I just recently swapped a 1/2" ratchet at lowes that ive had for years, (but I didnt tell them that) they swapped it out no problem.
At work we have knipex cutters for cutting hogrings.
Lowes quit selling knipex, so my boss picked us up some craftsman cutters that are great.
Also we had a few expensive heat guns that burned out, he ordered new elements but they burned out as well.
So he grabbed some craftsman heat guns that I thought wouldnt last a week. To our suprise they are still working great weeks later after multiple convertible tops, seats, ect.
Im gonna grab one for home here shortly.
So far impressed.
