Are masterforce tools any good. Today were looking at the shootout performance of the masterforce 20v brushless drill in our epic 50 drill shootoutthe brand comes to us as a menards exclusive built by chervon and joining the ranks of kobalt 24v max and skil 12v20v cordless tools. There are lots of good masterforce tools ive found. I have several masterforce tools im sorry to say and some of them broke under normal use. I have the craftsman version you linked to and so far its been a good saw.
I bought a high rpm masterforce 120 volt 38ths drill 2 years ago to mix tapeing and textureing compound with for sheetrock because i wore my makita out. The levels were made by stabila for a while and were a good deal. Now my local menards is renovating its selection and clearancing a lot of other brands just to replace them with a lot of masterforce versions. My understanding is that the masterforce tools at menards are just rebranded from other companies same production line different finishcolors.
But they changed vendors for some reason. I have used a few minutes screw tips and bis when they did not ot have what i needed in a name brand they did not reallymleave an impression on me as to whether they were good mm or bad. Alwaysnlooked at them as cheap imitations. Masterforce 20v brushless drill geared for greater bit range.
I dont buy any tools at menards unless it is bosch. That particular band saw is also a rikon and a few other companies. Milwaukee tools are right in there with the best and are the best. Ive found some masterforce trowels and concrete tools are also made in the usa.
You have to look for certain things. The screwdrivers and sockets are mostly made in the usa. Never tried their masterforce tools. Ive noticed that some of the masterforce tools are identical except for color to ones sold at harbor freight.
