They aren't brought to the same quality standards. It's kind of like saying
Linksys is Cisco. Not really Linksys are Cisco designs but can still fail some
Cisco quality standards.
But what I'm getting at is Matco makes Kobalt. Matco is a division of
Danaher who also makes Kobalt. If you are at Lowe's thinking wow
that Kobalt tool chest looks just like a Matco. It's because it is with a
different logo. I'm not sure how far down the line that goes.
Regardless if Kobalt has a lifetime warranty, and is made by Matco with
a cheaper price, how could you really go wrong?
Just thought I would share my findings for the budget guys like me that
also want nice tools. I mean if I had a few million in the bank I would have
Snap-On everything. I've used lots of their tools before and I love them but
turning wrenches isn't my job; it's my hobby.
