I dunno, I've had good luck with Aldi and Lidl "Center Isle" power tool purchases. Thats Workzone and Parkside tools, a far cry from mid to high-end. If I use something enough that it merits a replacement, I buy the Makita version

Those are still from a reputable store. I think the really cheap ones are the Chinese ones that don't even have a brand name. Slightly above that are the Chinese made ones with a nonsense word for the brand name.
