I can't agree with you. it also would have helped if you had listed the model number/s you had problems with.
I've owned a lot of Black & Decker and they've all worked admirably, my 12V Black&Decker Firestorm drill lasted far longer than the 18V Craftsman drills I used. My Firestorm lasted for 7 years, as opposed to the 2 years each on the 18V Craftsman (I had THREE craftsmans drills, all died within two years.)
Sometimes you get a good one, sometimes you get a bad one, few manufacturers are perfect...it also depends on how well you maintain your equipment as to how long it will last...
