Just bought this today. On clearance sale at HD normally $400 and I got it for $190. They only had 5 left. Got the one with the kit that included 1 battery and charger.
Haha sounds like a lot of people are getting it on clearance at HD, I also got mine at home depot in clearance for the same price but it was the last one, I couldn't pass up the deal but sounds like it wasn't that special in the end
@@TouchofDepth at 200 , no matter what you got a good deal, even if you only used it a few times per year. You got yourself a solid miter that you may never need to ever purchase again . If you take a look around starts at 400 and corded at that. I paid full price and it’s been one of my favorite tools.
I want one. I have a bench mounted 12" miter saw that will do any heavy work that needs to be done, also a 10" slider that on a portable stand for outdoor projects. I like the idea of not being tied to a cord.
The reason you couldn’t get through the 2” MDF at 45* at the end of the stroke, is because the clamp post was in the way. Don’t ask. Thank you for the excellent and comprehensive review.
That's the reason I didn't upgrade from their last one. It was dual bevel and 36v. I can get 2 days trimming a house with it and easy get a day cutting conventional out of 2 4ah batteries.
I'm so fortunate I got the dual bevel one that takes 2 batteries and is still brushless and and with a perfect 90 degree cut. Got it for $249 and couldn't be happier
@briankeithespiritu3173 as soon as I saw this comment, I wanted to know what model too. I've been searching everywhere for an 18v dual bevel but could only find a single bevel.
Extremely detailed. Thanks. Too many videos critical about Ryobi not being good enough. You specify it's for a diy'er so there's no comparing it to such and such pro model. Bells and whistles I don't need. It gets the job done and true. Problem solved. #bestbangforthebuck
really appreciate the review and walk through. I'm just starting out and scored this one for $150 with a battery and charger. so i'm excited to start working with it! :)
I was a little worried about installing the blade after reading a couple of reviews. But it was amazingly easy. Took about 1 minute. Works great ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxjpBI8OOeUXib_iT7UomCrQ-uauwZJ62c . Cuts easily and is perfect for pocket cuts I needed to make for replacing some old deck boards.
Thanks for the review, very informative, and helped me see how to set it up and use it. I would also be interested to see how you would clamp the saw to the table, and best way to store it if not used on daily basis. I realize these are general question not tool specific. but I have no experience in using these tools.
The base has holes in it so you can screw or bolt it to a table or bench....I think that's the same with pretty much every miter saw on the market. I have a different brand corded miter saw that I like to keep mobile, and all I did was use a Black and Decker Work Mate and its included Bench Dogs and just clamped the base of the saw in the Work Mate, for temporary small quick jobs it works just fine....if I were doing a lot of miter saw work, I'd definitely invest in a miter saw stand.
4:27 shows you taking the battery out and raising the blade guard. When you manually rotate the blade by hand it makes a clicking noise. Is this the electric brake making this noise …because I just purchased one of these saws and noticed it sounded the same. I have an old Ryobi miter saw that doesn’t make this noise when you rotate it.
@@For891 I went to my local Home Depot store to see if the saw in question made the same noise as mine did. They had one on display that made this noise so I’m assuming it has something to do with the brake mechanism. I’ve used mine and so far no issues.
Just got this. Amazing for the price, the motor actually has quite a bit of torque. But boy the rails are below grade. They have a lot of play, lower tollerence, not so smooth and binds up under pressure. The electronic braking is a ESC programming issue. It has an delay of around a second. May be that's intentional. But those rails are deal breaker. Hopefully Ryobi revises those parts.
Think of the advantage of cordless: set up out in your yard for a fence build or a deer blind build, no need for long extension cord(s), use in a power outage, storm damage, etc. Corded have more power in most cases but are limited in use to these types of scenarios.
Its nice in the fact you don't have to drag out an extension cord when you want to use it, but cordless tools typically have less power, and you have to have a few batteries charged and ready to go if you have a larger project you are working on, which isn't much of an issue since most tool brands offer "starter kits" where you get a charger and battery, then you can buy extra batteries, which again a lot of manufacturers offer multi-battery packs so you can pickup a couple batteries for spares....or buy a couple tools in kits and get multiple chargers and batteries that way as well. I use a lot of cordless tools now just for convenience of not having to run a cord to the tool, or in some cases you don't have to unplug one tool to use another. I had a Dewalt 7-1/4" miter saw that was a 20V model for a while, and I hardly used it at home. I finally took it to work and use it quite a bit there since there aren't any electrical outlets in the warehouse where they should be, the cordless tools are great for that scenario....if there were outlets around the warehouse I'd stick with corded tools. In my shop I use corded tools a lot, elsewhere on the property I use cordless so I don't have to mess with extension cords....plus the further you are away from an outlet the more power loss you get with an extension cord, so your tool isn't getting the amperage that it should, and will shorten the motor life over time....sticking close to an outlet is highly recommended with corded tools...where with cordless you don't need to worry about it, just have to have enough batteries with you to get the job done.
shame they discontinued their last 10in saw that used 2 batteries and was also brushless. you could also tilt both ways. the brake was much better and has a blade Lazor
@@jonatancassagnol4285 from what I heard, someone sued them because with two batteries connected it was considered 36v and not 18v that they advertised it as.
@@Nothin2see_ Interesting, because Milwaukee has a bunch of 36v tools out now that they just call "M18," and don't list the voltage on their own website, but all their vendors list them as "36v"
Thanks for the video. Interesting thing happened today when my new PBLMS01K arrived for unboxing and set up.. I noticed the blade was clicking when I manual spun the saw blade. Is that normal or should it be friction free ? Called Ryobi to clarify - afraid to initially test power to the blade before knowing. Ryobi tech support said not normal and to return it - and I did. Watching this video at 4:20 ....I see when manually turning the blade the clicking is normal....lol. Waiting for my NEW saw from HomeDepot. NOW I KNOW - thanks again.
Does the LED light switch stay in the on position? Mine springs back to off (but the light stays on for bit then goes out). Just want to make sure mine isn't defective.
Don't know if you got your answer but yours is working correctly. It's that way to prevent you accidentally leaving the light on and draining the battery.
ONE+ HP 18V Brushless Cordless 10 in. Sliding Compound Miter Saw Kit is on sale for $219 original price is $399. would this be a good deal and a saw for a DIY. I plan on finishing my basement.
When I explain things like this the Ryobi fanboys always have a hissy fit. The reason is because Ryobi looks at every component of a tool and tries to find a way to cut costs. If they can save one penny during manufacturing, they will do it.
Don’t know if it’s true but I heard they are the parent company of MILWAUKEE, so they can’t put too much quality in Ryobi without hurting their own brand.
Wondering why you'd go through all that w/o having the saw secured to the bench, I'm sure you have your reasons, damned if I know what they'd be though...
One reason I can think of is, it's a portable saw that's battery operated. We all are guilty of not taking the time to mount it down or at least throw a few clamps on it. Especially if we have only a few cuts, like he did. So now we get to see the hassles associated with not spending that 5 minutes to secure it.
@@rickyhall1772 Interesting take, actually performing how not to do it! ; ) You did see that bind & kick on the angle cut, right? There's a lot of impressionable minds out there and I would hope in the future he only errs on the side of safety & caution...
Then why not show the difference between the 4amp battery and the 9 amp because, to us on the other end of the screen that saw was struggling ! I am not a Ryobi guy I do have any Ryobi tools so I don’t pay that close attention to Ryobi product line, so forgive me if I didn’t know they had a 9 amp battery!!!
Just walked into HD today to return and purchase the correct items and saw this saw on a stack out for “WHAT”$200. No I’m almost finished my project and getting by with a 71/4” circular saw and not getting perfect 90 degrees cuts so having to do it again( yes, running the saw against a square) but on 2X4 sometimes at the end it’s hard to hold saw true to the wood. But went home emptied trunk and purchased this sucka. I got me self a deal. Which it was about 2weeks ago but now have made my next job future proof.
I'd pass. Too many things wrong with it. Especially the blade not stopping near fast enough. No detent stops on the tilt. The non working depth stop. Takes a while to ramp up in speed. Certain things made out of plastic. When being used in this video, while pushing the blade through the material, I'm guessing it's not very smooth/easy. Looks like he's pushing hard and he pushing the whole unit around before it starts cutting/sliding on the rails. Great review though. Pretty thorough.

Hmm....so you've done the same thing I have with that stupid clamp post....yeah I don't have that thing on the saw anymore, I never use it anyhow.
It was actually the blade guard catching the wood.

Surprised Ryobi didn't make it 40v. At the very least it should have been sold with the highest AH one+ battery!

What is that little spring screw at the end of the locking pivot handle? If you're watching the video it's a little screw aiming towards the plywood.
Should have secured the saw to the table top prior to cutting.

Definitely can, any miter saw can, just gotta buy the right size blade for the saw of course.
Video was very informative. Thank you!!!
You adjusted right side fence when your board wasn’t even touching it

Its a 1 piece fence, so adjusting the right size moves the left size of the fence as well.
