the truth about milwaukee an aeg tools

[toolsreview]

When I decided to buy this Milwaukee tool (PLH 32 XE) I was convinced that I was getting the “top of the art” heavy duty tool. Boy was I WRONG. The drill soon showed its true origin and broke down after a few months. Maybe a long time ago Milwaukee made some good and long lasting tools but now days, when it has been sold to some profit loving Chinese company “TECHTRONIC INDUSTRIES”, they lost their quality for professionalists. It is true that they look nicer… fancier to be precise but when it comes to hard working tools that pay off every penny you paid for they don’t stand a chance compared to Metabo, Festool, Blue Bosch …. When I dissembled my new AEG BS 12 X (12 V cordless drill), because of some strange noise coming from inside, I discovered that it has motor made in China , besides that one of the butteries died after a few months, so what more proof do you want to realize that behind these once famous tool makers now stands no quality, but only one big money hungry machinery. I would advise everyone not to buy neither Milwaukee nor AEG tools (they are the same and bought are owned by tti industries). If you like that fancy looking semi professional tools than don’t waste money on AEG or MILWAUKKEE simply buy Black & Decker tools that are equal in quality but much cheaper than these two previously mentioned “brands”

How very sad, until about six years ago, when I gave it away, I had a 7 1/4" AEG circular saw made in Germany. I gave it a very hard life, including cutting openings in brick walls where the dust was so thick that I couldn't see more than a couple of inches in front of me. Never a single breakdown. The only reason I gave it away was that the Triton saw was designed for the Triton table, making adjustments a breeze.

Hi Guys

If I recall the AEG tool line is one that's at the bottom of the tool barrel ... I once had a drill that was a AEG and it would make a better hammer than a drill...I once sold used tools and the AEG tools was the one I would stack up on the table ,,, "any item on this table for 5.oo dollars "and most just didn't sell at any price...
