After contemplating the worx masters deal, Bosch price match deal, settled on this one …..read the reviews on masters website .. informative …for more info. Great units given 2x batteries, lightweight, 2ah, well built (went though options with Bosch etc these feel better in hand and seem more responsive) 3yr warranty…recommend to all looking. Staff made a mention this was an intro offer and price would be going up ..taken with grain of salt of course.
Sorry yes Masters. Sorry should have linked have contacted support to fix as deal ends today with $25 of EDR25 code
batteries have 3yrs? or just the drill/driver?
home use warranty or trade?
States ,"tool is intended for professional and private,non professional users." 3 yr warranty via registration 1+ 2yr with registration. Batteries excluded from extended 2yr warranty
Not the cheapest it's been. Was $219 earlier in the year.
I wonder if these are rebadged 'something' from the stanley works stables, or if they are new designed units.
Made in china, I assume? (not that that is a bad thing)
also for any buyers another important point is what else is in the tool range that shares common batteries. Milwaukee, ryobi, makita, bosch, they all have a great range of tools you can buy just skins and reuse. Fatmax has a few, but range looks inferior to the other brands mentioned.
They look very, very similar to my Dewalt 18v drivers. Not just the black and yellow, but the actual tools and batteries.
Also, Dewalt and Stanley are both brands of b&d international, so…
I have these myself after considerable research for reviews online. These just appear to be rebranded porter cable 20v tools which are targeted at trade with a colour change. The specs of the tools themselves are better than the bosch green that I had previously.
I got my set for roughly $190 though.
Not that it matters now for the deal but as allergic2work stated, they are most likely re-branded Porter Cable "20v Max" tools (marketing spin on 18v tools). See here: http://www.portercable.com/Products/ProductDetail.aspx?Produ…
Not sure if it has been posted, but saw a 18v Bosch pack at bunnings some days ago. Drill + driver + 2 batteries +bag for $199. Good price and they had a whole stack of them. Might be popular with Christmas though so not sure how stock levels are.
Hey OP they also have a 4 piece combo kit with the drill, driver, reciprocal saw and angle grinder for $449. But it's only got two light duty 2Ah batteries.
Very tempting but also very annoying.
where? guessing masters
