Titles says it all. Lowes sells this 6 pc set for $170 regular everyday low price and there is a $40 mail in gift card rebate here.

It comes with a trim saw, drill, reciprocating saw, 2 batteries, radio charger, stud finder, and flashlight all tucked inside a decent sized plastic case.

I used a 10% off coupon and got it for $152+tax out the door with $40 on the way. Seems like an excellent deal for these tools. Obviously they are not professional grade but they are the high line home models. I have a battery charging right now, I can't wait to try out them out. I read somewhere that they were bought out by DeWalt so I'm hoping they perform as well, or at least almost as well.

Black and Decker actually acquired DeWalt. Black and Decker tools aren't bad for their price. The main difference between DeWalt tools and B&D is DW is designed for heavier usage. But for normal household purposes, this B&D set is a pretty good deal.

I've had this set for almost a year now (Well, mine came with a different charger and without the stud sensor) and use it daily on a professional basis. It's held up great and I've had a few co-workers with their Dewalts eyeing it.... I really love the pop-off chuck, it's really handy if you do a lot of drilling/screwing operations. Got mine for $149 at the time plus a $40 gift card...
