I'm a guy that makes a living with his hands and tools. I've been at it 45 years so far. In my experience of all the many tools I tried over the years, when it comes to Cordless tools I always use Ryobi. The performance is top notch! They can take abuse and keep on going. I once dropped one off a roof onto a concrete driveway 3 stories down. It broke into 3 pieces with 2 wires connected to each piece. I was out in the middle of Nowhere far from Home Depot. I was minutes away from being done with the job. Nearest Home Depot was 45 minutes away. I used duct tape and pieced it back together. Not only did I finish the job I got 2 1/2 years more use out of it before it just died. So Yeah, I agree with this guy when he says Ryobi is a good tool brand!
Lies again? Tired of living
I've been using Ryobi as well all my tools that I can buy Ryobi I just got done getting their new HP brushless impact hammer drill regular drill and grinder and I have been thoroughly impressed with them. I have the corded laser skill saw that's amazing I have ripped down two by fours and look like perfect trim didn't even have to stay on the cuts with the Diablo blade. And I still have my drills from 11 years ago that I bought from Ryobi when they switched like he talked about I have dropping them off a two-story roofs I've left them out in the rain I even left them underneath a tarp out in the weather in Missouri for a year. I did no maintenance on those drills never added oil never cleaned them and they still work today. The one thing I've noticed about Ryobi versus any other tool is that they're like cats they have nine plus lives. They just keep coming back to life after they die. So even though Ryobi might not outperform tools like Milwaukee and flex they pretty much outperform all the rest and the longevity of the tool is not matched by any other.
@@NazriBif I was you I’d be tired of living as well.
Also, a hidden fact about Ryobi. The reason they still have that “old school” type of battery style. Even though battery technology keeps advancing. They want their battery platform to work on ALL generations of their power tools. Although you can’t stick one of their old Ni-Cad batteries on their newer tools. But, that new Lithium-Ion battery you’ve got will work in your old blue and red Ryobi tools.
Blue and yellow
Y’all should do a “who owns who”/history video of all the brands we know and love. Such as how Stanley Black and Decker own DeWalt, Black and Decker, Stanley, Porter Cable, Craftsman, Irwin, Lenox, and MAC Tools. Along with manufacturing of a lot of the Husky tools.
TTI owns Ryobi, Rigid “Orange”, Milwaukee, Hart, Stiletto Tools, and Empire Tools.
Chevron owns EGO, Kobalt 24v, and Skil.
Bosch owns Bosch, Dremel, Diablo, and Freud.
JPW owns JET and Powermatic.
Emerson owns Rigid “Red” or their hand tools everyone loves.
TTS owns Festool and Sawstop.
KKR own Hikoki, Metabo HPT, and Metabo.
And how HILTI and Makita are the only two major companies that aren’t owned by any subsidiary companies.
Great info, oddball7465 - learned something there. But what I think you meant is that HILTI and Makita are not subsidiaries of any other company.
Why you just did the video right there 👏🏽lololol
afaik TTI does not own the Ridgidbrand. TTI only manufactures some of the Ridgid-branded powertools.
In Europe we have two types of Bosch. Bosch green which are the DIY man's tool and the Bosch blue which are the pro stuff. The blue are top quality, I was surprised when you said that people put them down, shame on them 🤦🏻♂️
I think it's more to do with brand familiarity and exposure. If Bosch had more support in big box stores here I would probably buy Bosch. Their tools are generally fairly good quality.
Bosch doesn’t release like a third of their tools in the north American market, and they choose ridiculously old models to store on the only public shelves that they consign space from at Lowe’s. If you walked into Lowe’s you would think that Bosch doesn’t have any 12V EC brushless tools. NO L-Boxxes, and if you call Bosch customer service and ask for exact fit inlays you get told they don’t stock or sell such things and don’t you dare import tools from Europe. Bosch here in North America primarily tries to sell to businesses and cares very little for customer service.
I’m a Bosch guy in North America, which apparently means I like neglect and abuse...😳
I suppose it's like Milwaukee here in France, very hard to come by so that puts off lots of builders. I use DeWalt but I do have a large hammer drill from Bosch. I suppose I chose DeWalt for the storage system over Makita and Bosch, the tough system boxes are great.
If it's made Germany, yes. If it's made in China, don't know. I've been disappointing with Bosch products and found out that it was made in China. German engineering is useless when the manufacturing gets out-sourced to cheap labor with low standards and poor quality inspections. I don't blame the Chinese people, I blame the big companies that what only to increase their bottom line. We need to make our own stuff here in the US and Canada.
I live in texas..(🇺🇸 usa)....and most People i know love Bosch!!....green ones are really good.....but the blue ones are freaking awesome!!!)
I use several Bosch corded tools. They have held up to major job site demand and abuse. No problems over the course of several years and they have proven to be a bargain compared to other pro brands, especially if on sale. I moved from DeWault to Hitachi (now Metabo HPT) cordless tools about 6 years ago as they were well reviewed, typically less expensive and have a lifetime warranty on the tool body. They are amazing. Have not sent one in for service yet. They are powerful, light and take abuse. I’ve been on several jobs where I’ve heard other tradesmen and even my co-worker (25 years master plumber) refer to them as “homeowner grade”. They changed their minds on that after using them. I think Metabo/Hitachi deserves more respect from the professional community than they receive.
I've always stated that Ryobi is extremely underrated... much much better than people give them credit for...And they have the largest 18 V platform on the market... Great tools at a great price...Can't ask for more
Thanks for the feedback Rich, we appreciate it!
Then best thing about these brands, no one wants to steal them. Talking from experience with bosch lol
You're crazy, The home depot i woerked at didnt even have security for the ryobi tools. Bosch, makita, ridgid, milwaukee, dewalt all had locks and multiple cameras on them.
@@BudMasta I think he means on site not in store
I had my Ryobi drill stolen. Ok, i live in South Africa. They'll steal anything here.
Why is Bosch even on that list?!
Worst 12v tools I ever had.
Ikr! Bosch is one of the most respected tool brands in the entire world! Smh.
Mark Mackie my best 12 Volt tools are from Bosch way better than Makita
because they suck
Because you can’t buy their professional grade tools at the big box stores here in the US. And most people don’t know that, they think they’re buying the best Bosche has to offer but they aren’t. It’s the equivalent of the green Bosche tools in Europe.
Bosch Tools, bridge the gap between (your words) pro and expert. If you open up a Bosch and look at the guts, their quality revivals Hilti and Festool. The problem most have with Bosch is they are not like other bigbox store brands that claim the most power with brushless this and brushless that; instead they just engineer their tools to last day in and day out in the most demanding situations.
This is quite possibly the most backhanded, sarcastic tool review video I have ever seen. I laughed. But honestly, these tools do have a place on the market.
I do roofing for a living and have used ryobi cordless tools for over 5 years and have had no problems or complaints with any of them
Exactly. All these tools are good and probably made in the same factory.
same here their cordless staple gun has been going strong for me for years... along with the drill and impact
Tools are ok. Batteries are garbage
Is Nick the Scotty Kilmer of power tools .. He has the same hand movement 👋🖐👐🦺🦺🔨🧰
Since you said it I can't unsee it
Also sounds like the fat guy from Donut media auto channel
As soon as I saw the hand movement, Scotty came to mind right away lol. I came to the comments to see if anybody mentioned it and your comment is at the top
Oh god now that you've said it...
Now he's going to jump out of a pack out
Wow. Thanks Nick this channel teach me more about good quality tool brand 👍
Once again one of the kind narrator 👏
Cool video Nick
Good job on the presentation.
I just replaced a 30 year old 10" Craftsman miter box saw and a 10" compact table trim saw also about 25 to 30 years old LOL !!!!
They did get looked at like are serious !!!!! Those 2 made a bunch of cash over a long time.
There now keep in a place of honor in my shop 😁.
There replacements are the Hitachi/Metabo HPT 10" table saw and the Hitachi/Metabo HPT 10" dual bevel sliding miter saw.
Bosch is a great company. I agree 100% on that one. I am a hater if Ridgid though. I've been down that road and they were nothing but problems for me. I also have close friends that use Ridgid on a daily basis and all they have to brag about is the warranty and how they got all these years old tools replaced all the time. Meanwhile, the Makita set they've had for 15 years is still used on every job
Im building up from the craftsman line after seeing those tests you all did...looking at the chordless saws and such...great vid brings alot to light...stay safe looking foward to TTR Friday 😎
Hi Guys!!! That's definitely a fair list Nick. And hey, great job on the video to Nick and your team. Camera angles were not boring, editing was right on the mark, sound effects were spot on, and the delivery was just right without going overboard. You must have been channeling Vince! :-)
Thanks Bryan, we appreciate it!
I respect all tools, every brand has something to offer. Keep up the great work VCG Construction.
Here in Denmark, we have a brand called Power Craft. That brand, I have absolutely NO respect for.
When I bought my house, I needed an impact drill and bought a Power Craft as money was running low. The gear box on it broke on first use. Swapped it for a 710W B&D that I still have 15 years later.
In my infinite stupidity, I bought a 2. PC tool when I needed a router. I needed it for a dado in the poles for a fence. One of the handles broke fefore routing 3 feet. My dad had to use his circular saw to get the job finished (I was very green when it came to diy, and had *no* experience with a circular saw at the time).
In general I don't trust any brand with buzzwords like power or super in the brand name...
@@HepauDK , Power Craft is absolute bottom scrape. BUT that is for a reason! These tools are soooo cheap that I could buy 5 of them for 1 decent tool. They are also sold in some dubious "bottom feeder" shops. Do they break? They say so. Weird thing is - never happened to me! I'm no proffessional, but I have used the hell and more out of a cheap Power Craft electrical planer. I also used the hell out of a cheap Ryobi cordless 12V drill (battery finally died after years of usage), a cheap B&D corded drill etc. I bought ridiculously priced Power Craft angle grinder for ONE job. Nothing more. I expected it to break. Nope, did not. Still (ab)using it quite often. Every time I think of the money saved, it brings a smile on my face:) The way I see it - overall quality of electrical tools has jumped up exponentially because technologies that used to be "cutting edge" some time ago are just so cheap to implement and copy. Just think how the bottom end of today was "high end" mere 10 years ago. But yeah, I agree, the feeling of frustration of a tool breaking during a project is 10/10 unpleasant. If I were a contractor, definitely would not like this feeling. It is also funny satisfaction to see a "cheap junk" keep working. And working. And working. It's hilarious really, becomes some kind of a sport: when will this damn thing break? Everybody says it should be dead 10x over. Nope, it keeps going! I have built enormous amount of projects with these cheap tools. Very embarrasing... Should I invest into "serious/manly/pro brand X" as the merketeers keep telling me? Dunno, I keep shrugging my shoulders:)
I've been using Bosch tools (I own a wide selection of Bosch tools) for around 8 years now after making the switch from DeWalt & I have found that I actually like Bosch far more than I ever did DeWalt (& I thought I really liked DeWalt before using Bosch). As an electrician, I see Fluke gets all the love in the trade (as far as testing equipment goes) but I made the switch to FLIR a couple years back & found FLIR to be another underrated (outside of their thermographic tools) tool company alongside AEMC/Chauvin Arnoux. As for standard tools I have come to like the wide selection of tools offered by Milwaukee but that by far isn't an underrated company.
Love my Bosch tools. Have both 18 and 12v systems. Even took the 12v drill and impact on a mission trip to Kentucky where we replaced a floor, joists and all 12v impact worked like a beast running wood screws. I was totally impressed with the performance.
I've been starting to collect Ryobi tools for about 3 years now. Mainly their brushed tools. And they are a great tool a little bit more expensive across the boarder from the US side. But they are great. I have not had a problem yet with them. and use them as a diyer/Apprentice. Besides being that lime green. (Not one of my favorite colors but oh hell what can you do. At least you can spot where they are at any given time with that color. I give them two thumbs up.
@@chesterswingjr9796 the problem with them is that they sell in the States. I'm in Canada over here. Unless they have prices as well in Canadian dollars. I did check them out and they don't go outside of the US.
Awesome video Nick!!! You crack me up! Your passion is amazing! Thank you for all your hard work and direction on this video! Hope you, Vince and the gangs weekend is amazing! Bob
Thanks so much Robert!
Thx Nick ..as always thank you for your input on these videos always appreciated...VCG and gang have saved me quite a bit of money by doing what you do....I'm recently retired so every little bit helps
Rick, living the dream, congratulations my friend and enjoy yourself!
I own a Bosch drill and 1/2" impact driver (blue professional ones). I have beat the HELL out of that drill on the job, and it continues to work as good as the day it was new!! The impact driver has plenty of torque: I used it to remove an automatic transmission from an S10 Chevy Blazer, and it performed flawlessly! I have 2 smaller batteries, 2 chargers and one Fat Pack battery. I will ABSOLUTELY buy Bosch 18V tools again!
Only problem is that their brushed tools are very power hungry.
My 18V shopvac (GAS 18V-10L) eats an Ah in no time, and the power draw is so high that the battery is smoking hot when it runs dry. So hot that the charger won't start charging for at least a couple of minutes, even my active cooled rapid charger (AL 1860 cv).
I did a sanding job not long ago, and my 2 chargers, one of them being the rapid charger, couldn't keep up, so I had to use 5 4Ah batteries to get the job done.
That being said, that thing can suck harder than (insert random "yo mama" joke) until it is completely full! :)
Bosch should not be on this list, bosch is one of the best brand on the market right next to Dewalt, bosch has very durable tools for DYI, PROs and industrial. Ok with Rigid on first place, that brand has very sturdy, durable and quality tools they are underestimated but not undervalued since Rigid is not cheap.
todopoderoso3 see, that’s the thing. Most people, especially people that work in industrial and commercial, hate Bosch. I don’t particularly like Bosch, mainly because they don’t have the durability and longevity to last in rough environments. If you’re a renovation builder or a HVAC technician Bosch is great. But if you’re out bashing houses or working on big supermarkets, Milwaukee or Dewalt is the way to go
@@samdelaney1134 I use mostly dewalt but I have the Bosch SDS and use it daily for years. its gotten wet countless times. I know quite a few people who use Bosch in a commercial line of work and they seem to hold up great. plus isnt Bosch like the top brand sold in Europe? im a dewalt fan boy and just dont want to own 2 battery platforms, but if I had to switch to Bosch I would not feel like I was downgrading at all. bosch is designed to run in wet or dusty environments... just check out concreteworld video. bosch is worth a second look. and their lasers are by far the best I have ever used.
Great job Nick!! In Israel we don't have all the variety of power tools brands that you have but Bosch and Makita are very common in my country. I have few Bosch power tools ( the blue line pro line tools): circular saw, frick- gen 1, drill (18v) Brussels- 183, hammer drill D-20. I'm not a professional but i like to fix things and a weekend woodworker. Those tools are serving me well and I prefer to invest ones on good and reliable tools !!! Keep on doing what you do, keep on shouting you and Vince!!!
I freaking love that green of ryobi
I just copped 2 Ryobi HP Batteries, Charger and grinder for $99 from the Home Depot. Even if the grinder is trash, at least I got 2 batteries!
The grinder was actually the reason why I dropped Ryobi, sad to say. But the rest of their stuff is awesome!
Check out their new one, it rocks
I've been a Bosch convert for the last 18 months or so. Since it's been an underrated brand in North America, I've been able to score great deals on Home Depot and Ebay. The fact that I've been able to score the Freak 2, a Hammer Drill and a reciprocating saw with 3 batteries and charger for less than $400 is just hard to beat.
" Let's Go Baby!!! " Respect given to the brands 👊 ..I've been looking at Kobalt, well see 👀 . Great video guys!
Thanks Demon!!
Yeah, I just picked up their XTR impact driver this week and it's working great!
Love the passion bro 👊😎
I have Ridgid, Ryobi, and Hitachi/Metabo and DeWalt tools and my partner had several Makita and Bosch tools, as well. Honestly, the DeWalt tools always let us down. As General Contractors, we worked them all hard but it seemed that DeWalt tools were giving out while the others continued to run.
I've got a 12 or 13 year old Ridgid Hammer Drill and an Impact Driver that run as well today as the day we bought them. We actually bought them as cheap replacements for "when" the DeWalts would crap out on us again.
The Hitachi/Metabo is a framing nail gun that is excellent. Durable, no jams, good battery. No complaints.
Ryobi made their way onto my truck for some punch list stuff and for the wife and kids to use. The belt and 1/4 sheet sanders are okay, though they seem to be underpowered with 2.0Ah batteries. The Oscillating multi-tool is one of my favorite tools; ergonomics are great. And the Ryobi Airstrike Angled Finish Nailer is AWESOME...Love not having to run air hoses through a room on remodeling jobs as it helps avoid issues with pulling the hoses around cornerbead or trimmed out walls and doorways.
I am looking to trade out the tools I have and go with just one line for batteries. I really like the Flex Tools at Lowe's but they are pretty expensive for a short track record in US. I do like that Flex is offering lifetime warranty for those who buy tools by the end of the year. That puts them on par with Ridgid for me. Right now, Ridgid is having great deals at Home Depot...With two of their combo kits, I can get 7 useful tools, 3 4.0 Ah and 1 2.0 Ah batteries for right about $600. For 7 tools and 4 batteries, that works out to about $55 per unit. Just a great deal. If Lowe's were to match, tool for tool and battery for battery, I would probably go with the Flex line to try something new but, otherwise, I think Ridgid over Ryobi in terms of the brands I have, especially given the track record with me and lifetime warranty.
Good video, Nick. Thank you!
Don't know who you are, but you are just as entertaining as Vince!!! Thumbs up from me!!!
I bought two Ryobi drills in 1999, and they still work.
Had the Hercules drill, Non hammer drill. Loved that thing and the impact. The impact is one of the best I’ve used. The drill on the other hand was junk in under a year. The Jacobs chuck is shot on it now. It will not grip a bit well and either loosen up during use or rip ridges into the shank of the bit. Since then I have now moved to a Milwaukee brushless set and not looking back
Probably going to get a ton of laughs from this 😜👍.. all good though. I would love to see Craftsman's 20v tools. I picked up the impact and drill when they first showed up for $100 kit only to try out, accumulated a few extra batteries in the last couple years.. the 4ah batteries are awesome. I just saw they have a 6ah.. not sure about the cells. Anyway, definitely not as good or fast as other tools, but they do get it done. Recently picked up the multi tool, grinder (looks exactly like a Porter Cable) and the 6&1/2 circular saw (performs like the old cordless DeWalt on the ni cad batteries).. the price is awesome for them. Lots of ups and downs, but for the most part, these tools work great. Very few complaints as long as you have the right batteries to complete your work everyday.. been doing this for over 22 years.. NEVER did I think Craftsman work impress me
It impressed us, we like the new brushless craftsman
I’m just starting out in wood working, and I love the videos here. I wanted to know if the 7 1/4 corded cobalt is still good compared to the cordless. There’s quite a big price difference
Regardless of the brand you pick, I'd stay away from 7 1/4" miter saws. 10" is the sweet spot. With that, I'm extremely happy with my Ridgid 10".
Personal experience, my co-worker has a lot of Ryobi and we do roof repair. They work just fine. Cordless saw, nailer and blower. No issues 😊
However we both have a similar set of makita impact and drill drivers that we love as well. Go figure.
Nice job Nick I even have some ryobi Homeowner stuff and I've been a contractor for 40 years. Milwaukee, Bosch, Hilti Dewalt, Porter Cable, I have it all. You name it I've got it. They all serve their purpose. Great video appreciate it my brother
Thanks so much for working with Ryobi!
Have 4 of the non xtr Kobalt brushless tools and really like them. Also have the Rigid 18ga brad nailer, it works great and no jams yet. Next purchase on the list is a Rigid shop vac! Thanks for the videos.
I liked this video a lot and stuff about these tool brands I didn't know of - great job!!!!
I’m a fan of Kobalt tools. I especially like their hand tools. I also think Big Orange has some amazing vacs and air movers. I’ll definitely continue to buy them.
I got into the Ryobi line in January, been impressed so far.
Ridgid octane hammer drill is my daily user had the Milwaukee gen 3 and Makita and it seems more powerful with the auger bits I use them for
Shout out to Chaka! Ryobi did have to change from their original Blue and Yellow
Why did they have to change?
I like green and blue ryobi don't change
@@seasgarage I think it's just to make it easier to find. I don't like the color personally. But when you see like reds for stopping at a stop sign or yellows for attention to something. I finger that the lime green is just easier to notice where you have a tool. Like like warning signs for the road or what they put on products to stand out from the rest.
Thank you for doing this! Interesting to see if you all ever took test or even just take a look at the Ryobi cordless nailers...
Tool, not took...
I have a Ryobi 4-stroke weed eater manufactured in the 90s that still works. Aside from routine maintenance, I have had to rebuild the carburetor once and replace the fuel lines a couple times. Not bad for 20+ years of service!
Love my Kobalt XTR hammer drill/ drill / driver with the inertia kill switch. It's powerful fairly fast , and that kill switch is an incredible safety feature.
Very nice video ,, continue doing them.
I have a 1998 ridgid leaf blower/wet dry vac that's been sucking up concrete and drywall dust for 20 years and it still works great!
Great video giving us the fans their own brand glory minute. All of them does great job they have already grownup
Awesome video!!
@VCG Construction how about putting the Hercules 6 1/2 circular saw vs Makita 6 1/2 circular saw
I have a Bosch jig saw I bought in 1983....still kicking as....
Have Bosch set (drill and impact) have had it for almost 3years. Works great
Ive got Milwaukee tools, but my Ridgid tools have never failed to impress. Ridgid 18v lights are some of the best as well!
I swear by bosch, everything I have is bosch! Bosch is where I go for everything!
I don't give a bosch
Bosch makes great windshield wipers. The best I have used in years.
Picked up a Ridgid 18v brushless 7 1/4" circular saw with battery and charger for $179, everything guaranteed for life along with free replacement batteries. Saw cuts like a boss, so solid.
I wonder if one day the sounds of different tools can be musically arranged and presented, with conductor Nick on the helm..
Great review and summary of these tool companies.
Thank you for the awesome feedback Lisa!
I have 2 favorite tool company ridgid and milwaukee I got the ridgid hammer drill brushless and i got the Milwaukee sawzall
I like the Bosch wood router..they also have a decent mitre saw.
Love it! One of the best vids on here. 4 Real.
I'm a professional mechanic and I'll tell you what, Ryobi has been a great cost effective option for me and It kicks some serious butt. Plus they can really take some punishment. I've dropped them, used them as a hammer and hand just been cruel to them and they just keep running. Now I'll admit they aren't quite as fast as a Milwaukee so sometimes I just have to hold down the trigger a little longer but I see it as it does 80% for 20% the price.
just grabbed the hercules miter. Comparing it side by side with the a dewalt (old dw718, but still works great) It really is a great saw. Cuts accurately, has the same features as the dws780, comes with a decent blade and for $325. It's a great deal
Sparky here from Cali and I use bosch. Never seen another rocking bosch at any jobsite in my 12 years in the trade. May not have the speed of red and yellow but the few seconds difference don't really matter when time can be saved many other ways (work smarter?). They're durable, reliable and smooth hell. I still use my brushed set with the original batteries and would probably use them well into retirement
i love my kobalt tools but it feels bad when someone comes up to me and puts them down. without even trying them. but then relizes my tools outperform everyone
Part of the reason i started a new kobalt group on Facebook
Just use what you like brother. Dont let people bother you, if they talk down about your tools. All my stuff is makita and i get some crap for it on the jobsite sometimes, but to me they are the best tools made and nobody will change my mind.
@@Da9guy1993 thanks bro. im gana keep on using kobalt nomatter what. like i said though. the ones who hate ask to borrow the tools later once they see my tools outperform.
It's a perception thing... .when I compare the Kobalt to Ridgid, Milwak, Dewalt, Craftsman and damn near anybody else, while the Kobalts, for the most part, can keep up with the best of them, performance-wise, they just don't keep up with the whole "masculine" thing... Let;s face it... They just look kinda' gay... But, hey!... My wife likes them which does make it easier to "justify" the money spent :-).
@@srqtad ur not wrong. i love the blue . but it doesnt look as tough as red tools and yellow. but all in all if they keep up and outperform my investment was good. im happy with what they can do and i use them for profesional jobs.
Love the passion.
Lol
Ryobi had a finish nailer on sale Black Friday week for 88$ w/2 pk of batteries for another 88$. Been great on the jobsite
Jeremy Broshear my brother in law is an interior carpenter and uses this gun on a daily basis. He is absolutely in love with it
Very good video 👍🏻
Vince put on a beanie and grew a big beard. I love this so much,
This is GREAT!!!! I love it!! THANK YOU !!!! Keep speaking the truth !!!!
Wow I never thought I would see Nick do this video!
I like that nice video good Job
I agree these companies make amazing tools
I agree. My first choice is always Craftsman. I know many won’t agree but it has always treated me well. I even had a 19.2v set that came with a lot of pieces in a blow molded case that survived a deployment to Iraq nearly 12 years ago and is still kicking ass today with the exception of the nicad batteries I killed those but about 6 yrs ago I replaced my batteries with the lithium ions and several xcp and they still run like new and now I’ve finally had to replace a couple tools due to not being able to get replacement parts and the new v20 and v60 I’ve replaced them with are amazing in my opinion. My second is ryobi for things that are odd that I may only need once in awhile
Good video Nick
I'm trying to decide between the ryobi and kobalt power tools. Which would you choose between the two?
Kobalt
Cool Video nick
ok, this was not what i expected initially from title and it was awesome. All brands have specialties and advantages and the more i've learned (& trued), the less hater-ade i've been drinking. All of these brands have a purpose and have certain tools that are great and are unappreciated in certain ways, especially for some of the prices.
Ive had a Ridgid Wet/dry vac for over ten years. It really sucks... which in the case of a vaccuum is a good thing. Jokes aside, its a very good vac.
Awesome 👌 Mr entertainer
Great video👍💯👊
Thank you very much!
One of the best little tools I ever bought was for $10 from Klein it's a special magnatizing tool. It has a magnet and some holes built in it and you can run a screw driver or a bit or whatever you can fit thru one of the magnatizing holes and it will make it magnetic so it gives you the power to make any bit or screwdriver in your arsenal magnetic and it you want it regular again you just run it thru a different hole and it'll demagnetize it! Definitely worth the $10 I paid for it, sweet little tool!
Great video, Nick........okay? LOL Thanks and God bless!
Love you Nick. You the man. Totally CRAE CRAE!!
Thank you Martin!! Crae all day!!!
I bought a Rigid 1/4 sheet sander once and its clamp failed in the first hour I used it. Also bough a Ryobi belt sander once, it burned up the first day I had it. I do have a Ryobi Miter saw that is still running good after 13 years. But I just stick to DeWalt and Makita now.
I setup and breakdown mobile homes for a living. That Ryobi 3 speed impact driver is a beast. With a socket adapter it drops axels and tires, puts them on, deals with hitches, and does everything I need screw-wise. It's been going strong for almost a year...dragged through the mud, dropped off ladders and even a roof here and there. The guys at work call it "the beast" and it usually means not cranking the generator and pulling out the Milwaukee impact. I bring my Ryobi tools to a construction site and abuse the hell out of them. For the money I paid and the value...I can't complain. The roof I cut today didn't skip a beat with the saw-zall, and forget about the ceramic tile with the circular saw...
I think it is odd that you mention Ridgid in this list. I have several of their tools, and I just love them. Recently purchased their brushless circular saw and that this is beast of power that cuts beautifully clean. Also picked up their Contractor table saw recently. They must have some confidence in their tools with their lifetime service agreement. So far I have not had to use it on any of my Ridgid tools...next stop the Ridgid palm router.
Unfortunately when I was a kid, Black and Decker and Craftsman were the tools to own. That is no longer the case.
You will love it! Fast, strong, compact, light weight, infinite speed adj from 17 -30K... I get PLENTY of run time out of the 3ah octane batts (I 3/8 rounded 150 bdft of still-wet PT 2x banisters/rails on my upstairs deck, in two passes, on one batt and still had 2 bars), the fence is well machined, dust/chip control is good, LED light is positioned well... The fine depth adjust is a bit tricky to get used to but once you dial yourself in to how it works, it's great... One more thing... The way Ridgid set up the on/off switch seems a bit awkward, again, at first... BUT there is practically NO way to turn it on accidentally.
@@srqtad Yeah, I have seen demos here on UA-cam and it looks really nice. I have the Bosch and Dewalt trim routers, but you can never have too many, and both of those are corded models.
This much I can say... walking up and down that flight of stairs, rounding 25' long banisters, for two passes each edge (8 trips up/down) without having to deal with a freakin' cord was almost fun.... The router would have done it in one pass each eadge but it was still fresh PT and had some knots so I took it a little easy.... Same for the deck railings so, really, it was 300 bdft. just not at full load.
In some ways Ridgid is two companies. The power tools are TTi's AEG power tools rebranded and they licensed Ridgid's name for North America. As a DIYer I like them as a step up from Ryobi (which is also TTi licensing the brand name) which is a great entry level brand.
Fun facts for Black and Decker. As you say they use to be good but at one point they started to get a bad reputation as a non-professional level tool so they re-purposed the Dewalt brand (which they owned) as their new professional level tool brand while B&D is for the regular consumers. Craftsman use to be a great hand tool brand until hey start to cheap out on them and Sears started to go under... they are now also owned by B&D.
I have that sane ridgid air mover its amazing
I drove in some T25's in my deck bc the winter expansion made them pop out a little. I prob drove 30 screws. I ruined 3 hercules bits doing so. I was even using the screw function on the impact.
2:28 that drywall patch kit is super nifty
We all know Chaka secretly has a garage full of Ryobi 🤔
🤣🤣
😂😂😂
It's blue Ryobi
I have a 12 volt Porter - Cable cordless drill that I just love. I bought it back in September 2016 up here in Toronto Canada, when Lowe's decided to discontinue Porter - Cable's 12 volt cordless tools. I bought a two tool set, the drill (which is what I wanted) and a 12 volt impact driver. The whole deal was $ 100 ! I have never seen as h good a deal since. I sold the impact driver and now wish that I had kept it. What do you folks out thee think of Porter - Cable power tools ?
I run ridgid power tools and dont regret switching from dewalt! I use them as a pro and they hang in with my Milwaukee. And I dont get laughed at. Ryobi has come a long way since there blue and red day now they try harder than your hand
