The yellow handled framing hammer has been decent for the money.

Autodark welding helmet has been awesome. It has allowed me to get better at stick welding. Caught it on sale, bought it and the warranty for less than the normal price of just the hood. Ended up breaking the helmet (my fault, dropped it and then piece of 2" tubing on top of it. They replaced it.

Orange pneumatic grease gun has worked well for me.

I have a 1/2" drive rachet that is composite from them. It was cheap, but it has amazed me. It works better than one of the newer craftsman, and for being "plastic" it is strong. I've had a cheater pipe on it, and it has held. Actually, I feel better about some of their basic hand tools than I used to. Now they are standing behind them, and they seem to work decent for the money. I think it is just a matter of closely looking them.
