    So Ryobi is just fine. With the context you provide if you’re a heavier user who needs the features then you can spend more? If you need a quality tool that will get the job done without frills then Ryobi is great?

      Yes

      Ryobi is fine

      Other tools are better

      Internet likes to put down Ryobi but it’s not as bad as they make it out to be.

      My first power drill was Ryobi like 10+ years ago and still works to this day. I prefer using my Dewalt drill, it’s less clunky.

      No one wants to be a “Ryobi Guy”. Especially behind a screen where you can say you have any tool you want.

      Bosch makes my favorite hammer drill. My Makita sander works like a champ. I enjoy my Milwaukee packout toolbox.

      People get stuck on brands. And while with tools there are differences, Ryobi works just fine.

      I did burn out my Ryobi oscillating saw. But that’s the only Ryobi tool that has failed me and I have like a dozen of them. I really like my ryobi finish nailer.

        I love my Ryobi finish nailer! The only Bosch I currently have is an inherited corded jigsaw but it has held up well.
