    I bought a package like this several years ago for some home renovations and I've been using it for random tasks ever since. The batteries are getting a bit sad these days, but the tools themselves are still rock solid. Can't go wrong for this price.

    • My 9-piece kit is about 7 years old and it's all doing fine.

      • Even the batteries ?

        • +1

          My 8 year old ozito kit had 1 battery die this year , Just refused to charge . Light home duties . I used the dead battery as a trade in on 2x5.2Ah with a bunnings deal .
          Considering it was a warranty replacement for my old nicad set I can't complain .

        • +1

          Yep, I have the original 2.5Ah and 5Ah and a pair of newer 4Ah, all doing fine - not degraded enough to notice. I tend to use the newer 4Ah batteries with more power-hungry tools.

    • +1

      My only criticism is it's tough to get blades for the circ saw (probably the angle grinder too). But it's cheap and good enough.

      • +3

        Not a ton of choice in the blades due to the 10mm arbor on this saw. You can use Bosch blades if you use a 20mm to 10mm reducing bush. Which is what I use. I got mine from ebay, but that seller no longer has them so I can't link to it.

        Try searching for; saw 20mm to 10mm reducing bush

        Also 115mm grinder discs are very common and easy to get.

      • I haven't replaced the circ saw blade yet. But I got a pack of 4 discs for the grinder recently - only $9.

    • +3

      I swear they make more money off batteries than anything else!

  • I am looking for a drill and maybe an impact drive. Any recommendations?

  • I have 36v batteries, are there kits like this for those batteries

    • Aren't 36V batteries a bit chunky for hand tools?

    • +4

      No, the 36v batteries are too bulky and heavy for most handheld power tools - those all use 18v.

      The 36v batteries are only used for bigger stuff like mowers, blowers and line trimmers.

      • Thanks makes sense i have the 36v mower blower and trimmer, now I have to buy 18v batterirs as well 🤦‍♂️ probably i will go for ozito

    • Closest hand held tool you will find is the 36v EZclean stick pressure washer

  • Impact wrench kit deal when Ryobi?

  • +5

    I will again add my 2c about the Ryobi platform - if you plan on expanding out your toolset, I would advise against Ryobi. They work perfectly fine but the issue is Bunnings is a sole/exclusive distributor which creates zero incentives to provide good deals vs Ozito (which are regularly priced matched against Aldi Ferrex) and higher tier tool brands (Makita, Dewalt, Bosch).

    Getting genuine battery replacements is also way more expensive because Bunnings/Ryobi almost never provide redemption bonuses which you can buy directly or off fbm/gumtree like you would for other brands. Having said that, you could always get 3d printed adapters.

    My recommendation is to stick to Ozito which regularly have deals and a great selection of tools and get higher tier brand for stuff you use more often.

    • +7

      I can sympathize with your view, but here's a counterpoint:

      Ryobi has a broader range of tools than anyone, including Ozito. And IMO they're usually higher quality/better featured too. Some of the Ozito stuff is genuinely rubbish - for example, their 18v line trimmer is manufactured e-waste.

      Bunnings being the sole distributer can be a downside, but on the other hand, warranty claims are an absolute breeze because they know they're responsible and replacements are usually quick and hassle free, unlike some other brands.

      Ryobi stuff does regularly go on special for decent prices, and I have expanded my range of tools a few times because of this - the bargain packages often include a battery worth the total price, so the tool 'skin' is effectively free. And they do run battery-only discounts occasionally, if you do a quick search on OzBargain you'll see them.

      Ryobi stuff is good enough quality even for the power tools I use most frequently - my drill, impact driver and blower generally get used once or twice a week on average, and are 100% functional after 6 or 7 years. Spending extra on Makita/Dewalt etc is pointless for almost everyone unless they use power tools all day every day.

      • For powertools, I got Dewalt for much less than Ryobi. The only Ryobi one I got now is a wet saw, which Dewalt doesn't have.
        Ah, I have a fan and a torch light from Ryobi too - got them since long.

        • For powertools, I got Dewalt for much less than Ryobi.

          You must have found a spectacular bargain. The cheapest combo kit offered by Dewalt that includes similar items to this $320 Ryobi deal is around $900.

          • @klaw81: Other than the batteries and the bag, Dewalt doesn't have tools in the same league as this kit's. I bought this kit earlier, sold on Marketplace 3 of the tools after 1 day, and sold the grinder few months later, only keeping the bag and one battery to use with my garden tools.

            I got a Dewalt drill driver + impact + reciprocal saw + 2x5Ah batteries for $350. The similar drill driver + impact + 2x4Ah batteries (without the reci saw) from Ryobi is $399 (I've kept my eyes on that kit for years, but it never happened). The brushless 165mm circular saw from Ryobi has always been at $249, while I got the Dewalt one + an 8Ah battery for $236.

      I would love to trade my Makita brushless drill and driver set for the equivalent Ryobi set. Expanding Makita collection is much more expensive.

      • +2

        If all my Makita gear was stolen I would likely not buy it again. Just too expensive now, and I no longer use them for work so not really justifiable.

        I would probably just add to the Ryobi and Ozito I already have, with a few Dewalt when on sale.

    • Agree. I only buy their HP range, and those tools have never gone on sale AFAIK. I've bought a few for RRP and then switched to Dewalt.

      Now i have tools from Ryobi, Ozito, Aldi and Dewalt. TBH I can't see much difference between Ryobi HP line and Dewalt for my use cases, but Dewalt can be way cheaper if I wait/hunt for deals.

      • +1

        Agree, also bought only the HP range. Have sold some of them but kept the gardening tools - whipper snipper, secateurs, hedge trimmer. Now have a mix of Ryobi, DeWalt, Makita and ToolPro.

    • +1

      During Ryobi days (recently ended) the batteries are quite reasonably priced.

    • Yes I do regret not going ozito if the main factor is price alone, but I do have Rockwell/Tool pro tools that Mitre10/supercheap auto sells.

      Pros for Ryobi - If you check your emails regularly they always do $10-$20, sometimes $50 Bunning gift cards when you purchase and register tools within a period of time.

  • Got that, got that, got that, got that - but………

    Tempting.

  • is that the new lower price rather than a deal?

  • 115 grinder is not good. I bought these few years back. very regrettable

    • Why's that?

    • +1

      You may have had the older model 115mm grinder if it was a few years back. The one in this kit was only released in the last 2 years,

      I had the older one a few years back and it was indeed a bit lacking in power. Hopefully the new one is improved.

      Easy way to tell which one is, if yours has 2 grey triggers with the safety lockout is on top of the handle it's the older one. Black trigger is the new one.

      • Right, I'm the older one.

  • I've been looking at a impact driver. Ryobi HP series is not a "cheap" tool when compared to the market. But the tool itself is pretty meh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjBK0-42M8s
    I'd say AEG might be a better option over the Ryobi HP series

    4 piece not 40!

    • +1

      That was a mod revision, probably a typo:) Sorted, thanks.

  • -1

    Ozito is just as good, cheaper and cheaper batterys. and are coming out with new stuff all the time to match the larger range of ryobi.
