Just for starters.

Harbor Freight have HFT brand plugs for 3 bucks.

How is HFT as a company?

It is not so much how HFT (H-arbor F-reigh-T) might be, it is the brute fact that Harbor Freight is mostly an outlet for Chinese Junque, and _ANYTHING_ from that source is suspect. I find Harbor Freight a very dangerous organization, as many of the tools they sell go from "new" to dangerous almost in a flash, with special attention to moving parts and anything gasoline driven or electrical. A neighbor purchased a 4,000 watt generator from them last spring for his truck - he is a high-end handyman. He reported that it blew up in less than 20 hours. HF took it back, but he then spent the money and purchased a small Generac unit. No more troubles.
