They just popped up on some google searches for tools, and their prices seem incredibly good:

Almost too good to be true, in fact. I've found a few reviews which suggest they're legit, but that's hardly definitive. Anyone had direct experience with them?

If you can maim/kill yourself with the tool, buy something that costs more but is better built.

Don't believe 'em.

Once a tool always a tool.

Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear: they have the same tools as other people, but at lower prices. In general, I completely agree with you. I always prefer proper tools anyway, but sometimes it's not worth it.

In this case I was looking at an impact driver, which isn't something I'm going to use often, so there's no real point spending much on one. The same ubiquitous cheapo one that everyone else sells for ten quid, Xtools have for a fiver.
