I got the Hercules 12" sliding miter saw on sale around Christmas and I really like it. Nuts-on accurate right out of the box, and has worked flawlessly.
I also have a BUNCH of the F-clamps from HF. They are super cheap and work like they're supposed to. Never had a problem with one of them.
Fortress 2 gal compressor. Extremely quiet and better built that I expected.
My least favorite was a small rotary tool (like a small Dremel). I bought it several years ago when I was broke. I needed it for a project. It worked for about 5 minutes and just quit. No smoke, no noise...just stopped spinning. I think I paid about 5 bucks for it. Didn't even bother trying to return it.
Honorable mention for favorite is my 13 inch - 16 speed Central Machinery drill press that I bought probably 20 or more years ago.
Was that the little black Drill Master with a bunch of accessories?
I was so pissed when I bought one of the drill presses during a parking lot sale (orange tag) got it home and it was a return that had been trashed. Sucked.
