Isnt that kind of like saying Ridgid is just Ryobi with a orange case?



If you accept his statement about B&D and DeWalt tools, the corollary is
that Milwaukee is just a Ryobi.

I just bought a $120 5" metalworking (utility) vise from Milwaukee. The
jaws won't clamp down in parallel, the pipe jaws are 1/4" out of alignment,
and the paint job is absolutely atrocious. Knowing I could return it, I
actually laughed out loud at the quality.

From my (albeit limited) experience, Milwaukee is just a red Ryobi.
