Pretty good.

Bought it 4 months ago

Drill can break 1/4 20 screws

little circ saw kicks ass, but has short battery life. very nicey made.

sawzwall works but seems light for serious work

rotozip is good

right angle drill is very handy and seems tough

vacuum[whatever] is useless

actually used the little flashlight a few times, handy due to common battery

chainsaw is good for bittersweet[vine] control and fallen branch duty

haven't used the impact driver

Batteries are cheap, I think 40 bucks for a pair, so I bought a spare
pair, and it comes in handy when you are really working. Since yo ought
to wait for the battery to cool down before charging, it gives you 2 in
tools and one in the charger and one waiting to be charged

figure I 'm into it for less than 400 bucks, and have quite a few hours
on the drill, roto zip and little saw, It was well spent.

I had the rotozip and the button to lock the shaft to remove bits broke
in less than a month of use the drill circular saw and sawzall have
been very good. Rotozip total junk!
