It’s like anything else, win some, lose some. I’ve had el cheapo brands last forever, while craftsman, Dewault etc break in sort order. I also think it depends on where you buy them too. I’ve had better luck with the Dewault tools I’ve bought from the local construction store than I have with the ones I bought from Lowe’s and Home Depot.
That said, Milwaukee’s are my favorite for heavy duty use. Zero issue with them ever
