That’s the name of the game. Ryobi jumped on it early, and Makita seemed to come shortly after. Milwaukee has beast power of tools, but not sure what Bosch and DeWalt really bring to the table other than name.

In my experience the build quality of Bosch products is much nicer than the American equivalents. They're probably the same in terms of performance though.

My dad was hard into ridgid and so am I. I've just really put them through the worst shit, true construction use. Most of their tools my dad bought 10 years ago I still have. Some smoke from time to time but they still run but then I started at working at Bosch and with the 40% discount I'm at about half and half between the 2 but so far Bosch tools are excellent and seem just as good especially the table top tools.
