Craftsman NEXTEC 12 Volt Lithium-Ion Hammerhead Auto Hammer
This is a great invention. It is portable and compact and easy to use. With that said it does have some negatives. I am a professional roofer, it comes in very handy in tight spaces like under soffits over hangs valleys and chimneys. It works great on firm solid surfaces such as one byes, two byes and half inch or thicker OSB. It does not however work as well on half inch or thinner plywood. It does seem a little weak at times and you really have to put a lot of pressure behind it. I like the quick charge time and the batteries seem to have fairly good run time.
Craftsman 19.2V C3 Impact Wrench Add-On
i am very very impressed with this new unit..i have 5 other C3 tools and have been waiting for a stronger impact than the 1/4" one that has been out. today i brought it to the junkyard , removed 2 wheels with it then took the huge strut bolts out and the a arm bolts out on a mustang. those of you that have done this know they require alot of power. this was all done on a Lithium battery witch i might consider a must with this 1/2" gun
buy and you will no regret! it is about time!
Craftsman Nextec Hammerhead Auto Nailer
I ordered the Craftsman Nextec Hammerhead Auto Nailer, because it always seems that I can not get my large or small hammer into tight spaces without being a huge chore. The auto hammer can be a bit awkward when you have to hold the nail for the first hit, but, once the nail is started, it works very well.
Craftsman 3 gal. Air Compressor, 1 hp, Horizontal Tank
I've had mine four years. All the good things I agree with. By looking at things, it appears to me that the unit itself is well designed. Put together? that appears to be another story... Most of the issues with this are that it broke. When they worked before they broke people were OK with it. I believe a little quality assurance on the assemly lines could improve customer satisfaction. People appear to like the unit just not how its put together Sears, why don't you contact your subcontractor and indicate you aren't happy with their quality control... This is one where that cheap...

Craftsman CompuCarve Computer-Controlled Compact Woodworking Machine
Unfortunately, I was one of the countless consumers that bought into the hype about this so-called amazing machine. Was I wrong. I have spent dozens of hours on the phone with tech support trying to get this machine to work properly. I have wasted far too much time trying to get this machine fix, and far too much money on what turned out to be scrap wood for my fireplace. They actually sent me someone else's repaired machine as a replacement for my defective machine, instead of a new one! Even after sending the machine back 3 times for repair, it works for maybe 2 or 3 projects...

Craftsman 1/2 hp Garage Door Opener, Chain Drive
Bought the 149.99 opener with the 2 remotes and wireless exterior key pad. Got the old opener down and put the the craftsman opener together in approximately a couple hours,read and reread the instructions several times, the instructions are very clear even helped me to fix an imbalance in the door. If you don't know how to wind/unwind tension in the dual springs get a pro to do it ther is enough force in them to very seriuosly injure and could possibly kill any way. The opener went up very easy I just mounted where the old one was took about 45 minutes to do that being careful again.

Craftsman Professional 25 gal. Air Compressor, 1.8 hp, Horizontal Tank
I've seen some reviews for this stating it doesn't come with oil and that a few have ruined the compressor motor by starting it up without oil. Mine arrived with oil and I read the manual before starting it and the manual states it already has oil. Maybe Sears made some changes to alleviate warranty repairs. So far this compressor works great and seems to outperform my Craftsman 4hp oiless compressor that I had for over 12 years. It is much, much quieter and I can place it right next to the doorway leading from the garage to my home without any concerns about the sounds of it running. It...

Craftsman C3 19.2 volt Cordless Combo Kit with RA Drill
I use these drills in remodelling my large kitchen. They are great for heavy work as well as light. I like them so much I bought an additional set plus extra batteries since I use them all day and I don't have to change bits. The price is right & the quality is there. The cordless drills are especially convenient for putting down backerboard & installing my kitchen cabinets. Since one drill has a variable torque and the other is a right angle drill they are always ready to go. I am a 69 year old woman. I have many Craftsman power and hand tools. I am even teaching my husband how to use them....

Craftsman C3 19.2 volt DieHard Cordless Drill/Driver with LED Light
I have used this drill for at least 3 years and find it outstanding. It's great for what I use it for, which is projects around the house. The price is very reasonable. I like having two batteries so that I can always complete the job and the flashlight is nice too, although I really haven't needed it. I'm buying another one as a Christmas present for my son.
Craftsman 10 in. Table Saw, Portable
FWIW, I have been an avid woodworker for 35 years. Here's a tip for table saw newbies - If you need a "super accurate" saw, stop looking at bench top style saws or anything else where the blade is mounted directly onto the motor. Direct drive will NEVER be "super" accurate. Pretty good? Sure, a well made, adjusted, and maintained direct drive saw CAN be pretty good. This one falls into that category. Keep it clean and double check your adjustments and you can do very nice work with this machine. Fail to perform proper maintenance... all bets are off.
Having said that, I've had this saw for a few...

Craftsman 1/2 hp Garage Door Opener, Chain Drive
Replaced an 8 year old Craftsman opener. Easy to install, with smooth operation, and also has enhanced security.
Craftsman 1/2 hp Garage Door Opener, Chain Drive
My door keeps going up and down all times of the day and night. I called for help and was told there is a 90 day warranty and they probably could not help and it would cost 69 dollars to look at it. DO NOT BUY
Craftsman 1 hp Air Compressor, 4 gal.
Folks, the customer service I received was great! I was too early for the, "Friends & Family" automatic 10% off. The Sears rep told me to not buy this Open box item and to come back at 6:00 pm to save 10%. Ok I said. Went back and brought the unit home. Tightened down all the screws to make sure they were snug. Filled with oil, air filter installed, fired up and went to pressure cut-off. Not too loud. UPS is picking up my Allpower APC 4028 return sometime in the morning. Fired it up and it could not hold air. All Power manufacturer sent me a new safety air release...I installed it to only find...

Craftsman Garage Door Opener System with Die Hard Battery Back-Up, Belt Drive
Just plan on buying two wall controllers the first will fail after 3-4 months. The opener seems to be a quality piece it is very quiet and seems to be sturdy. I wish the same could be said about the controller which was the selling point for me. Of course after 30 days this becomes your problem. Good Luck
