Mostly Craftsman here. It all works fine for the truck, bike, and around the house. If it breaks, they replace it no questions asked. Rather have my $6K in Craftsman and a bunch of other stuff, than $25K or more in a higher level brand, which can also break.

Well; the Craftsman wrenches I ordered from Sears came in and they are definitely made in China. Says so right on the back side of the wrenches. They weren't even the racheting style I thought they were.

Thats funny I just picked up my 348 peice set yeaterday and they say either Made in the USA of Forged in the USA, all of them ratchets, sockets, wrenches.
The new ratchet seems smother than my 30 year old one.

I like Craftsman, I have other tools too. Sometimes tools break thats just the way it is. At least you only pay for Craftsman once.
On another note.. I was just at Sears yesterday buying a socket adapter--Craftsman and they signed me up for the Craftsman club. I have never heard of it before but basically you get huge discounts on tools, and they track how much you spend on tools and send you coupons for free tools. They only catch...you have to give them your membership number when you buy Craftsman tools! Great deal!

They have not sent me anything in a long time!
I think they advertise member discounts in the ads that are sent in the mail.

They told me that the coupons would be sent to my e-mail. Also, they have a copy of the discount flyer at the desk in the tool section, and online. Sounds like a great deal to me!

Had to check, looks liek some power tools are made overseas but most hand tools are made in the USA, here is a cut paste from wiki
[edit] Legal battles
Craftsman tools came under fire in 2004 in a lawsuit accusing Sears, Roebuck and Co. of false advertising and consumer fraud for questionable use of the "Made in USA" slogan.[4]
While most Craftsman hand tools are manufactured in the U.S., many power tools and accessories are manufactured overseas, sometimes with the final assembly taking place in the U.S.
