They have screwed me around a few times anyways and I always proceed with caution when using Northern Tool, so it's not like they were my first choice to begin with. My last experience was actually a good one...and I was shocked! My parts washer showed up in one piece looking like the one in the photo, and it wasn't even missing hardware.

    I LOVE summit and have never had a problem that couldn't be handled in a professional manor when dealing with them. TP tools, Jegs, Goodson, and Speedway are a few others that I like to use as well.

    I treat Northern like I treat Harbor Freight for the most part. Summit is awesome, when I lived in GA and was doing a lot of racing it was like a trip to the promised land when we went into the store. I always left with a case of the "I wants!"

    Yup, for their own brand stuff they are about the same, some better some worse. But since this is a Stronghand Tools product, all any place does is slap a shipping label on it or even have it drop shipped right from Stronghand. Even a monkey can manage that.
    Long arc, short arc, heliarc and in-the-dark!

    I treat Harbor Freight much better than Northern at this point. I still use them sparingly, but they have proven to be a valuable resource when I don't have time to order something online and have it shipped. I don't expect much from them and with that attitude, they never let me down.

    You're right, a monkey could manage that, but the real question is...Can UPS???
