I seem to remember someone buying a set of Kawasaki power tools and had them fall apart almost immediately...seems like they are made in China and Kawasaki merely licensed the name. :)

Now that makes me feel better. I've used Ryobi tools for 20 years. They don't wear out but you can't get the batteries.
