When you’re determined to get the job done, reach for DEWALT®.

Shop with confidence knowing that Tools-Plus.com is an Authorized Internet Retailer. While both DeWalt and Craftsman are fairly good brands, overall, the former is manufacturing what could be considered to be slightly better tools. Another key point to note is that Craftsman tools tend to have more 20V options as opposed to 12V. While the latter might have less power, they are also lighter and much more portable, so keep that in mind when buying your tools. In general, Craftsman tools are considered to be of lower quality than DeWalt, but they are also cheaper.
This separates a lot of cheap tools from cheap but good quality. Next we have the laser/painted/etched vs stamped question on the labels. If you can get it go with stamped but this is rare. ALL other options no matter what they say come right off if the socket runs on something. They talk up their laser etched stuff but none of my high end socket labels that are not stamped are visible after six months.’Finally impact vs nonimpact.
You save money buying quality and getting just what you need, not a bunch of crappy tools and oddball bits you never use. Interest does not accrue during the period of the plan. There is no administration fee charged for entering into a special payments plan. Each month during an equal payments plan you are required to pay in full by the due date that month’s equal payments plan instalment. One of the flagship products of the hand tool line is DeWalt’s new 15-ounce MIG welded framing hammer.
Meanwhile, DeWalt offers 20V Max and FLEXVOLT systems for its power tools. Dewalt has eight 20V Max drill/drivers and three 20V Max hammer drills. Craftsman has twelve impact drivers and impact wrenches, and about eight cordless drills and hammer drills. Besides these, they both have a large selection of air tools, nailers, grinders, saws, heat guns, planers, jointers, lights, sanders, wet/dry vacuums, radios, etc. Black & Decker was long associated with lighter weight consumer tools such as household appliances, and not the heavy duty equipment professional builders wanted.
Black & Decker found it useful to relinquish a name with little appeal to many consumers in the market for construction tools. In wrenches you want combination wrenches unless you have some special needs. It’s more expensive but get ratcheting box ends now and thank me later.

One for 1/4 and 3/8, one for 1/2” with impact wrenches in each plus a lot of adapters, Tory bits, hex bits, etc. Electrical service work requires an insane amount of tools, more than mechanics. We just don’t need as many really large tools. Earlier this spring DEWALT introduced an entire new line of hand tools.
In terms of tool boxes/bags I do electrical work so I have the electrician open top 12×12 bag. Fully loaded it’s almost uncomfortable to carry. I have one strictly for my 1” to 2” wrenches. The sockets all fit in two Dewalt medium Toughsystem boxes.
