    IIRC, that might be because their quality & reputation took a dip for a while. They were, after all, a Sears brand, and Sears got run into the ground by some blood-sucking leadership.

    That said, they used to have a great reputation, and were sold to Black & Decker in 2017, who seem to be handling the line up much, much better.

      B&D makes tools for people who hang pictures… I’ve never seen a b&d tool on a job site or even handle the bare minimum for anything more than little house projects. DeWalt is like the lowest grade stuff that most guys use in construction, but even those are starting to have QC issues and durability drops.
