Anyone own any Seattle Tools?

[Vulturej]

I was browsing the web and came across this tool company. I was wondering if anyone on GJ knows anything about this company or owns any of their tools.

Never heard of the name, but it striked an interest as I'm really close to Seattle Tool Canada's HQ.

Reading the type of grammatical errors on the .com site makes me automatically think that it's an oriental operation. The picture and accompanying link doesn't even match on certain products. This site is definately a work in progress.


The .ca site is a TON better though; a lot more user-friendly. There's definately more time and effort put into this one.
I looked into their "Partners" link and found it interesting that ProFormance Racing school is sponsored by them--I know friends who have gone to many track days organized by ProFormance.


I chuckled when I saw the "Digital Lock Toolbox"; think of what would happen if the electronics get buggered up.

I also noted that their adjustable wrench are the same as Toptul's--mostlikely sourced from the same factory in Taiwan.

I find it odd that these spanners have no markings on them.

Given my promiximity to this company, people probably think that this might be a free advertisement.....well, I ought to mention that I have absolutely no affiliation with them!

Hmmm, they are in Tukwila, WA. About 50 minutes from me. I will have to drop by and see whats up with them. Take a few pics and get some prices.

They proudly stated their tool production is in Taiwan and China. They claim they make tools for the top brands.

I find it odd that these spanners have no markings on them. em!

Chuck Norris doesn't need any markings on his wrench, yet he selects the right one fist time, every time.

I came across this site sheerly by accident but had to reply...I was googling the canadian seattle tool site and saw this and it caught my curiousity. I just wanted to say that my husband has these tools and loves them....He works on his go cart with them. We thought they were so great that we ordered a socket set for my nephew who graduated high school last year. He works on his car with them and thought it was a very useful gift!
Anyways, for what it's worth just wanted to say they are a great product.

I just saw this CL ad http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/tls/1283698832.html and tried to run down what brand that box really is. And I ended up back here.

The http://www.seattletool.com/ redirects to the Canadian site now. I'd like to go have a look at their stuff before buying any of it.

I drive with Proformance so I'll ask around next time I'm out there.

They have Seattle Tools on display at the Harley-Davidson dealer in Bellevue, WA - NOT impressed. My opinion is they are overpriced and go more for looks instead of performance.
