As a part-time contractor I have used my tools weekly for the last 8 months and put them through quite a bit and I've had no issue whatsoever they have all worked great. One thing that's nice too is they're not overly expensive like very well name brand tools.. so if for some reason someone stole them or they walked off it wouldn't kill my pocketbook.
I'm a new homeowner, artist, and millwork engineer. I just purchased this set and I was very pleased with the weight, build, and how these tools felt to hold. Thanks for your video. It's nice to see an experienced person's thoughts on them.
Brother, I never leave reviews, but you killed it. I just bought a 7 piece set from lowes on sale for $249 because of this video. Cheers man I hope you blow up! BTW you should look at doing a post owned/used review. Like after you have owned and used the tools for 6/8 months
I enjoyed this review. You talk to your audience very calmly unlike many other reviewers who review stuff but make it too "CineMatic" as if their video is scripted. This was more of NATURAL tone review. I like.
The craftsman tools are great for the money. I love them for project and stuff around the house. Only reason I got into crafts was bc my job has them and we have so many batteries they give them to us so I had about 5 batteries with no craftsman tools so I figured why not. Overall 8 out of 10 for my needs
I use my drill and impact every day building furniture for a living and I have no complaints. The impact driver my collet gave out easy after the bearings came out of it 🤬 but other than that their great tools. Craftsman is my number 1 go to
If i can afford to have a tool kit like this, my life would change completely and can live a better life, you are such a lucky person to have all of that.
hey man, this is a very inexpensive tool kit. A few months of saving and I'm sure you would be able to purchase this for yourself. It's roughly 400 CAD on Amazon Canada. That's about 300 USD. Cheers :)
@@kaizer2k2 there is nothing to purchase near our region that is the problem
@@hriattearalte oh sorry to hear that.
They have it on BlackFriday/ Cyber Monday at Lowe's right now until Dec 01,2020. Just done order mine this morning!
I just bought this set for $400 at lowes and they had a deal where you get a 4 ah battery for free with purchase. Thanks for the review, im exited to use the tools!
Great video. Very knowledgeable and well presented. A pro!
Thank you! Sam Craft for the video. I have been looking into a V20 system.
Glad it was helpful! I have enjoyed it ever since and used it a lot for many projects!
Just looked at this set tonight, thanks so much for the detailed review
I still use these tools to this day and they've been great! Have put them through a lot of heavy projects, too. My only wish was that they offered a brushless drill & impact driver in this set. I'd love to change over to brushless drills.
You did a good basic review without all the mind numbing specs that anyone can look up. Good job. Thx
Super informative, thank you for doing this!
Glad it was helpful!
Good quality video vision and sound, like all your video's.
Great first look at your kit. I really like the flashlight!! LOL
In all seriousness though, I think that is a great value for the DIYer and homeowner/weekend warrior. for half the price of a Dewalt or Milwaukee set, I would say that you cant go wrong. Great job Sam!
Much appreciated! So far I am still very pleased with the set, but have plans for making more in depth videos of it, too.
Stanley black and decker owns craftsman and dewalt. So you are going to somewhat see the same performance. The 1/4in impacts are identical in specs and looks.
Great review. Don't think you left anything out. Just this week I have baught the brushless sawzall and drill and impact flashlight multi tool. I up dated and up graded my tools from cheap wallmart hyper tough tools to the craftsman tools. I haven't used them yet but I'm sure there way better than hyper tough. Thanks for sharing.
Good stuff!! Brushless is the way to go, too. Congrats!
Awesome review Sam thanks buddy
I appreciate you watching and commenting for me!
the flashlight is one of the best tools in that bag to a maintenance man lol. use mine constantly!
That's an awesome set, Sam.
It's been great!
I just picked up this set came with one big bag
The 6 and the 8 piece combo kits are available at Lowe’s in Canada.
A well done review,thanks.I subscribed.
Cool, thanks!
Awesome and very informative video
Glad it was helpful!
Nice video. I bought the kit today from Lowe’s for $279. 😎
Nice!! I think you'll like them -- I've used them exclusively ever since buying the kit for a TON of projects and they've all been great!!
Excellent review
Glad you liked it!
Hey sam, I bought the same set on black Friday 2 years ago. What's you thoughts now after having them for a few months? I love the set, but my sander took a dive on me last fall. And I've used it maybe a grand total of 8 times. I couldn't believe it. I usually use all corded sanders on my projects.
Great video brother!!
Appreciate it!
Great tools
They have been great ever since, too! I've used them non-stop for years now with no issues!
I enjoyed Thurley your review As Like yourself ,I to had the same thought of what i thought important to Me And came with More in 2023 XMaz
You presented everything just perfect easy to under stand and calmly focused manner . you pointed out three things i never even thought of excellent presentational content
And for that i subscribed to your chanel because all of the above Thank you Sir for Uploading honestly your Belief content
They look a bit large. I am guessing they are brushed motors in them, no? I don't use tool bags either. Lights are just a throw in tool to increase count, but at least they work on the same battery platform. All the brands do it. Hope you have fun enjoying your new toys.....when Angela lets you use them that is...lol.
You're right -- brushed motors and they are a bit on the large side compared to other compact and even subcompact systems out there. Thanks Jim!
How do u use the impact gun? I mean abt the adapter
If you can review the craftsman cordless portable fan and cordless 2 gallon portable shop vac.
The funniest thing about this video
Is that if these tool was painted yellow it would have 100k views
Great video bro
You need the new brushless circular saw by craftsman it's a beast
You've got that right!!!
I recently switched to Craftsman as well, but decided to go brushless due to the fact that the Craftsman brushed models cannot be repaired. An owner would have to spend roughly $30 for a whole new motor unit. Unlike Craftsman big brother DeWalt that does allow the changing of brushes on theirs.
I really the brushless models!
Belt clip! The Dewalt belt clips will work however you’ll need to trim a little plastic away from the tool for the clip to fit.
Not a problem
Awesome! Thank you so much for this!!!
I naught this at Lowes last month an I go in yesterday and it's on sale for $100 less.
That's my luck.
But they all work pretty well.
Nice review! I've been using the little 12v craftsman nextec system for years with much success but now they are hard to find. I think they may have quit making them.
Interesting, I'd never heard of that system but just looked it up. Very cool system! I like how compact they are and it looks to be a predecessor to this one-battery-multiple-tool system, too. Thanks for sharing!
nice
It would be better if the sawsall load a spot for a rafter hook instead of a belt clip
I bet the dewalt belt clips would fit on craftsman tools
They sound like they have a lot of torque when you hit those triggers. It's this or Kobalt 24v, but I'm an around the house guy. I need value for the minimal use these tools will get.
I've been happy with them and still use the tools to this day. Only the drill has a little play in the chuck, but that's because I dropped it off a roof onto gravel. Still works, just a little bit wobbly sometimes. :)
Know how to use all these tools, however would love to see you use them in some smaller projects. Very often I use the right tool for the wrong job or wrong tool for right job. Anyway, usually I can make things work out but the project may look it. 🤭😁
Thanks love watching your channel.
Thank you so much! I will try my best. 🙂
I agree! I’m a beginner DIYer and I can use the tools but get confused about what they are supposed to be for.
Any videos on these products being used
So I bought into the Milwaukee circle of tools and if I was just be getting out in carpentery or woodworking I wouldn’t invest in Milwaukee I think that would be a better option instead of jumping headfirst into the city of Milwaukee tools that I have but I really think it would be more worth it for me if it had a hammer drill instead of the regular drill because you’re gonna be able to do a lot more with the hammer drill instead of a regular drill
On the fence re getting this set for 2021. I’m not seeing an update video. How have the tools stood up ? Thanks
I still use them to this day! Have built many projects, home renovations, and more with them. The only thing I wish they had was a kit with the brushless drills in it so they'd be smaller, but from a functionality standpoint they've been great.
I am I DeWALT guy but I’m watching this because it’s you lol. And holy shit man this is a hell of a review. Kuddos
I really appreciate that, it means a lot! I looked at the DeWalt kit, but it wasn't in the budget this go-around. They're good tools I've heard! Thanks for the kind words and comment!
Samcraft of course man! And yes DeWALT is more spendy but for a contractor a brand like that is needed as you said. For you you’re just doing little projects at a time or not full day use everyday. I will say you may need a few more batteries other then that don’t look bad.
These are just red dewalt tools. Stanley Dewalt purchased Craftsman in 2017.
Joe Blow I know what you’re saying but that’s saying Lexus and Toyota have no differences just a logo. Craftsman and DeWALT may be the same “company” but there’s massive differences
@@dustinwheeler4468 No they really aren't, people have torn them apart. There are slight cosmetic differences. This isn't just a same company comparison. More like GMC / Chevrolet.
The body of the craftsman impact gun looks just like the old potor cable nicad impact. Hmmmmmm
They brushless?
Any chance you made follow ups on these??
I've not filmed one yet, but use them all the time and still love the tools. My only real complaint is the batteries supplied don't last very long for the bigger tools like the sander and saws. But that's easily fixed by getting some of their larger 4.0 Ah batteries. I do plan to film an update though -- soon!
I think the flashlights are just A huge profit pad in kits. I'd even pay a little more for the kit if they'd trade that in for a blower or even a third battery
Seriously! I would too!
No doubt craftsman used the portor cable molds and production line to make its new 20 volt line. There is way too many simalarities.
You should checkout Stanley v20 tools, they’re literally the exact same mold as these craftsman ones, they’re sold only in Europe and Australia I think
Are the motors brushless and what other amp hour batteries are available? 🦀
The motors are brushed motors. There are 2.0Ah and 4.0Ah batteries available for the v20 system at this time. If interested, all these links (and more) are in the video description. Thanks!
how have these held up? I'm just a DIY guy wanting to teach my sons and ive lost most my stuff over the years so was looking into this.
All of the batteries and chargers are still going perfect. All of the tools in the set are also still operational, but I've upgraded a few to the brushless models since getting these 4 years ago. They have all been worked heavily and not just sat on a shelf. :)
👍
Hi!!!!....Would you recommend a brushless one as a first toolkit?.... brushless is valueble to a DIY weekend warrior ?....
You will not be disappointed with brushless tools and if they fit in your budget, then yes, get them!
If you got the money always get brushless they tin to last longer I would recommend either the craftsman or ryobi for the diyer homeowner they are cheaper tool lines but built well but if you are going to use and abuse them I get DeWalt or milwaukee
I only recieved 1 bag with this kit
Thanks for this. It's now more than two years later. I see you using them in your videos. How are they performing?
They've done great honestly! The drill is a little wobbly but I dropped it from the roof when we did that project as well as the greenhouse, etc. so not the tool's fault! Batteries are still good and holding their lifecycles and everything else is great. I've wondered about doing a follow up video on them...
@@Samcraftcom please do!
Hey Sam how r u doing? Quick question about craftsman 20v 8 tool combo kit. How are they doing now? Kindly tell me little update. Planning to buy for my Dad.
Thank you very much,
Teboy
They're all still working great for me. The drill is a little noisy and loose at the chuck, but that only surfaced after dropping it from ladder height. It still works though!
I bought the drill and circular saw. The bag with the drills too small to carry the drill, battery and charger🤷♂️
Does it have chargers to connect the V220 or is it just for V110
This set (sold in the USA) only comes with 110 volt chargers. I'm not sure about any international product sales.
These tools look one-on-one Stanley fatmax v20 tools Do you work with the same batteries?
It is build by Stanley and Black and decker and it do not work with Stanley fat max
I bought the Craftsman v20 tools for my home projects. I really liked them. However, I can't find the belt clip anywhere. Have you been able to find it?
I've not! Apparently they don't exist anymore. Ugh... Someone should work a deal with a metal fab shop to produce a few thousand of them and sell them online! I'd buy 8 in a heart beat! :)
I got a kobolt set that came with belt clips maybe they would fit?? I never put them on but my projects are small
Max Burns
Belt clip! The Dewalt belt clips will work however you’ll need to trim a little plastic away from the tool for the clip to fit.
Not a problem
I wonder if I could 3D print some with a carbon printer, and then make a mold.
All my tools are Craftsman 👍🏾
Do you think this would out perform the m12 system from milwaukee I know the voltage is crazy different so don’t laugh lol but milwaukee makes power
I think Milwaukee is a superior tool, just with a superior price tag too. :)
I’m looking at this three years later and got the same 8 tool kit for 299 but mines look different like had a bag circular saw
Update: the charger is different as well yours will charge 12 and 20 v mine doesn’t have that button etc
Another update : only get one bag
Would you say this would be good for a carpenter apprentice or more for just home owner? I have the bauer now but I have been looking at combo kits this one and kobalt. Instead of buying piece by piece
The limitation for apprentice use would be the battery life with these. You can upgrade to the 4.0 aH batteries but then that will add considerable weight to the package. They are durable in my experience though! I've used them for every project around here and on the homestead since buying them and my only complaint is short battery life with the larger tools like the saws and sander.
I think you be able to use these tools for about 3 to 5 yrs til you start making better money then I would invest in DeWalt or milwaukee
One year later review? Did they hold up?
Still using all of them to this day! No complaints from me, given their (ab)use over the years. :)
I heard the sander is garbage how does it work for you
It works fine -- just as good as my plug in sander. Only downside is it's hard on the batteries -- runtime isn't that long. I'm working on an update video of the tool set after months of use.
So after 8 months is it still all you wanted?
Short answer, yes! Long answer, I need to do a follow up video!!!
Let me have your large bag😂
would you recommend this kit?
Yes, I would very much! I've used it ever since buying it and have had great experiences from it. I've built many large projects using the tools, too.
I bought the 4 tool kit Craftsman 20V but the saw has a plastic guard , it feel unsafe , I'm unhappy because I put all my money on this tools and it feel like tools for home not for professional
Good information! I would place these tools in the homeowner / DIY group as well and not the professional / contractor group of consumers. I have several detailed videos and tests planned for this tool kit! Thanks
I would say that a plastic guard is not unsafe but these are prosumer not contractor grade tools, moreover there priced like homeowner tools not contractor tools
Where the nailer
Still at the store. ;)
Screw Amazon!! Lowes and other places have them for just as good prices!!
One major drawback to cordless tools, you are roped into an eco-system. I have a bunch of dewalt, so that is what I buy. Good review, but I won't be buying. I just wish Stanley/Black and Decker would make the batteries interchangeable.
That's true, but also a reason I don't go for off-brand tool names. DeWalt is a really good tool ecosystem!
It’s 2023 and battery adapters are now a thing 👍🏼
I will buy creftsman way not I'm tire of buying Dewalt and Bosh for somebody else las day of 2019 somebody brake in to my truck tool box and took all my tools I won't buy expensive stuff anymore I ben using Craftsman and work just like the heavy stuff so way not
combo kits are of lower quality than the single tools the build quality is lower on kit packages.
I’m writing to mom idc
Had them and they are junk!
