Since my local Sears is over 25 miles away and there is a Lowes bought a stone throw from were I work I have been slowly replacing lost or unwarrentied items like my recent purchase a 1/2" drive ratchet at $32.00, my Old one was a Sears brand(not lifetime waranty) my mother bought in a set (1/2" sockets & wratchet)for x-mas when I was 16 I'm now 41!...it finally died when my son was taking off the front bumper on his jeep wrangler and had a 2' pipe on it.
Well anyway I have been buying and using the Kobalt tools & have no problems replacing a broken socket or driver and the fit and quality is to me at least as good and sometimes better than craftsman.
SOOO does anyone else have an opinion ???..
Thanks
