Worth getting a battery adapter and using instead of spending more than double on the Makita. Nice form factor and easily handled the light work we needed it for.

Just what I've been looking for. Do my own brakes and family's cars but don't want to hook up the bug air compressor for the die grinder. This work great for that. Sure it's a little bigger but no problem and nice to have one for this price.

I have several Ryobi cordless tools that use the ONE+ battery system so I'm already invested in the battery. I needed a good cordless sander and this one fit the bill perfectly.This is a good quality brushless rotary sander. It has 4 speeds depending on how far you pull the trigger. It has plenty of power and I get a lot of running time with even the smaller amp hour rated batteries. It has an integrated spindle lock so you only need a single wrench to change tools.I'm real happy with this tool.

Much more quiet than my old Mac right angle die grinder and has way more power too. It also has a hell of a lot more power than the Milwaukee 12v unit . I got for using in the field for marine diesel engine repair/rebuilds. I think its a well built unit. I was honestly surprised at it's quality. I bought an adapter to use the 20v dewalt batteries in. The adapter sucked so I bought aftermarket ryobi style and that worked perfectly. I think its better than pretty much anything on the market including snap on, Mac, and Milwaukee. It's high quality honestly. Probably the best ryobi cordless tool I've ever seen- most ryobi seems like crap to me- not this though. It's well worth the price especially for field work.

Purchased this die grinder, was super excited to get the tool. I have many ryobi hp power tools and they have all performed above expectations. So no I am not a dewalt or Milwaukee fan boy that snubs ryobi. So now that is cleared up, I received the tool yesterday and opened it out of the box. The tool looked great. Had a nice feel to it. I popped in a battery just to make sure it worked. I ran through all the power modes and it worked just fine. So now I go to install one of the 1/4” bits I purchased for it and it is NOT EVEN CLOSE to fitting down into the collet. I tried multiple bits to see if that one was manufactured wrong but no, it was the grinder that was defective.I’m writing this and going to speak with who I can to try and get it resolved, because I honestly am a fan on ryobi’s hp line. So we shall see what happens. I guess depending how this goes, maybe I will become a dewalt or Milwaukee fan boy..

It's a genuine RYOBI Right Angle Die Grinder, it got here super fast and I paid a great price for it. I already have the batteries for it so it worked out great. Product checks out, 4 speeds, the light, the chuck; all work fine.

Things a beast. I’ve used an old IR on my big compressor for years and this thing even just with old 4ah batteries is way smoother and feels noticeably stronger too. Gonna try and catch some 4ah HP batteries for a good deal and see how they do too although even with the non HP batteries it’s been awesome. Great deal too.

The size and type of die grinder is nor offered by almost any other power tool maker. At least not at this performance level. This one beats the Milwaukee M12 angle grinder in performance and power. Some reviews complain about the chuck not releasing the attached shank. THIS IS BY DESIGN because it is a safety chuck which must be loosened TWICE before the shank can be removed. RTFM!!
