What happened to craftsman is GD shame.
I agree with this. The old Craftsman tools were top notch and with the lifetime warranty you could not go wrong. This hedge fund that has run Sears into the dirt sold out the Craftsman name and their reputation. It’s really a shame that so many people still think of Craftsman as the great tools they were. It’s all junk now.
For budget tools I like the Taiwan made stuff. For the average homeowner they will work fine. The best way to get tools now is to scour the garage sales or estate sales. You will get older USA made tools for a huge discount.
Stay away from Sears. They used to be a favorite of mine way back but the stores have been on the morphine drip for years now as the hedge fund owners bleed every nickel they can out if them. It’s a true disgrace.
