Drill – Drill has a plastic 1/2″ chuck. It features a MagTray magnetic surface for holding screws and bits while you are working. It has an LED light to keep the work area lit when you pull the trigger. It is fairly small and powerful. The plastic chuck may be the weak point, but is working great for now.

Impact Driver – Driver has a Tri-Beam LED to light surface while you are working. It also features a MagTray magnetic holding surface for holding screws and bits while you are working. It has an auto load chuck for easy bit loading and ejecting. Lots of power for driving screws.

Reciprocating Saw – Saw has an anti-vibration handle to reduce fatigue. Pivoting shoe is adjustable to allow more control and to save blades. Works as good as my Milwaukee corded reciprocating saw.

Circular Saw – It uses a 5-1/2″ blade. This provides enough to cut a 2″ x 4″ board. Has an ExactLine laser which turns on automatically when you pull the trigger. A better thin-kerf blade helps the tool do a better job cutting.

JobPlus base with multi-tool attachment – Features replaceable blades for cutting, sanding and scraping. There are different heads for 90 degree drill, body saw, autohammer, etc. It accepts Ryobi, Ridgid and Dremel heads.

Flashlight – Features a swivel head that can be directed where needed. An LED lightbulb would have been a nice improvement to save on the battery life.

2 P107 Compact Lithium Batteries – Has 15% more power than Ni-Cd batteries. There is a fuel gauge on the back of each battery letting you know how much power is left at the push of a button.

P117 dual chemistry charger – Features IntelliPort Technology, which protect battery cells to maximize battery life and conserves energy.

I like using the drill and driver together when working. It is convenient to be able to keep one tool set up to drill holes and the impact set up to drive screws without switching out bits. I did purchase two 4.0amp/hr batteries and use them when working with the saws or driver. The smaller batteries seem to work equally as well. However, the smaller batteries will not last as long. Li-on batteries die suddenly during use unlike Ni-Cd which slows the tool down near the end of the battery life, but there is a fuel gauge so you should be aware of battery life.

Final Impression: I have enjoyed the set; it is a great step up from the cordless tools with Ni-Cd batteries that I was using. Just about everything that I needed was included, except a jigsaw. I have added other items to this set including: jig saw, 6 port battery charger, two 4.0 amp/hr batteries, and an 18 volt yard blower. I have used all of the tools extensively except the JobPlus base with multi-tool attachment. It seems to be a nice addition but I have not really tested it except trying it out in the shop. There have been times when it would have been an awesome tool to have. When I put new flooring in my house, it would have been great for cutting the trim. This was my first set of Ryobi tools. While I don’t think they are quite at the same level as Milwaukee and Makita, they are not far behind. They are definitely the best value. For the tool snobs out there, this set is probably not the best choice. This 6 pc set was probably about the same price as one of their drills. I would recommend this set to any homeowner and I have seen several videos of professionals that use them daily on the job and love it. Ryobi has over 50 tools that fit the 18 volt lineup including yard tools so they are not going to leave you out there like some manufacturers do when they put out a new lineup. Each of my four batteries fit all my tools. I love that. Also, if you decide you want the 4.0 amp/hr batteries later, you should wait until they come out in a special offer of 2 for the price of 1. This saved me $99 doing this. There is a 3 year warranty on all items.

I have owned this set for a while now and am very happy. I will update later how it is doing.

The tools look great and they feel great to use. Weight of the impact drill is a little lighter than what I’m used to and I love it for that,

I love #Ryobi. I keep buying more tools on the One+ system, they last and last after loads of “heavy lifting” jobs!

Dad loves them. I swear he is inventing projects just to get to use them.

Works great!

These tools work great around the house and on jobs. The saws are a little limited in the jobs they can handle but I am extremely happy.

Great tools for the money. Use them around the house and for volunteer projects. Great buy.
