The new tools are said to deliver high-end performance, and are made to handle the demands of professional level users.
Craftsman says:
We designed this premium line of tools for those who don’t shy away from a frame-off restoration or face demanding conditions at a work site.
Press materials specifically describe the new Craftsman V-Series offerings as premium tools for automotive and industrial use, and they will likely also appeal to more demanding enthusiasts and DIY users as well.
There are bold claims tied to the new sub-brand:
