I'm sure there other things I didn't list that are fine from Harbor Freight, but if its failure can hurt you, don't try to save a few bucks on it at HF
You really have to go case by case and on reviews. I ended up buying my toolchests from HF because I just couldn't come up with a better alternative. They are WAY better built than any of the competition at that price point. Decently welded, thicker sheet metal, better casters, nice drawers, etc.

One thing that I have generally observed is that it seems that anything cast at HF seems to be a lot more likely to fail.
