Seems like a decent deal...why the down vote. Anyone have experience with these?
Nothing wrong with them. I've used them for many years... until the price creeper into the stratosphere. At $5.99, they're back to pre-pandemic prices. Just don't get crazy with them. They're 3 mil. I usually pull 2 pair out of the box when working on a car project (like yanking a transmission or something) because I usually nick a finger or two out of them in the course of the job. I'm currently burning down a couple of crazy overpriced boxes I bought with ODOM Rewards (so... free*), but will swing by HF and grab a box of these at the $5.99 price.

As for the mystery TDs... it's SD, so...

It says these are 5 mil, which is still a little thin for me, but the price is right.

It's back to the pre-pandemic sale prices. Nothing wrong with the gloves but 5mm is on the thin side for repairs or plumbing work as it'll rip easily and often without you realizing it. 7mm or 9mm is recommended with 9mm especially for nasty toilet jobs (speaking from having rental properties). HF is the best place to buy disposable nitrile gloves and I've been using them for over 10 years. Quality has gone down slightly in recent years fit and thickness wise but still my go to gloves.
Maybe if someone can suggest another deal worth getting... doesn't harbor freight have deals every week?

Not so much anymore. HF has the same inflationary issues as everyone else, including imposed tariffs. I think these are decent gloves for the price for one time usage. I typically go through two pair for an oil change and the thicker 9 mil I have left are now $30/100 when not on sale. I could double and triple these 5 mil and still be cheaper.
What you might consider is if you prefer gloves that have a texture or not. When oily or greasy, the textured ones do help with holding onto tools and small items. I just grab a new pair. Never concerned before, used motor and gear oil now really plays havoc with my body beginning with throat glands.
This is a great deal. Went to the store but didn't see any of the specific size on shelf. Asked clerk and she showed stock of 30 so she went to back and grabbed them.
