The 10 Worst Tools Ever Tested. Let’s Find Out!

When it comes to figuring out which tools to fill a toolbox with, it can be a daunting challenge. After all, there are a variety of different brands at a variety of different price points. If someone doesn’t have unlimited money to throw at top-of-the-line tools, perhaps they will be shopping for bargains where maybe some lesser respected brands might come through with a high-quality product.

Fortunately, this thought process isn’t entirely guesswork these days as channels all over YouTube put tools and other objects through a variety of different tests to figure out which ones are worth spending our money on. At the end of the day, sure, that imported tool might be a lot cheaper but whether or not it’s worth throwing money at is another conversation entirely.

Embracing this mindset, YouTube channels such as Project Farm have a challenging task ahead, consistently discovering valuable insights. Along the way, lesser-known brands establish that their reputations are justified, while some high-end brands disappoint by not living up to the hype.

This time, we check in with Project Farm as they have a different sort of video from them. Instead of comparing a variety of tools from the same category, our host takes the liberty of lining up 10 of the worst items that he has ever tested. With the wide variety of tools that we’ve seen on this channel over the years, you know that these are some really bad values to make the top 10.

Some of these items come with no surprise like batteries from unknown producers but others like basic hand tools also failed the test as well in certain situations. Lastly, we find a category of tools where maybe some companies tried to push the envelope on what was possible to create something entirely new, only to have it massively backfire.
