I fondle the ads for Kobalt tools and wander the tools section of Sears, though I've heard Craftsman tools aren't like they used to be.
True, sadly. I probably will never buy Crapsman again.
I have tons of experience tearing Craftsman tools apart like way to much as in that was our primary business for like 2 years. If one is looking for quality you have to buy the Craftsman Professional line. The regular craftsman line is hit and miss. The 19.2 EX models are good for the price. I'd stay away from the regular craftsman cordless tool line below 19.2 (EX,Diehard, C3), the 18.0 volts and down are built like crap and come with shitty chargers.
The good thing about the 19.2 (EX,Diehard,C3) line is that one can pick up gobs of tools on ebay for cheap( I know we used to sell them), and then go buy a new battery and charger from sears. You literally save a few hundred bucks on a complete set doing it that way.
Companion (another sears brand), is crap, as well, but cheaper.
If I wasn't awash in Craftsman Cordless tools from then (I still have like a couple hundred drills, LOL, we had semi-truck loads before, so not much left in comparison),
I'd buy Makita probably.
That's all in relation to the cordless tools, which was our primary focus.
