I been wondering that too. Its a big disappointment to see this 20v line up went byeee. I have a few of them so I dunno if I should keep/sell them and consider of going in the market for new brand tools...perhaps Milwaukee or Bosch.

Their 20v was really a 18v, same as their 19.2v cl line, which replaced their 20v.
The 19.2 was out before the 20v Pro line. The 20v came and went.

I bought this set on Black Friday a couple years back, and then BAM it was gone. I did manage to buy a couple extra tools on clearance cheap, but really wish I got the impact wrench. Those are going for a lot of money on Ebay.
It's an excellent set, but I am disappointed in Cman for only offering it for a short period of time.

So am I with 20v Impact wrench/Hammer Drill/Impact Driver. They are on a diff level comparing to 19.2 v tools. 19.2 v is so so, only good for basic home owners. Unfortunately the price wasn't right to keep 20v alive.

Just bought that impact wrench off ebay two months ago only for 120 bucks brand new including 1 battery, charger, and a bag. Good steal!

well that goes to show you, that the buyer of craftsman are not looking for pro level but good diy level only. Right in line with Lowes and HD.

Yeah cman downsized the quality from industrial to home owner for whatever reason that is to let this happen.

it is a very simple reason. The client are home owners not industrial or pros. As an industrial power tool user, craftsman are not even on my radar when I place a power tool order.

Well Impact wrench the one I have, 20v is my everyday hand's bestfriend and I use it to make a living to bring food to the table. Its holding up against tiring and brutal work : installing pole to the anchor bolts. I used to own 18v impact wrench in professional line... it was sucking up the abuse pretty damn good and sold it to upgrade for 20v.
