem to fit the bill, and at $198.00 on sale for their 6-piece kit is a steal (even with being brushed). Looking forward to seeing all the new products Hart releases. Thanks for the video!

I’m a tool nut I personally may never get hart but when my mom and sister look up power tools and see tons of options and ask what to get and I know what level they are at and hart is perfect to recommend and it’s easier to get to pick up more tools when there at Walmart instead of taking another trip to a hardware store

[TheZrodgrez]

I just purchased a Hart impact drill from Walmart yesterday. It does the job flawlessly. Wasn't sure about the color scheme but hey, I wasn't sure about my PS5 color scheme at first either but it's something you fall in love with and there's no going back.

[davidperry]

If I were new to power tools or I’m in a bind, I would definitely consider Hart tools. However, I sprung for TTI’s high end offering which the Milwaukee Fuel line of M18 and M12 tools because I want the best performing and most robust tools and I love TTI. I’m glad that TTI currently has a tool brand for everyone’s budget.

Wow. Great video. Thanks, guys. Practical information that we can use!

For black friday this year (2023), a Hart 4 piece tool set including 2 batteries, Drill, impact, reciprocating saw, led light, charger, carrying bag is going on sale for 98 dollars! After seeing your video, I'm going to definitely pick them up. I have a 15+ year old Makita drill and impact set that still works well, its going to be interesting to see how they compare. Currently I have the stainless steel hart shop vac that i use daily for HOURS on end at my detail shop, it is the best shop vac I've ever had. The suction is phenomenal, the features are great, and its been extremely reliable. I've had it for probably a year and a half by now, still works perfectly even after countless bumps. I much prefer it over my original shop vac. I also have the 270 Pc. mechanics set, which has been just as good as my craftsmen set. In fact, the hart set has a much nicer carrying box. I really like hart, i feel like they provide a VERY solid line for the price. They have a lot of upscale features, for bottom of the barrel pricing. And, truth be told, in my experience, reliability has been great. I don't like a tool that breaks a ton.

[brandoncharleswhite]

They're made by the same manufacturer that makes Milwaukee. They're great I've had the brushless drill and impact doing solar installation for over a year with them and they are built tough. The impact has fallen off the roof many times and still works flawlessly.

[geoffstrickler]

Love your honesty about the standard charger and the sander.

[smallfry]

I got an impact and a drill from heart 5 years ago and they are surprisingly holding up through several small builds and I mix plaster and paint nearly regularly with the drill. Had to use the impact with a 1" speed bit cuz the drill just couldn't do it. Overall I'm very shocked they're still kicking to be honest. Left the impact out in the rain, used them both outside in downpours of freezing rain. Color me impressed. I'm still going to upgrade this year to either Milwaukee or DeWalt. Maybe a sprinkling of both and keep using the harts for mixing paint until they kick the bucket. I won't however use anything else from Hart because it being crap and all. Tried a couple lawn toolsas well and they all broke before the end of the season.

[williamthomas]

Hmm. You're both super likable and genuine. Appreciated.

The brushless ½ in. drill and impact with two 2ah batteries will be here tomorrow and two 4 ah batteries and 4 battery charger the day after. I see good testing and reviews for Hart so might as well give 'em a shot... especially considering I got a three year replacement plan for 23 dollars.

Great review and entertainment. Watched it all.

[mat_a.c.d.evloganstuff]

Honestly this was my first choice of tools, i was literally going to go buy this but I stopped at lowes of curiosity and one of there great deals pulled me into the craftsman line and I'm happy with them but at least I know hart can be a second choice if any goes wrong!

[carlosgavino]

First episode I watched of you guys and the way you both work great together now I gotta see what else you guys have done
