I've been shopping at Harbor Freight for years and saved hundreds of dollars in the process. They have great prices on tools for your car, home, and yard. I recently bought some sockets that would have cost almost double at some other retailers. I didn't need them in the end, and was able to return them easily. From returns, to help navigating the atore, to advice about tools, the customer service has been great. AND, I didn't have to walk a football field of aisles to hunt someone down. I always think of Harbor Freight first when I'm shopping for hardware. It's a great place for your DIY needs. read more

Customer service was terrible. I came in for some basic tools since I moved into the area. I grabbed a few items and picked up the slip for a 3-ton jack since I couldn't fit it in the tiny carts they have. The woman said they did not have it in stock when I clearly saw one unopened on the floor. So, I finished the checkout with the items I had brought up because there was a line forming behind me, and I was trying to be considerate. Meanwhile, another customer kept bumping his cart into my back. After I purchased the items, my girlfriend and I decided to load them into the trunk and then return to purchase the heavy 3-ton jack. When we picked it up and threw it in the cart, we proceeded to the checkout. It was a young male who had zero customer service skills and was very rude, seeming to have some sort of problem with me. Throughout the checkout process, he responded to every question with attitude. I'm never returning to this Harbor Freight! If the company or any type of leadership at that store is reading this, please train your employees to at least be acceptable people in customer-facing roles. read more

Beware,, Its all about sucking you into the store,, all the promotions, coupons, sales, are all just to get you into the store,, nevermind that fact that the actual item is on sale is hard to find or out of stock , but a very similar item with only one or two digit off the sku # is prominently displayed but not on sale,,Then there is the coupons,, on a single page of coupons, in the fine print there will be several different expiration dates,, and they will give NO GRACE period on an expired coupon, not even an hour or day.. after todays experience at the Howe avenue store,, I will not be going back to that store,,, Ever.. the sales clerk did not even ask if I had a number on file at HF,,, very disappointing shopping experience, to say the least.. read more

Loved this store. Its plucky AF! Why? Because ya gotta love a place that decided to put one of their larger and nearly flagship stores smack in the center of Howe 'Bout Anarchy. Its been a minute since I last spent time in the Arden Fair area and hooooweee things they have a changed! Its like Captain Savahoe's Parade Grounds, Hot Mess Hall and Carrier Squad all wrapped into one Intersection of Mendacity. And now....they got a Harbor Freight. In a hood. With no Shotcallers. Love em or hate em...the SC's bring a certain order to places that are lacking...things like Starbucks and Panera Bread. Those two impose their own social order. But here...we got Harbor Fright walking into the hood and just choppin it up like he already been in the pod. Brave choice Harbor Freight. Well played and 5 40 oz Stars Up for coming into that mix...Bless Them and Thy Tools. So they had my 80v bad mamma jamma ATLAS battery pack that no other store did. This needed to power the ATLAS weed DECAPITATOR that just kills it with the weeds. My gtass and trees now look at the new NON-GAS 'Eater and say 'Sup Bro...let's Run It MF!' The folks working the place are incredibly helpful and nice. They got robbed while I was there and basically rolled with it. Impressive. Like it wasn't no thing. Great selection! (Obviously; above) Now don't let the parking lot scare ya off..the daytime hookers are harmless when kept at a car length distance. The rest is all just a floorshow into to one of the nicest - and thickest skin - HF's out there. It was well worth my 90 min drive to visit. Afterwards, escape is just two turns away from the parking lot to the beauty that is Bus80 East. Back to the Stepfordesq like order of Panera and Starbucks societal norm. So again...I loved this place. They as real as real gonna get. And my new 80v battery pack just knocks the meat out my taco. Go spend some real money here. You can catch Panera in Roseville on the way back read more

Harbor Freight Tools - THE Lambo of Lithium! - Hardware Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

I sent my employee to purchase a pump, but he got the wrong one so I sent him back to return it. We never opened it or even touched it just sent it straight back. My employee states when he got there the employee opened the box the "inspect" it only to tell him we don't return pumps. For 1 then why did you open it and inspect it? 2 my receipt says you do return them I just have to pay a restocking fee which I'm fine with. I asked for a manager and he claims his name is Jesus, I asked him about the return he said you need to submit a return through the website we don't return pumps. I explained to him that my receipt says I am able to return it. I just have to pay a restocking fee if the item has been opened then I have to return it via the website. Again, we never opened it. The employee opened it to inspect it. He's now claiming the seals were Torn and it has been opened. Everything is on camera. We never opened it. There are no seals on this box. Then I asked for the managers name and he said Jesus but wouldn't give me a last name. He knew I was going to put in a complaint. he was incredibly rude. It's very unfortunate that Harbor freight has somebody like this managing their store. A professional manager would apologize about the situation and explained that they don't restock them. The only way to return them is via website instead he was incredibly rude and hung up on me, I spend thousands of dollars at Harbor freight as I have a commercial account, but I will not be sending my employees there anymore! Now I see why there aren't many successful stores! read more

Harbor Freight Tools - Nowhere on my receipt does it say that I cannot return a pump clearly underneath the pump it just says subject to restocking fee. - Hardware Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

I wanted to pop in an updated review because of some products I like here. The staff here tend to be helpful and nice. Just know the one thing they can't do is give you the current coupon if you forgot it at home. They'll give you the upcoming coupons though. There's at least one high quality product (my original review says low to mid-quality products) here. The viking jump start pack with flashlight. It's compact and very handy! It'll hold a charge for a long time and do multiple jump starts before a charge. Super helpful to have if your battery is aging or as a contingency plan if you might be traveling in a more remote area. Works on cars, trucks, small RVs! Check their site for reviews. Two recent cheap products bought here I love - super glue and a rubber wheel chock. Both on coupons will be 3 for $1 and $4.99. Great value. How often have you bought expensive crazy glue and it dries up after just one use? Save some bucks! read more

Dave the store manager was very unprofessional. I have been shopping here for a few years and this was the first time I've seen bad customer service. Dave was very rude when I was asking about the current coupons and overall seemed very uninterested in helping me out. read more

Harbor Freight is the best choice for tools if I'm looking for something inexpensive. This location is one of their best and cleanest location. This store is bigger and Better than most of the other Harbor Freight Tools. They have four cashiers check out lines. They only have to open one today. The store is not very busy. The workers are very helpful and initiative to help us get the items we tried to find in the store. The cashier is also very nice! read more

I love comming to this location. Its the great harbor freight prices, but what stands out about this location is that staff seem more knowledgeable about the needs of the customers. This store is a little it of my way but i will happily make the drive here if i have any questions. read more

Raiders just win!!!! Ok here I am again. Never finished this but then again do we ever finish. I mean we are always doing something and the when we think it's finished nope we have more to do or we need to do it again. Reminds me of taking the dog for a walk and seeing a really cool car drive by that's a color you like and wondering where you put that navy blue sweater you liked only to remember it's not yours but a friends and you have a red one. Or going to the store for 3 things and walking out wit a bag and you had to buy the bag too! It seems silly that we do things then wonder why we do things! But doing things is what we do. read more

Harbor Freight Tools - Tools - Hardware Stores Near Me - Sacramento, California

These guys have really stepped up their game! I know a lot of people think HF tools a junk, but this is the 21st century and for thirty years they've been accumulating tool brands and improving the quality of their tools. Wrenches for example. I bought a set of end wrenches recently and the finish on them is every bit as nice as Snap-on. Smooth, polished chrome without a single blemish, I haven't tested them to the breaking point, but so far, they're doing the job. They have grinders for as little as $9.99 and they perform as one might expect. You can get a welder there for under $100. Some stuff isn't the greatest, but all in all, it's mostly pretty good value for the money. They're enabling Americans to innovate and build stuff! When I can save $50 and get the job done, I'm happy! read more

Customer service is key but I guess when you can't find people to work you take what you can get. I was looking to purchase six tool chests and one of the cashiers must've had Tourette's because she's screaming at people to form at one line then proceeded to talk shit about customers in the store to the customer she was helping. I'll continue to shop at Harbor freight just not this location for a while knowing that she will either quit or be fired. Looks like Home Depot has my business today. read more

No customer service whatsoever. Ask associate for help and was basically shrugged off. I will never visit this location again.

Best Harbor Freight I've ever been too. My husband and I were in the store and there was a situation with a difficult customer. The store manager did a phenominal job diffusing and rectifying the situation. This is now my preferred Harbor Freight to shop at. read more

Awesome to have this new addition to this side of town! I love this place. They have everything you need tool wise for your projects. Lots of other nice things for your garden and home as well. They have great coupons and ad prices and desks every week. This store is nice and big and clean and things are easy to find and if you need something there are plenty of employees to help you find what you are looking for. Glad to welcome you to the neighborhood. read more

Very very nice store. This store is HUGE! Love it but the location not so much. I wish the Elk Grove store was like this one. read more

I love this place I seem to be able to find most tools I need and almost always have a coupon from them to get me something for free or to get 20% off my items and they send you coupons when you sign up! I also finally broke down and bought the welder I've been eyes from there for a while and I'm loving it it's been great so far! read more

Stephanie and Jammie's customer service skills is on point! I've been to many (MANY) Harbor Freights from San Jose up to Sacramento and these two make a great team. I had to do a quick emergency repair on my car's sound system and needed some hex keys. Jammie could of just been lazy and tell me which aisle they're in, but instead he walked me there with a smile and happy demeanor! Stephanie was my cashier today and she is super friendly! read more

You know this location isn't that well known so it's great because you're not on elbow to elbow traffic. If you know HF it's cheap it's quick and it's friendly. Not to mention the added plus is ELECTRONIC RECEIPTS SENT TO YOUR EMAIL!!!! Yes no need to show your receipts because they have it on file. 20% discount coupons. read more

I love coming here to get the gloves I need, and at such a good price with my coupon. glad I don't have to travel all the way to Costco for my gloves. I love being able to get 4 boxes at once at $5.99 per box for a box of 100. the employees are always so friendly and the store is neat and clean. read more

I visited this location last week, I am impressed and happy to find a store that is more customer friendly than HomeDepot. When shopping for hardware or tools, I just want to be in a calm environment where I can feel comfortable to brainstorm and work through problems, not followed by security guards or security cameras chiming and flashing as I walk up to a shelf. I'm done with the Home Depot/Walmart feel of shopping after my first visit here. I was able to find multiple tools and encountered friendly and attentive staff. Thanks for a great experience, I look forward to future endeavors together. read more

You guys, going to Harbor Freight for affordable, quality hardware is a no-brainer. I can't say enough about how they've made life easier. So many reasons. Open late (at least 8pm). Huge selection of quality tools, including automotive stuff. Bright, clean store. Restrooms. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. No attitude or job hater. Coupons out the Ying Yang (in mailers, in store, and email if you sign up). INCREDIBLE return policy. Never have I seen one this generous! You can return something within 90 days as long as you have the receipt, and it doesn't have to be in its original packaging!!! I'm going to repeat this Yelp adoration with all HF's I've been to. Only thing I don't like is that there's no stores in San Francisco or the Peninsula! But there's lack of a lot of practical stores on Peninsula which is another story. If you're in Sacramento, East Bay, or San Jose though, you're good to go! There's one in San Rafael too. read more

This place has gotten alot better since it seems as if they have gotten rid of the druggies that worked there and hired a cute girl to work the register. She is nice and helpful and always an added benefit she is nice to look at. read more

Bought a set of string lights today and noticed after getting home they charged me for the replacement plan without asking me. Also gave me a discount on the lights without me knowing but still ended up paying more in the end. I'm guessing they get a kick back for selling people the replacement plans and thought I wouldn't notice because of the discount also given. Beware of shady employees at this location. read more

Lots of cool stuff, and you don't have to spend a fortune. But it looked like the shelves needed to be stocked, there was a lot of empty spaces. If you like tools, it's easy to spend some time exploring. BEST customer service I have experienced in a long time. OUR CASHIER, LETTY, WAS PERFECTION! The cheerfulness and absolute enjoyment for helping the customers was something you just don't see anymore. 4 stars for Harbor Freight an 5+ for LETTY! :) read more

My favorite Harbor Freight. ALWAYS Clean. Well stocked. Friendly, helpful, & knowledgeable staff. If they don't know the answer to a question, they go find the answer. Not run and hide. Yes, I'm talking about Harbor Freight on Howe avenue. I have been going there at least once a month for the past two years and the experience is always the same. Five Stars. read more

Good place to buy all right parts for a really reasonable price. I got a floor jack that's exactly the same as the snap on one that cost $600 at Harbor Freight I got it for 200 and the next week got a coupon and I could have gotten it for 170 read more

We went into Harbor Freight on Howe Ave today. There is a sign on the door requesting all people wear masks yet the person working in the front as a cashier did not have a mask on her face but had the mask hanging around her neck. Her badge said her name was Jeanne and listed her as a supervisor!! In this time of COVID numbers increasing, to have the store supervisor disregard the mandate was upsetting. We will not shop at this location again. read more

I like this place. Good prices and the regular freebies. Service good and tons of parking. A good variety of inventory. Staff helpful. The only disappointing thing is that it would be good to have things like nails, screws, small hooks and other small hardware one needs regularly. But overall certainly glad the store exists and would recommend. read more

The place is clean and nice but no one is friendly enough to help. They don't acknowledged you unless you're trying to check out. I mean, you could have easily walked out with anything from this store with the lack of customer service. First I have called in to ask if they have a portable jump start kit but the male that answered the phone kept saying, I can't hear you. And proceeds to say "I'm sorry we have a company line that will be coming up shortly" and hangs up. I called again and he didn't pick up anymore. Wtf. And then this happens at the store. I guess it could of just been and bad day but I'm very disappointed with my overall experience. read more

The manager Huff was great I had purchased a trailer and it was missing a piece, I had already built most of the trailer, and did not want a swap and have to rebuild it again.

This place just took over the Staples on Howe, and they're a great alternative to Home Depot if you're looking for tools (and don't want to die of old age waiting for someone who actually works there). Good service, a great selection, and decent prices. Plus frequent sales where I can stock up on things like storage bins, replace the rubber hammer I lost. read more
