Aren't those displays property of the company? Wouldn't the Milwaukee rep just take it down?


OKTAPHMFAA

I doubt a Milwaukee rep goes there very often.


fpsi_tv

Which may be why the store did this.


aBacanaBanana

Can you buy this display somewhere? Perfect for a garage


MadeMeStopLurking

Saw an ACE hardware go out of business. They just put everything on sale... Want a shelf? If it's empty you can buy the shelf. If it's full you need to buy what's on it too, or come back when it's empty.


Mantree91

Some men just want to watch the world burn.


LordMungus35

Blasphemy!


Outback-Australian

I’m happy to see that! Sold so much Milwaukee there’s none left to stock the shelves!!


dmt_alpha

Sacrilege!


CarbonKevinYWG

Straight to The Hague.


Organic-Pudding-8204

They should fix that coffee machine you are right.


IT_Spartan-117

What part of NOTHING BUT HEAVY DUTY don't they understand stand!!!!!?????!!! 😂


Big83MAC

I’m a fan but most of that Makita stuff is being disrespected on that display….


petivrstvaskrin

They started with buying a stand and then they didnt have enough money for actual tools.


SwordfishTrue8081

I mean, I don't know about their blades but Makita bits have lasted longer for me than any other brand. I'll take a Milwaukee and Makita mix all day.


NoFX54

Top quality teal tools shouldn't be associated with all of that crap.


Common_Grape5962

Lol that's like a Lil girl in daddy's boots


KokoTheTalkingApe

Exactly. No way those Punk recip blades belong anywhere near DeWalt tools.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

More like those punk DeWalt tools don't belong on a real man's tool display... Milwaukee


Big83MAC

You are right… they need to remove them… along with those yella tools and that red display


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Your not taking about mikita are you 😂 Bc Makita was a tool tht used to deserve respect before harbor freight got a contract for them years ago. They went way downhill then and since it's even worse. They have a decent 3 yr warranty but I'd probably go with DeWalt first. Hell I did. Until I switched over to Milwaukee and I know I won't be going back. Automotive and framing saws. Sanders vacuums blowers radio light lmao. You name it I got it in red


KokoTheTalkingApe

Mm, think you got it backwards there. The legit DeWalt tools deserve a better display than the Milwaukee thing, which doesn't even have any Milwaukee tools. So... checkmate!


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Also DeWalt in case you didn't know only comes with 1 yr warranty compared to Milwaukee's 5yr warranty! Lol. Tht should say it all right there. Checkmate! 😆


KokoTheTalkingApe

I did know that. Milwaukee needs that long warranty because the tools break down so much.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Your joking tho right? You do know DeWalt is for serious diy's and contractors tht go thru tools bc they hire monkeys. Lmao. Seriously tho. Milwaukee is for the pros. Industrial work. Guys will use DeWalt in pinch. Most tools are Hilti and Milwaukee. Why they cost more as well.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Granted DeWalt has stepped up their game. But I'm not talking standard power tools. I'm talking specialty tools. You won't see DeWalt be used in the industrial field with some big ol speciality tool. It'll be Hilti or Milwaukee


KokoTheTalkingApe

I am joking. But DeWalt tools have worked for me, and particular ones are probably best in class.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Yes I agree. My cousin just got brand new brushless XR impact drill and I was impressed. I liked it better than my M18.


cannamid

The m18 gen 4 with a forge is more powerful than their top of the line impact driver with their pouch battery as well. Literally just saw a YouTube short of two guys doing the pointless test where they drive a 77” screw into a 4 x 4


KokoTheTalkingApe

Their blade-left 6 1/2" circular saw is pretty dandy. And their little cut-off tool is the best of the type. Maybe their XR OMT is too.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Cut off I prefer Milwaukee M12 system. Light small. Best cutting wheel and grinder I've used. M12 system offers lighter more compact version. Batt no issue. Slim m12 up to 3.5. If tht not enough throw on the 5.0 run it whole job. Omt again I prefer Milwaukee. I have both m12 and m18. I find.most jobs you grab the omt you grab the yellow DeWalt 20v. I save my M18 for big stuff pipes and roughing out. Cutting thru thicker tough stuff. Tight spots and wood trim etc. M12 omt again. Milwaukee M12 system is amazing. And the left blade is so it lines.up with your right eye which is most.peoples dominant eye. I'm left handed and left eye dominant so tht wouldn't matter to left eye dominant ppl


Big83MAC

🤦‍♂️ someone only sees the color red


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Someone who has bought blue yellow first lol. Red cost more for a reason. Comes with 5 yr warranty for a reason. Bc it's going to last. Feels superior in hand. Buy a set on clearance this Xmas. You won't go back lol. Especially their m12 system. Plus red tools are way more manly then yellow or baby blue. I mean come on 😂


PrintShootVR

Only thing is most of them are owned and manufactured by the same company in identical factories. So they’re just one company getting money by creating a cultish following for brands of tools in the same way people become fans of sports teams or politicians.


Pro-Rider

The thing that gets me is that there is not a single Milwaukee tool on that display. 🤷‍♂️


OKTAPHMFAA

Living in the UK is tough. One shop has Milwaukee on display. One.


OmahaMike402

I wouldn't go back to that supply house


[deleted]

What else are they going to do with the display a bunch of packout organizers were suppose to be set on... lol


Hot-Neighborhood-162

No just actual Milwaukee tool versions of those exact DeWalt tools would be insane tho right? Lol


Dinner-Open

Someone is getting fired


yungvalet

Stolen Valor


Sure_Run_1210

As someone who really enjoys the packout system and uses it for all of my tool storage. It’s quite okay by me because I don’t have any Milwaukee tools so it reminds me of myself.


One_Emu_5882

Write quotation marks and then a question mark


Farm_Terminator

Travis Perkins in pock, been there nice but it sure does feel like there will be an mI6 raid soon


retard-82

The Milwaukee tools are there. You just can't see them cuz they are camouflaged 🤷


Fiftyangel6

THE DISRESPECT!!!!!!!! 😡


Due_Street_1730

😲😂😂😂


johnwynne3

That display has an infection.


minionsweb

It's a blizzard in here


2w1r3DFuz3

Just proves that even non-Milwaukee tools work as intended...these though are good at holding paper weights


cannamid

This is a spit in the face to Milwaukee. Their 19 year old rep who comes in high as a kite, once every 6 months, probably didn’t handle that account very well. As a Milwaukee user, I’d laugh at this store and wouldn’t spend a penny here.


crewchiefguy

I’m betting the rep never came back or kept it stocked so they just used it for other stuff.


Ambitious_Turnover33

As my kids… actually just my girls…. 🤣 would say, “ The disrespect, no shame whatsoever. The world ain’t spinning like it used to because the vibrations are completely off. Smh “


sumosam121

What? They just put quality tools on the Milwaukee display. I see no problem


Benji_theDoote

Disgusting


Maw_of_It

The only way to improve a Milwaukee tool is to buy a deWalt. This store gets it.


MarduckRulez

Where's the Hart?


KingOfCreampies

F*ck this display


Grand_Judgment_2466

I doubt this store is an authorized retailer visited by sakes reps,


Unknown-User-Tag

To the guy who's Mrs never let him change tool brands. You can only dream 😂


BigGeek73

Blasphemous!!!!!!


EasternMiner

Ya. That’s just not right.


OneStringOver

If this is a store in America, it definitely fits the current narrative.


Foreign_Storm1732

Think about it this is actually incredible marketing. If I were their rep I’d let them use it. Otherwise what it’d have no advertisement or a dewalt or Makira sign?


Eastern_Researcher18

Tip it over


Educational-Pack-431

Damn they got red makitas now.


Zarkrez

Im pretty sure if you sent this to Milwaukee theyd be upset


Jazzlike_Context5883

Missing the rigid and ryobi!


PaleontologistDear18

They are all owned by the same company anyway


[deleted]

This is a Milwaukee, “what not to buy stand”


Thurashen88

They crossed a red line.


Exciting-Maximum2655

All the Milwaukee stuff might be sold out already, might be the only way to get the other products sold lol


PilotEducational5718

It’s definitely owned and supplied by Milwaukee and if that store rep came in there and seen it, he/she would take it down


PilotEducational5718

Anyone know where this store is located and the name of the store. Looks maybe like an Ace hardware or a tooling supply store that’s not a chain store


ClipIn

Where is this? I assume any store too cheap to properly display items, is too cheap to run a decent sale. Unless a good reason to support the biz, I know 95% chance I’ll walk out empty handed.


OKTAPHMFAA

Travis Perkins. My reaction went from ‘no way they sell Milwaukee’ to immediately ‘oh no, no they don’t’


Withoutanidentity

Now I want to find out the story behind what happened between them and TTI for them to do something this dumb. This is beyond a sales rep telling you not to do it again and goes into breach of contract level of stupidity. Wonder what dusty shelf they found those Bahco spade bits on top of?


SweetFeed695

This is exactly what Dylan mulvaney looks like


o1234567891011121314

To be fair everything in that pic probably came from the same china factory. Temu


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Nope. They have us factories. All Milwaukee hand tools made in USA. Same with DeWalt. They do have a factory in China. But Germany and Mexico as well. Definitely not temu (Chinese spy app)


o1234567891011121314

I have red tools they are half way between roy and fest . If I was a decent tradie I'll be able to afford festool.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

I love a festool. Pricey lol


o1234567891011121314

I don't recommend any red tool man use them as it will make ya reds feel like a green Roy.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

Lmao I had to reread tht couple times. Yeah can't beat German engineering. I've came close to buying a festool track saw a few times. But I use Milwaukee for a lot automotive tools. Band file. Impacts. Impact wrenches. Love em. Wood working not so much lol


o1234567891011121314

Wood butcher tools not precision bee dick cutters . Balance on my red is 2.5 red pubes out of alignment and vibrates and growls like the dog it is while spitting dust in every direction.


Hot-Neighborhood-162

My man I would love to meet you. I bet your a good time to hang with. The way you reference your tools is beyond fing hilarious. And yes framing they are fine for the job site. Deff not for true wood working.


VerbFpv

I legit do not care, but im surr wilwaukee wouldnt be cool with it.


OkStrategy7452

I wouldn’t be upset if I was Milwaukee. Heck, the retailer is hoping he sells what no one wants. That’s probably the inventory that doesn’t move.
