Question: I have just bought a 24 volt cordless drill for 83 usd and it seems to work great.

But I'd like to know why a drill with the same features in another brands like Milwaukee or Dewalt are far more expensive.

Answer: Chinese power tools are okay for most homeowners. They aren't for the heavy users like Construction professionals. Chinese power tools are more geared toward the occasional use by homeowners.

It's been my experience buying cheap Chinese power tools from places such as Harbor Freight that these tools are not durable for heavy or extended uses.

It's said that Chinese power tools use less quality materials than the big name brand tools like Bosch, Dewalt or Milwaukee.

I have several of these tools. Most are specialty tools that I only use every once in a while and couldn't see spending the big bucks on name brand power tools.

If you plan on using these tools on an everyday basis, it will pay to buy the better made and higher quality name brand power tools designed and manufactured to be used everyday.

Question: I think personally the DEWALT, are the only company owned by an American and the quality is second to none but I want to hear all views Milwaukee has really been bought out by TTI that have rigid and Ryobi and has moved operations overseas in Asia. Oh, and just a word of advice, when considered a guarantee of long life as the craftsman or rigid, it means the course of life of the gear, which on avg is a term of 2 years

Answer: Well, I like Dewalt prodcuts also. But are they the best? Not in my opinion. I use power tools day in, day out and if it's a power tool that I'll be using on a regular basis, then I'll pay my money for a Makita or Bosh. They just plain last longer.

On the other hand, if it's a tool I use every once in a while, I'll go with a Dewalt or some other name brand.
