i'm not trying to spend that much on an impact wrench. i was suggested to a dewalt, that seemed better in my price range...opinions?

HF is the shniznit, but the their impact wrenches broke on me a million times. Good thing is you can return it and get another one and it does the job for u.

I had my craftsman electric impact for years of shop abuse, and it took around 3-4 years for it to die. Best 100 electric impact gun I could ask for.
Now I have a small dewalt 3/8ths that is pretty sweet.

yea i'm going to invest in a 3/8s soon as well...i do want a cordless impact though...what i have now will hold me until i'm ready to get another.

before i got the HF impact, i was looking at the craftsman electric cordless impact...wanted it..but HF was more feasible at the time.
