    For Hand tools here. Electric Dewalt......
    No, it's not.

    Well-documented. Most of the raised panel line moved to China at least a couple years ago. It was crap well before they moved, though.

    Right tool or not, a scrawny little bastard like me shouldn't be able to repeatedly sheer a 3/8" ratchet by hand with no cheater bar.

    GarageJournal tested a bunch of common ratchets and the Craftsman stuff was consistently at the bottom. Not just in feel, but in strength.

    You buy what you want/like, though. Beating up someone else for their choice in tools is silly. If you like the Craftsman stuff and it works for you, then that's awesome. For my needs, i just couldn't deal with it anymore.
