In general, which of the following brands of power tools do you think are

BOSCH
DeWALT
MAKITA
MILWAUKEE
RIDGID

In general, I like all of these pretty much the same except for Ridgid. I tend
to pick and choose carefully with them. All of the others you listed (but I
deleted) I wouldn't want.

Recently I bought A little 110 volt jack hammer at Harbor Freight for
$400 (The Bosch was $1400.) because I know I will use it only a few
times a year.

And to my surprise it works pretty well.

To my surprise as well. I bought a heat gun from them and it only lasted
halfway through the second use. Total crap.
