I have lots of Harbor Fright air tools and have never had a problem with
them. I got my cutoff tool from Pep Boys. Their air tools work great
also. They have an excellent return policy if you ever do run into a
problem. Just keep your receipts.

(almost)Never stalls, and I've cut up entire cars with mine. Pep Boy's
wheels cut cleaner. Harbor Freight's are lots cheaper. I keep both on
hand and use the H.F.'s for rude cuts and the P.B.'s for more accurate
cutting.
