man... all my power tools are Milwaukee since there were some crazy sales when I was starting the collection.
I wonder where they're from
Green Bay
I think top tier is Hilti (Swiss) , expensive of course.
But Bosch, Metabo and Festool are reall good choices ayway.
Hilti is manufactured in several countries however its place of origin and HQ is in Liechtenstein.
Hilti would be up there with Festool, Fein and Mafell but they're high end high price.
Yeah I'm going Japanese.
You think you're turning Japanese?
I really think so.
Yea makita all the way. By far the best
My vacuum cleaner and drill are Bosch products. Good quality.
If only you could order parkside all year around. Currently I have to wait for the product that I want to buy, to randomly appear in one of my local Lidl stores and then rush to hope to get one before they sell out. It's not a real alternative
One of the reasons I went with Einhell. No regrets.
I dunno how the lidl is over where you're at, but here they have a web shop where they sell their parkside tools.
This is my go to online toolshop now. Basically renovated my entire house with Parkside stuff. Can recommend. 5/7 perfect score.
Probably the tool brand with the best bang-for-buck ratio. They tend to not be the most great feeling tools, but they sure work well for the price.
Are you in Germany?
Here in Denmark they just link to Lidl
Vonroc is a Dutch-designed powertool brand, though their manufacturing does take place in China.
Huh, never knew they were Dutch designed
Parkside is shity
Bosch is the way
I have a deep need for that pic of Dr Trump and Mini E
To my knowledge, Parkside and Bosch are mostly manufactured in China. Parkside is a name brand for Lidl, from Grizzly Tools.
My Bosch Professional 12V drills are made in Malaysia.
This makes me randy, baby, yeah!
Bosch, Hilti, Einhell, Metabo, KWB, Iskra, Sheppach, all European.
Hikoki and Makita are Japanese.
TIL Hilti is Liechtensteiner
