I know these are good but how hard is it to get them replaced?

Power tools corded/cordless: DeWalt and Hitachi
Hand tools: Craftman (have to look to find older stock still USA made),Channel Lock, Kobalt, Stanley...pretty much what you'll find at most stores.
Air compressor: Ingersoll-Rand Garage Mate if you want portability and use standard 120V outlets. If you want a 230V stationary shop compressor then go with their 60 gal unit. Both are belt driven which seriously cuts down on noise.

Unless you work in a shop full time there is no reason to spend the money on snap on. Craftsman, kobalt and husky will all do you just fine.
