@dieselholicpullteam I feel the same way never had a problem and by the way they don’t warrenty power tools only hand tools some power tools may have a limited warrenty but mostly only replace hand tools but not many companys warrnty power tools because you never know how well people maintain them
@hooah7962 I don’t know what snap-on guy he goes to but any time i have ever had exchange a snapon tool i got a new one right on the spot one time i exchanged a hammer that my dad bought 25 years earlier they gave me a new and improved up to date one no charge and i bet you guys had a lot harder time breaking the snap-on ratchet then the crapsman
@zanuha The point is that the company puts a lot of thought into how they engineer their tools. If they were to apply their rigorous standards to the manufacture of surgical instruments, which I know are made differently, the result could be…
That being said, there are many other great companies out there as well.
@eBiology
Or not, because heat treating knives is a _little_ bit different from heat treating socket wrenches.
…and more of your wallet.
@youruglybuddy Stanly proto is better than snap on. Industrial companies use it.
@hooah7962 i havent had a problem with my snap on ratchet and i broke it on purpose i broke it by the flex head by putting it in a vise and hit the ratchet part with a hammer and he gave me a new one no Questions asked. then i replaced my old flywheel holder and it got replaced so i don’t know what your talking about. but if all you can afford is craftsman that’s good and all, but don’t down talk another tool company oh and i have craftsman, snap-on, mac, and matco tools.
@hooah7962 when working as a automotive technician we are constantly flagging hours meaning we need reliable tools that are known to last (AKA SNAPON) because once our tool breaks (CRAFTSMAN) we can’t perform as well to make 14 hour pay in a 8 hour day. you being a aviation technician dont have to work to beat the hours that the specific job pays so i guess your choice of tools doesnt matter.
i haven’t had a single problem with getting a replacement tool with snapon.
I love my snap-on box and tools. i went into my tool buying biased against snap-on because I felt they were the Kleenex of tools (known brand) but they proved me wrong. Maybe its just my local rep, but my service is excellent, low pressure, good deals, excellent warranty, and great service. Even when i buy used tools from craigslist like my big KRL7023, he still wants to make sure im happy with it by helping me clean it up. he cares more about the snap on brand than himself and i appreciate that
@Thesupersmith79
Never had an issue with Snap-On warranty and i dont even work at a pro shop, just work in our farms shop. If i ever need anything, warrenty, new purchase, or just curious, I call or text my snap-on guy and he is there that day. If its warrenty work on hand tools and he has one on the truck, its in my hands before i get off the truck. If he doesnt have it, he drop ships it to my door, i havent had any power tool warrenty claims yet though.
@702dirtrider check on german tools like hazet. those are very expensive and great! i have a mix of everything. knipex pliers, wera screwdrivers, snap on wrenches,ratchets,sockets. and craftsman get my business for the cheaper stuff.
There is a difference. I had a younger tech trying to loosen a rear diff bolt on a class 8 truck, Using a craftsman impact socket on a IR 1/2 impact. Rattle Rattle is all I hear. I walked over handed him a Snap On socket. He took the bolt out with my socket on the same impact wrench. He was amazed that a socket made that difference. He removed all the bolts in the rear end with my socket. When time maters use what works not what might work.
Yeah thats fine and all, BUT I can buy a complete craftsman pro-series master mechanic tool set and pro series roll cab, and top for the price of only your tool box. And if I break a socket or something it’s always at least a week before I see a replacement from the snap-on guy. So I’ll take my chances with the craftsman stuff, at least I can feed my family instead of the snap-on guy!
Oops thought it said strap on!
@hooah7962 I had a buddy try to explain that craftsman is for homeowners and snapon for real techs. Not true in the least
@hooah7962 I call BS unless your friend is dealing with a terrible Snap On dealer. I can take anything on the truck and get it replaced ASAP, usually on the spot, a week later if its something he has to order in. 99% of the time though there is not even any questions asked. You get what you pay for, and some tools just feel better in your hands and get a job done more easily. Tell me how Craftsman ratchets are, 36 teeth vs 80? And can your little 3/8″ ratchet hold 250ft/lbs? didnt think so.
Snapon tools are the best hands down, Mac and Matco are right up there though, most people that don’t like expensive high quality tools are not professionals who rely on them to make there living that’s when quality counts. When you put food on the table with your tools and work with them 8 hours a day cheap tools just don’t cut it. Now some will argue Snapon is the best but not that much better that they can charge 2-3 times of what Sears does.
i have boxes from walmart that each have about 200 lbs of tools in each one and no problems are even coming close to happening, so so much for snapon and i only paid 100 bucks a box
@JendrusZbojnik iam sure snapon use to have good quaility 50 years ago but these days the way tools are mass produced iam sorry to tell you the QC is not as good, i have heard form some of larger snapon freaks i know that will swear that even master craft is better then snapon for tools and master craft tool boxes are also climbing in quaility as well. snapon and macto are names you pay for same as sony was once good but not any more the little guys are taking over,
@KevinMillard68 there actually have alot more quality in them than matco. and mac and snapon are pretty much the same in prices and most things. btw my dad has a snap on tool box from the 90′s and nothing ever broke and he uses it 12hrs a day mon thru friday. his friend and a mat co from 2008 and drawers broke and the bottom started bending. and it was used in a home garage with half of the tools in it.. so.. depends on ur opinion
snap-on for the win. hands down best tools
I still prefer to use my cornwell box, but there still good tools.
less box can also lead to less quailty , metal thickness makes a huge difference in over all quaility, security is a joke,if someone wants in they will get into it no matter how secure it is,if your that worryied about getting tools stolen , then get insurance,or pick a new carrer,what this video show is alot of slander iam supprised snapon is not in a lawsuit over it , even tv commericals are not alowed to mention the other brands by name,..why cause its slander totaly illeagle.
@aaronlaskowski you are 100% correct. Stick with what you can afford and some day you will get your snap on tools and box after you have earned a bit of money.
this way of making advertising is very bad and not profesional at all.
