Personally, I'm all in on Milwaukee's tools. The tools and warranty service have been dependable for years in my experience.

I will say that the auto plant I work at uses primarily Makita tools for their assembly jobs. Those tools are used repeatedly for at least 16 hours a day, 6 days a week and aren't failing and achieving consistent torque.

I am normally a Craftsman tool guy, so I went with Dewalt. Stanley, Black & Decker, and Craftsman along with DeWalt are all one company now and still 100% American owned and Lowe's didn't have the High Torgue Craftsman I wanted at the time and they did in the DeWalt line so, I got the DeWalt figuring it is still the same tool as the Craftsman.

I don't know if it is but it can be hard to tell. If you watch a lot of TorqueTest channel videos sometimes you pick up hints of which tools are made by the same factory. IIRC the Ridgid and Milw. come from the same factory and parts can interchange.
