I bought a Rdgid 12V at HD. Lifetime service warranty which incudes the
battery.
Plenty of power, nice chuck. Recommended.

Made 100% in China, looks ok...runs fine for a homeowner.

for someone that makes his living with his tools, we would pass.


But what isn't made in China these days? For example, Hitachi is a well
known Japanese manufacturer whose respectable-quality products we
naturally expect, logically enough, to be made in Japan. But not so with
my new Hitachi (model WH 14DMR) impact driver. At the bottom of the specs
label situated on the housing it reads (in finer print than everything
above it), "Made in China".

Point taken, but if you CAN buy something still made here, and its rock
solid, why not?
