    Used Craftsman for the longest time until Sears sold/spun off the brand, then stopped purchasing altogether. I moved into a new home and when I needed a replacement, my new neighbor turned me onto Milwaukee and I never looked back. Replacing years old Craftsman tools with Milwaukee as needed.

      Craftsman still supports the lifetime warranty so if you have any tools that fall under that they will replace them.

      Source: Had two ratchets replaced by them that were 50 or so years old. This was after they were bought out.

          Yes, but it’s better than no tool. Honestly, neither of those ratchets have broken yet and I’ve literally hammered on them so I don’t have any complaints so far.
