Northern Tool + Equipment

They do not let you in the store with your purse I was met at the door apon walking in and told that they don’t allow bags in the store for theft purposes granted this was a small over the shoulder purse not an oversized tote not to mention there was nothing posted on there door saying no purse or bags allowed in the store. I felt like I was accused of stealing before I even walked through the store and I have never stolen in my life.

Great store conveniently located next to I-4. Easy access at the front and plenty of space in the store. Was able to get an item on sale. Sales associate and cashier were very helpful and pleasant. Blue def for the Diesel ⛽ folks . Ford's garage (burger 🍔 place) and Miller's ale house right outside in the parking lot.

We were down bad. The wheel released off the trailer on the highway and bounced freely like a chef boyardi can. By the grace of Jesus, we were only 4 minutes away from NTE. They had EXACTLY the wheel and EXACTLY the hub and drum we needed. Without Jake we would have been screwed. Just damn screwed.

The store itself was impressive and well-maintained, meeting all expectations. However, when searching for Milwaukee tools, we found that Home Depot offered more competitive pricing.

Went to Northern tool on the 21st of May. The sales pamphlet said it was a grand opening event with free gifts for the first 100 people. They were going to have free food at 11:00. Just didn't have the time to stay. Northern Tool is one of or the best tool store. Best quality by far. Anything that isn't in the store you can have shipped to the store for free out of the catalog. The store in Lakeland Florida has great hours opening at 7am great for working people. Great selection of Milwaukee and Stihl products.

Purchased a pressure washer on 10/1/25. Tried using it on 10/2/25 and gas leaked from the carburetor. Had to use another one we owned to finish a job. Had an employee tank it back to the store and was told since we put oil in the machine that they would not take it back or fix it. How would we know it leaked until we put oil and gas in it to start it. Guess we will use Harbor Freight from now on.

I purchased an Ultra-Tow aluminum 40in x 48in flat bed trailer and began my modifications. I added 8 bolt-on Stake Pockets, 1x4 wood boards as flooring, side rails with 2 sets of corner lift-off brackets , a lift-off rear gate with 2 sets of security latches. As of the photos, I have yet to Stain/Seal the wood and install the required lighting. I live in a large upscale golf cart friendly community and this fits the bill perfectly. Easy to tow with my Club Cart Precedent and when I need to hit the public roads, I just hook it up to my SUV. I’m very pleased with the cart and how easy it was to modify and also very please with the folk at the new Lakeland FL Northern Tools for the superior customer service. Updated with additional photos now that I’ve stained the trailer to match the Golf Cart.

Clean and organized store. Quite a bit of variety. Prices are very good on some items, not great on some items. Very helpful employees.

I bought a generator 18 months ago, it came with a 2-year warranty. The battery died, they said is was excluded from the warranty... so I purchased a new one. The generator quit running so I brought it in for repairs, they charged me a $55 fee to diagnose under warranty (not stated in the warranty anywhere). They called to say that something had gotten through the fuel filter and clogged the carburetor, so we had a discussion about gas. I always use ethanol free gas in my equipment, and add Amzoil fuel stabilizer. They called a few days later saying it was ready so I went to retrieve it. They handed me a bill for $283.24 to fix a generator under warranty saying it was a gas problem. Never did they tell me there was a charge, they provided no estimate for the repair, and they didn't obtain approval to make the repair. Upon return home, I discovered that it ran almost as poorly as it did when I brought it in! https://www.youtube.com/shorts/WHRbqwCSwpc BUYER BEWARE!!!
