What We Know About Bauer Tools & If They're Worth Buying
By RON BAKER
As Harbor Freight's mid-tier line, Bauer Tools faces skepticism since the company has a reputation for being a purveyor of cheap goods. Yet, these products still offer advantages.
Positioned between the budget Warrior brand and premium Hercules brand, Bauer targets consumers seeking reliable tools at a bargain and competes with brands like Ryobi and Hart.
Reviews of Bauer tools reveal some issues, like LED failures and chuck problems, but tests show Bauer tools perform decently, especially considering their affordability.
Bauer tackles the battery cost problem by using quality Samsung cells and slow-charging chargers, resulting in a cheap, reliable, and powerful battery platform.
With over 65 tools available, Bauer presents an appealing option for homeowners seeking quality tools at a reasonable price.
