Craftsman is a one time only warranty. Break it twice you're SOL.

Snap-on.

Replaced my $700 hub puller for free. The one that broke was my great grandfather's and was used in a shop (which is now in its 3rd generation, same family from the start) in the 1930s. Covered it no questions asked, even got to keep my broken tool as a heirloom.

Customer service #1 is Snap-on.

I like Matco quality better.

Broke most of my Craftsman wrenches, replaced with Matco. Haven't broke one yet, and I ABUSE tools.

x2
as long as it says craftsman somewhere on the tool and you dont plug it in, you can return it. no receipt, no questions asked. on the couple of occasions that i broke some craftsman i just go to sears and get another. in and out in 2 minutes. my dad has bought craftsman for as long as i can remember and now so do i.

I didn't call it a car, I said vehicle. I never knew her truck as anything else but a Ford Ranger.

Never been a fan of Ford either, except mustangs I am slowly fixing up a 72 Mach 1, it runs really very well for an original 72 vehicle, mom said her Ranger was pretty bulletproof too. Don't think I would buy a new Ford though, I'm a Dodge man as well

Like I said earlier. Snap-On refused to replace our air ratchet that we bought from them about 5 years before it wore out. They said we could buy a new on e or a refurbished one, so we went with the cheaper refurbished one. They are good tools, but they're very expensive, and I don't like them ever since they backed out on their warranty. The only thing I've ever broken on a Craftsman was the little plastic switch on the back of a 1/4" hand ratchet that switches it from right to left. In my opinion, Craftsman is the best bang for your buck, but that's just me. Plus, as an American, I love seeing "MADE IN USA", which you don't see often anymore, on something I use and appreciate the quality of.
