U-Toob Tools Who Owns What Brand?
Talk about a maze of ownership !

I once managed a panel shop building control panels for water treatment equipment.
when a truck was waiting we would literally destroy power tools in an effort to get the machines out the door.
At that time I thought that Milwaukee was the only brand that could stand up to the abuse but one day my neighbor loaned a Ryobi drill, I liked it and bought one and it held up as good if not better than the Milwaukee.
Now I own most of the 18Volt tools they make, I like most of them with the exception of the stapler/brad driver.
They also made a 18volt canister vacuum which is great but discontinued it for some reason, now if you can find it on Ebay it will be outrageously priced.
I have always tried to buy American but since none of this stuff is now made in America it makes no difference.
