Tool guys...need input.

Its not really money im worried about. I mostly want something thats gonna be professional quality. Something thats gonna be easy to find a replacement bulb or parts.

Well, I'll tell you from experience, brands such as Mac Tools & other such as Matco are comparable to JL Audio in the car audio world... Yes, they are high quality products, but the price is extremely inflated.

Snap-on offers high quality product, as does Craftsman, but at a lower price. I found one for you here from Snap-On for $46, you'd simply have to provide your own extension cord (easily found at Harbor Freight for a low price).

I used to work there for 3 years...

wow alot more ppl work (worked) there than i thought....

I work there in the lawn and garden section on commission and sell in tools/sporting goods. I would have to agree with the whole quality issue on certain things. The only tools id buy there are the hand tools, they may not be the best but if it does break on you, take it back and get a new one with no questions asked...

Oh and x2 on it being a shitty place to work, the managers are always pressuring us to sell the replacement warrentys, service contracts and credit and our hours depend on our numbers. But being 17 its not bad making $11 an hour, specially the way todays world is

One year limited to manuf. Defects. Which basically means, your fucked if anything breaks, Sears wont do shit for you.
