Default Sears Craftsman Tools

Just found out that my local sears is closing.
But lowes now has craftsman tools.
Unfortunately The lowes stuff is fake.....not made in USA.
Be care full when returning for waranty...it may not be lifetime.
Snap on tools wont come to my house anymore.
Who is left....proto perhaps.
Where do you guys get your tools.

Cobalt from lowes. I dont know about warentee. I just know i use them constantly and never needed to replace any in the 10 years I had them.

Harbor freight has good tools. But you got to know what a good tool is. Half what they got is junk and half is good stuff. Just got to pick and choose.

Since Sears sold Craftman brand years ago it hasn't been made in the USA for quite a while. It also at ACE hardware. Black and Deck I believe own it now.

Our local ACE sells Craftsman. I had some sockets and screwdrivers replaced there, but I don't buy Craftsman anymore. Quality isn't what it use to be. Husky from HD and Kobolt from Lowes are both pretty good and have lifetime guarantees.
