I recently posted a blurb on discovering that all or the majority of the Bosch Hammers are coming out of PRC. This includes their large/largest roto hammers. NOT out of some European country like their previous lienup.
Do you care what COO your tool comes from ?
I generally shop for what's best in it's catagory. For hand tools, most if not all my hand tools are made in Germany, Sweden or of European descent....I'm talking drivers, wrenchs, pliers, etc..
I LOVE all my Milwaukee tools. Innovative and aside from their drills/impacts, I have a ton of their specialty-niche stuff like the Propex, Adhesive Gun, Bandsaw, etc.
Do you avoid tools made in PRC if you can ?
I'm typing this off my Mac.....and well, I think all my Milwaukee tools are PRC. Most of corded are of European descent. Even my new Dewalt Framing Cordless is of European origins. Lasers are PLS and Leica - as they are of USA and Austia Origin.
So let me hear it. Do you care what COO your tools are made in.
Everything seems to be coming out of PRC these days. I knew Bosch cordless came out from there, but I would never have expected their hammer line to.
Hell, just picked up 2 OEM PARTS FROM THE DEALER for the wifes car. Guess what. My originals were stamped made in Germany. The new ones.....PRC
