Because Dewalt gives the the tools free or cheap for free advertising. Have you ever noticed how every car in some shows is a Ford or a Chevy? It's because Ford or Chevy is using the show as an hour long commercial. Same with many shows using Cisco IP phones and Telepresence these days. Lots of shows feature Apple laptops.

Companies provide products or even pay to have their products used in shows. It's good advertising.

What better advertising than having every DIY/Renovation show on H&G using Dewalt.

That said, I understand that some of the $$$ Dewalt stuff is quality. I believe it's the really cheap stuff that you get at the big box stores that's kind of crappy.

I really like Makita and Milwaukee products.
