Well, here's to hoping (as a swig of Jack goes down) that they don't tinker with the manufacturing of the brands for marketing sake.

From an investor's (in BDK) viewpoint, its a good deal. I don't own it, but I am getting ready to bite.

Interesting, I think B&D got ultra rich by mass junk marketing, like VW did and now owns Rolls Royce (not that VW is "junk"). I only wonder what and where the Pentair operations are in "Europe".
