St Louis pneumatic air tools?

Has anyone had any experience with St Louis pneumatic air tools? I went to get a cutoff yesterday for some exhaust work & they had 3 grades, 1 Chicago pneumatic for 111.00 2. St Louis pneumatic for 58.00 and 3. Campbell Hausfield for 32.00. Since the cutoff isn't going to be a tool I use all the time I got the St Louis but am wondering how their other tools work. This seems to be a good tool & says "made in USA" on the box where the other 2 were made overseas. Any ideas?

Chicago Pneumatic (if it is still made in the US) not to be confused with the Harbor Freight Central Pneumatic brand is the brand to buy IMO if you want it to last a lifetime. My guess is that St Louis Pneumatic (never heard of them) and Campbell Hausfeld are both Chinese imports.
