Skil and Greenworks now at Walmart

[wavinwayne]

I noticed today that my local Walmart now carries a limited selection of Skil and Greenworks power tools. All outdoor tools at this point. Just a heads up for anybody in either of these tool lines.

I got a GreenWorks electric mower and it’s great.

No problems, just new blades after 5 years.

I think their dropping the Hart line?

Yes, they are.

Is Skil as good as when people called it a "Skilsaw"?

A Chinese company bought the name a decade ago. Caveat emptor.

I have a few that I picked up on clearance from Lowe's and they're not bad. Two circ saws and a router, no complaints.

The Greenworks Pro impact wrenches got a good review from Torque Test Channel, for performance and build quality. The batteries can be charged at 65W via USB-C.

I saw that over the weekend and as you say got good reviews from TTC, they apparently gave them a good workout over a few day. For the price they may be worth owning especially the mini and compact for cordless high torque I still would go with the Hercules ultra torque.
I don't need any but the compact looks like something you could take for road trips and keep in a go tool bag.
