The old craftsman's were great all their new stuff isn't that great sadly. At least for screw drivers and ratchets. The best part about it is if one breaks I walk into the local fleetfarm and they give me a brand new one because of the lifetime warranty. I've been slowly switching to Menards masterforce as they have the same gig, and its better quality imo. The masterforce power equipment is about as good as my dewalt stuff I'd say (decently close at least). We used masterforce drills and impacts daily for steel roofing and they were great. They switched drill designs and we had a couple issues with those specific ones (mainly with how the bit clamping mech works, they would just clamp wierd after lots of use...only happened on a couple), but Id hope they changed or fixed that issue by now. It was with the super long drill version they have, they still worked just not as smoothly. The stubby ones we never had an issue with. Still would recommend their stuff for a good alternative.Dads craftsman set from the 60’s are amazingly slim yet very strong.
I love those little pocket flat-head screwdrivers with a magnet on the top, would be lost without mine.
