Great review. Very helpful. Thank you 🤝🏻

Thanks for the feed back. Still working great to this day. 👍

My brother-in-law ran my 10" brushless Ryobi for 40 minutes continuously on a non-genuine 5Ah battery while cutting up shrubbery. Pretty decent performance, he reckoned.

It's amazing how long the batteries last in these.

Thanks for this video, I am looking at options for a cordless chainsaw and I have about 12 Ryobi 18+ tools including other Brushless Garden tools. Ryobi tools are not generally as solid as Makita, but for the average home user they seem to work quite well, I have used some of mine for over 20 years.

Never had a problem with Ryobi tools, always do what they supposed to do. Warranty claims are easy as well. No need to buy expensive brands for occasional use tools.

Another green tool for the collection love to see it Mike lol. Seems like a ripper surprised you have never owned a chainsaw. Also be careful where you store it some still drip the bar oil very slowly over time which could damage something it’s stored on or in interested to know if you have encountered this on the ryobi one.

[@MikesManCave]

I have used them, just never owned one. Never used a battery powered one before ever, only ever used petrol powered ones in the past. I drain the oil out for storage, as I do not use it that often for that reason.

I just bought the Ryobi 12" whisper brushless. Latest model

This one performs really well. Have used it a few times now. It has already paid for itself. 👍
