Like many others here, it was good for maybe 3 uses. Won't recharge. When I plug it in to charge the light comes on and flashes like a strobe light but won't turn on to use. Very disappointed.

Charging stopped working

Would Not Recommend

Nice headlamp if not used often. Probably used it once a month for almost a year. I plugged it in to charge a couple hours ago to find out it won’t charge.

We love this headlamp

Would Recommend

I've had this headlamp for a couple years and absolutely love that it is rechargeable with the cord attached. We're trying to buy another and they look to be discontinued which makes my husband and I very sad. In reading these reviews I'm wondering if the manufacturer cut some corners and now they aren't good anymore. Craftsman y'all need to up your standards and start selling these again. This is a great headlamp!

Charging wire and battery issues

Would Recommend

Except for the charging wire this is an excellent headlamp. It is the brightest light I could find without a battery pack on the back on the head. If you can get it fully charged, then the light is awesome. Also the strap does not last it stretches out pretty fast. but is adjustable.

Poor performance

Would Not Recommend

I bought this light and loved it. The 2nd time I had to charge it soon as I plugged it in both red lights began to flash. It hasn't stopped flashing and it isn't charging. Now I am wishing I would have paid a little more and bought one with a warranty. I thought by it being a craftsman it would have been a better light.

Headlamp not charging

Bought this for my son. We opened the package to use it. Did not work. Decided it maybe needed a charge and left it to charge for a few hours. Nothing, completely dead. Very poor product and disappointed.

Great Light!

Would Recommend

Owned this product for almost 4 years. Beat my neighbor's expensive Dewalt hands down! Definately brighter! The CHEAPEST and best RECHARGABLE headlamp out there, PERIOD! I've bought five, 2 for me and 3 for gifts. All the gift holders, after 2 years, still rave about the longevity and the brightness on this lamp...and at almost half the cost of any other RECHARGABLE headlamp out there. I'm sorry for the people who happen to get a lemon and are giving this item a poor review. I think Crafts...

Doesn't Last Very Long

Would Not Recommend

Very surprised at life of this lamp. Not sure how long I've had it, but probably less than a couple of years. Don't use it that much, but it just quit after having it on about 10 minutes. Now it won't charge - just dead. Based on my experience, I would not recommend it.

Great Lamp, HORRIBLE head band

Would Recommend

I have three (3) of these lamps, and I love the light they provide. However, the bands on them are horrendous, and all three bands have failed. The rubber that gives them their elasticity is composed of dozens of tiny little rubberband-like "threads" that eventually break (see photos) leaving the band permanently stretched so the lamp won't stay on my head or anyone else's head. I would still recommend the lamp, but be prepared for the headband to fail rather quickly. Otherwise, I'd give the...

2 months old - will no longer charge

Would Not Recommend

As with others, I should have read the reviews before I purchased. I trusted the Craftsman name. Purchased 2 months ago. Fully charged twice. Second charge, my use time was dramatically reduced from the first. Now, attempting to charge for the 3rd time, headset will not charge at all. Will be returned to Lowes

Love this for my job

Would Recommend

I love this head lamp for my job. Only problem is that where the charger attaches to the head lamp, is broken down so now I can’t charge it and would have to replace the whole lamp. What can craftsman do to help?

This is trash

Would Not Recommend

Used this lamp a couple times. Now it won’t charge at all. Absolute waste of money. The craftsman brand has gone way down hill. Sad. Save your money and choose something else.
