I have all Ryobi tools. I'm a home repair contractor for 51 years. Ryobi is affordable, and dependable for the money. I have corded tools as a backup. Haven't had to use yet.
It’s pretty solid. Just picked one up to remove tile and have found other uses too. The Hp battery does make some difference. What I have found is light to medium applications regular battery is sufficient but anything high torque you want the hp battery and anything where it can get hung up. Both this and my Ryobi stick vac. The hp just gives enough that it doesn’t error out if you snag some carpet or that bit gets a little more resistance to the material than you thought. On this though I found the single modes didn’t benefit much from hp battery but the hammer drill feature definitely
I'm actually quite surprised at how fast Ryobi are expanding their new Hp lineup. I started out with ryobi tools since they were affordable for a new home owner. Then I got into ridgid with their 1/2'' impact since Ryobi did not provide a decent or ''serious'' enough model for the rusty cars in my area. And finally, I converted pretty much everything to Milwaukee since it suited my needs or more in all fields, wether it's wood working, mechanic or even trimming my 200 ft long 15' height cedar edge surrounding my house. If i were to start my tool collection all over again, those new ryobi tool would probably be more than enough. I don't regret going over on the M18 platform though, way more expensive, but the performance and build quality justifies the price most of the time. I've been through all brands of TTi, and i feel like their prices are excellent for what you get.
I started in Ryobi, and now I'm in M12 and M18, if something isn't going to be used much and performance isn't necessary, Ryobi. Otherwise M12 or M18. I'm liking this setup so far. Ryobi just has some really cheap workable tools, like my trimmer, drills, fan, hybrid light, I even have the 18V mower for stuff the rider doesn't get. Will admit I was slacking this year and didn't use my ryobi mower.
@@mcqcjc8409 okay. I can make you a car and a pile of shit at the same factory. Which do you want? The drivable car or the smelly shit I made in the same factory?
@maxin3231 ive got all ryobi HP tools as a plumber, the only things that aren't is an m12 no hub torque gun, an m12 pex expander, and m12 pipe shear that I got free with the expander, everything else is ryobi HP, grinder, hammer drill, 1/2" impact, impact driver and drill, compact recip saw, and framing nailer, all works and nothing broken on me or stopped working in the last 3 or 4 years since I've been using it
I'm an electrician and my opinion is that ryobi is just fine if you do tenant work/commercial and residential renos. But the new construction/big projects you want versatility, range and lifespan in your power tools and the only 3 that I've worked with that truly offer just that are milwaukee, dewalt and hilti
batteries are batteries. They are gonna stop being able to be recharged well. (as an electrician, I find that we should be buying the batteries in the battery pack and just swapping them, instead of buying whole new batteries) But ryobi is a low enough cost to keep rebuying it. Lets say if it was stolen, even., You wont be crying as badly, if it were ryobi. . HILTI!? Now youre gonna be hunting down hypes in the street! LOL
We use a Hilti 36V Rotary Hammer Drill TE 30-A36 at work. That thing is a beast! Weighs just over 11 pounds and is super smooth to operate. We drill hundreds of 1/2 and 3/4 holes through 12 inches of concrete with ease. It's quite pricey and additional batteries are super pricey as well but that thing is amazing! Best I've ever used!
Most of the time, Milwaukee, Ridgid and Ryobi will share similar traits regarding their design, sometimes specs, or even when it comes to marketing since they are all owned by the same corporation a.k.a TTi. Ryobi usually adress to home owner with fair performance and standard build quality at great price. Ridgid is aimed at prosumer with better performance and build quality than Ryobi, lifetime warranty, and are cheaper than milwaukee. Altough, they can't overshadow red tools too much since they are their premium lineup. And Milwaukee is just the best they can offer without any compromise aside from the price and a limited but decent warranty since a lot of theses tool are adressed and used by pros in different trades.
@ ComputerTech Ridgid is owned by Emerson and TTI makes teh battery powered tools for them. There has been some feather ruffling lately, IMHO, and I think TTI is gearing up to make Ryobi take more tools, and better ones to market to cut into the Ridgid share so TTI makes more $$
@@WorkshopAddict Yea you're right, i omited to specify that Emerson still owns Ridgid and make some amazing industrial hand tools and specialised power tools, especially for plumbing. We've got some Ridgid pipewrench and inspection cameras at work and they are amazing but ohh damn expensive. I still own several Ridgid tools i love, especially the palm router. I always figured Ridgid was probably the least profitable among the 3 since it sits in an odd spot compared to it's siblings. I was afraid they would someday drop Ridgid as one of their brand, hence one of the reasons I moved onto milwaukee sometimes ago.
Same company owns ryobi and Milwaukee- techtronic-new ryobi tools are older Milwaukee tools with different cast molds ie cheaper plastic. Look across the lineups you can see that easily.
That must be some really tough bank-grade concrete.😄 Vince over at VCG did a review on that drill and he was going through some cured 5,000 PSI concrete with a 7/8" bit. I can't wait to see how your office turns out. If you weren't so far away I'd offer to help out.
From my experience with SDS drill ( Read Very Little experience) no 1" SDS, even high end, will do well with a 7/8 bit. His concrete must have been new or not 5,000 psi. I am assuming this stuff is over 20 years old.
@@WorkshopAddict I don't have much experience drilling concrete either but last year I did drill a 1" hole in some super old aggregate with my cordless Bulldog and I was surprised at how well it did. I would imaging a four-cutter head would do better on your job.
Exactly what I did....I don't earn a living using tools so I feel more comfortable paying less for something that I'm gonna be using once or twice a month and gets the job done...I'll Leave the expensive brands for people who are actually gonna need them...
Same company owns both Ryobi and Milwaukee. There are actually very few players in the tool world. Giant corporations own dozens of brands cleverly marketed against each other.
The saying goes with sds hammers , one inch (the size of this unit ) divided by two and subtract 1/8" and you end up with 3/8"......the optimal size. Is that a true saying or fact ? Who knows ? Great vid as always
I think 3/8” is just the optimal size in general. From my brushed drill drivers to brushless hammer drills to brushless SDS+ drills the 3/8” bits always go in with the most ease and quickest puncture. I don’t know why. I think 3/8 is simply blessed.
How many batteries is enough for an 18 volt SDS? Just one more. Lol. Got a couple (Metabo HPT 36v and 18v) they are useful but man do they love batteries. Seems like the Ryobi did pretty good on the 3/8” bit.
Nice demonstration brian looks really close to the Milwaukee i wonder as well if tti took some of the Milwaukee blueprints for the ryobi 🤔 @WorkshopAddict
Same company makes milwaukee and ryobi drills techtronic industries Hong Kong so I imagine spec will be similar bur obviously milwaukee are more expensive, but how much of that extra cost is put into materials, and how much is paying for brand, now that is the question??????

Yes, Hilti, Bosch & Metabo rock!
We use the same 36V hilti that thing rips through concrete
Where do you work? My dream job is one where I get to use powerful sds every day
I just set a 12,000lbs lift into 6" concreet with mine.... Worked wayyy better than I thought it woud have. I was using old, beat ass 3/4" bits too!!!
Ryobi tools don't get stolen which is great
It would be interesting to see how well it does with a hammer only function for chipping, etc.
not gonna lie, im more interested in the concrete box then the tool. Its always interesting to see how and why things are built
Mine did the job for tile removing big tiles
Do you think this tool would take advantage of Ryobi's new line of Edge batteries?
Got the hp ryobi saws and sds drill upgraded kit,what a difference now a serious but of kit all the power you need.
Do you get the tools straight from Ryobi, or does your Home Depot already have them in stock. Thanks!!
Early stock
@@WorkshopAddict ok, my store won’t get anything till end of January. Great video as always!
@@zandersmith6960 They have them in the back somewhere. Lol
Ryobi seams like it's just turning into the old model Milwaukee with Green Shell.
Same thing Ridgid does also.

I want to know how it mixes cement in a pale, will it smoke?
What is that bit you used first with the vac on it? I'm from the UK and I've not seen anything like that

Great machine
Broke some very big old tiles
No problem
This looks like a must have before my next bank job ;)
Good to know that a $329.00 Rotary hammer is a little faster than a $169.00 Rotary hammer.
well one would think that you would get a little more performance for the extra money. 🤔
@@Chevroletcelebrity not always. In other test, this beats more expensive brands.
You should do a teardown to actually see how similar they are
Sure, I would like to see inside both machines!!

I might pick one up to chip away at tile I’m getting ready to redo
Can’t wait till Ryobi releases high performance HP plus pro air batteries
When I bought my dewalt one I took the handle off in the first 5 mins and haven't seen it since lol
Lmao
If it makes you feel better I just found the spare belts for a vacuum I haven't had for like 8 years.

This is just showing up in Home Depot. Saw it at the local store
So it drilled about the same as milwaukee
WHAT WAS INSIDE THAT BOX??? :)
Ryobi is a beginners contractor tool lots of accessories they are pro to me
How many batteries is enough for an 18 volt SDS? Just one more. Lol.
Got a couple (Metabo HPT 36v and 18v) they are useful but man do they love batteries. Seems like the Ryobi did pretty good on the 3/8” bit.
red was faster but not THAT much faster and for the home DIYer not worth the extra cost.
Your not letting the tools do the work, you shouldn't push to hard on SDS drill's
Nice demonstration brian looks really close to the Milwaukee i wonder as well if tti took some of the Milwaukee blueprints for the ryobi 🤔 @WorkshopAddict
Also , only having 1.6 ft lbs puts a little behind the Milwaukee
A 40 volt version seems like a natural progression for ryobi. But I guess if they are following Milwaukee development then it won't happen
A safecracker you will make hmmm the rotary hammer drill is strong in this one
glock gen 4 has more finger groves that grip is more like an m16a2 with the single finger grip
how much
Can tell he puts more force on the milwaukee
Seems to me like they were pretty even

I switch to oby one ryobi and sold the milkwaukees ,
Looked the same to me 🤷🏽♂️
1" what's 1" about this tool
Maximum diameter drill bit size recommended/rated for the tool
That switch bank in the background makes me want to vomit
LOL. The on and off for the open and closed signs. The bank was well taken care of in all aspects except banking electronics.
