Same here. But I will tell you that I think that craftsman power tools have gone down in quality in the last 10 years or so. Not so for the hand tools. I have moved on to DeWalt for power tools.
Another tool which you need to spend cash on for quality is a chainsaw. I am on my third one in 8 years. Only a good one will cut straight. My first was a Craftsman and last two were (is) Poulan.. I am totally dissatisfied. I am going to spring for $300 or $400 on the next one and get one that cuts through wood like a hot knife through butter.
