Blunt Tool

I listen to what certain sources and reviews tell me and I can’t argue with their advice in the last ten or so years they’ve been giving it to me.
Top of the class Hilti! They’re on a level all on their own. Stepping down from that is Metabo, build quality vs price means they’re a no brainer for most of us. Fesstool were good but they’re in trouble at a corporate level over a price fixing issue or something and then you come down to the likes of Dewalt,Makita,Bosch,Milwaukee etc, mid level tools that hire the best engineers for what they need. They need to offer a tool that lasts 3 years and then pack in so you buy another one and they need to do it so the design-and build costs are approx 10% of the retail price which you can imagine is not easy to do. The moral of the story is if you don’t want to pay for Hilti by Metabo.
What about Flex?
