Yeah most people usually get the 1000lb cart cause it lifts higher & of course the higher rated load capacity. It is the better buy IMO. I on the other hand went with the 500lb cart. I'll never need to lift something closer to 1000lbs, if it can even really handle that much. I went with the 500lb cart because of it's weight.
Haha.You can use the 500lb cart to lift the 1000lb high enough to put it in your truck.
Yeah, 88lbs vs 180lbs is a pretty big difference. It kind of has me waffling on my need for it at all. I'd really be happy with an honest 300lb (I don't trust HF weight ratings) cart with a 36" lifting height so it would be able to reach any of my workbench tops.
Haha.
Yeah sometimes I wish I had bought the 1000lb cart for the extra lifting height. A few times I thought about getting it but the price has gone way up since I got the 500lb so I'm too cheap to buy. I have a small truck & the 500lb cart works out for me since my driveway is sloped.
Came in real handy when I got my second 5 drawer cart. The first 2 I got were damaged so the lift cart made it easy for me to load/unload them. Plus I haven't had a need to use it much lately so I'm fine with the 500 cart. I use it more as an extra portable work surface using the locking legs. Space is very limited in my garage. Saved my back assembling the 5 drawer cart by myself too.
Plus I just got this motorcycle/dirt bike hydraulic work lift stand a couple of weeks ago. The small size makes it more easy to use for lifting stuff onto my workbench, etc.
I got it here:
Ask for a raincheck with the coupon price. Gives you another 30 days and you're not locked into a single store.
Is that a done thing? I tried to do that recently with the hydraulic table cart and the local HF manager told me that wasn't possible.
I did it twice at two different stores within the past three months. They have a specific raincheck form that they fill out. I would say try a different manager or different store.
That's a bummer. I did it with the 20% off pliers coupon. I might still try another store just to see.
What, there was a 25% coupon for this past weekend? Usually 25s are one day only that usually happens on holidays. Last one was Memorial Day. Damn I didn't see anything for this past weekend.
They sent me a message saying they miss me. It's good through Thursday so I've been checking stock each morning. I doubt I'll find one close since the manager's of the stores I checks said they only get a truck every two weeks....no rainchecks.
Ah I see. I have yet to get one of those. Well I did get a 15% one a while back but it wasn't enough to get me in the store.
it worked for me, picked up the 12-point 1/2 impact sockets.FYI, the 20% off coupon stacks with “instant savings” items too:
The only possible explanation I've heard is them being sent out to people that have not bought anything from them in a while. Since the first thing the cashier asks for is your phone number it makes sense.
It seems like we are back to the good old days of HF coupons but realistically all of their pricing increased by more than 20% so you’re really paying what the regular price of the item was 2 years ago when you use a coupon. I understand inflation plays a factor in it but I wonder if they intentionally did away with coupons to hike up the prices anyway.
that is what i found out, no tool boxes, chest, etc... as noted on the coupon.
