Those tools are now made in China...watch out.....

Me personally: Those "protection agreements" to me are a big waste of money. Take that money and put it in the bank. If you've bought a quality tool, you will never need it.

If you are handy and fix your own stuff (as I do), that warranty money is better spent on something else.

If I paid an extra $100 or so for that agreement, if you think about it, it should be three or more years before you need to use it (warranty, plus a few years). So, that money could be making money for you elesewhere in the bank, let's say.

I recently bought a garage door (yet to come in from Lowes) and the salesperson asked if I wanted to have Lowes take away the old door (even though I told them I was doing the install). They want like $70 to do so.

I will have that old door into a cube in about 10 minutes time with the reciprocating saw and the metal tracking in the recycling bin in 10 more minutes :).

I'll save that $70 for something else ;).

Up one level
