Why 90% of New POWER TOOLS Are Garbage (The "Plastic Gear" Secret)

Описание: Why 90% of New Power Tools Are Garbage (The "Plastic Gear" Secret)

1:35 — The battery trap: cordless locked you into a subscription
2:40 — Brands to avoid: consumer tier + prosumer illusion
3:45 — The survivors: Milwaukee FUEL, Makita Industrial, Festool
5:00 — The Rule (3 checks)


THE RULE: Check the gears. Check the motor. Check the housing. If all three are plastic/brushed/plastic — you're buying a consumable, not a tool.

THE SURVIVORS:
#1 Festool — 10,000+ hrs, authorized dealers only, $400–$1,500
#2 Milwaukee FUEL — brushless, metal gears, 5,000+ hrs, $149–$399
#3 Makita Industrial — metal housing, 15+ years unchanged, $129–$499

THE 3 CHECKS:
• Gears: Steel or plastic?
• Motor: Brushless or brushed?
• Housing: Metal or plastic?
