lifetime warrenty?

[Frankn]

Well, if all the rumors are correct, you can kiss your lifetime hand tool warranty on Craftman tools goodby. They might follow Twinky next year. Frank

Always get a kick out of such warranties,my life or business,s life? Do like craftsman though. Another titan stumbles.

 

[Frankn]

Revelent, actually, I think it's the tools life. When it breaks, it's over. lol Frank

S&k wrapping it up i thought. Or is that why you mention it? Did wear out a craftsman half inch ratchet sears replaced , the guy tossed mine in a pretty good sized container with others exchanged.

 

[spartacus53]

S&K make all the tools for Sears, and Sears uses the name Craftsman

Buy any Sears electronics, you are buying Panasonic

Their tires are my by Michelin

Their shirts are made by Arrow.

Should I continue

Not to Mention that Craftsman Tools ARE NOT made in USA Anymore

Not buying Chinese Craftsman tools - Tools Discussion Topics - Craftsman Community

At my age, a lifetime warranty means nothing. I'd be much happier with a 2-year warranty at a cheaper price.

I agree with Packerbacker . When I'm gone my tools will be sold for pennies on the dollar at an estate auction because I've not been able to instill a love of fine tools in any of my progeny . Not faulting them . They just didn't get the bug .

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I have been in the building industry my whole life and have always bought top of the line. Still have power tools I bought in the 80's and they still work like new (used all the time also).
My boys are learning though. Now that they are buying their own, they realize that the cheap stuff does'nt last like dad's stuff does.

My oldest bought a asian Craftsman set last summer. The castings are terrible and the ratchets have parting lines that will give you blisters after a short time wrenching. No more new craftsman for me.

I never had a problem . I took a few dug wrenches to sears, they chuck them in a big box & wrap up a new one for me

Are you talking electrical maybe ? or new confused employee ?

Ridgid has a lifetime on their battery's (Power tools) If you follow the directions.

 

[Frankn]

If you read the fine print, you void the warranty by turning it on. lol Frank

Yea Never had a problem with my local Sears

 

[pat-tekker-cat]

Yep, I too am greatful for Sears!
I go through their life-time warrenty pole-cutters, pretty dang quick!
They are no match for the Florida palm fronds!

Home Depot is losing out with them life-time warrenty pruners, too!
