@@natepeterson7145 In my case I bought a Rigid pump and in those days it was lifetime warranty. Well the pump went bad in a year or two so I called them for a replacement. As it turns out you have to send it to them, which was costly and could take six weeks and no guarantee they would fix it, or if you can find a local Rigid repair center you can go there. Well I found a local place but they only do commercial/industrial repairs. So, it was one of those situations where sure they would warranty it but it was so costly and time consuming it was basically not really covered. I like Rigid stuff but I haven't had all good experiences with them.

If it's Makita Milwaukee DeWalt whatever, if the tool is best suited for me and the job I'm doing then that's what I buy. Lowe's was running a Craftsman clearance so I got a set and have to say I do grab them thinking it's the Milwaukee stuff trying to put the wrong battery on more than I'd like to admit but all chargers and batteries are in the same spot so only embarrassing and not to time consuming

You nailed it at 10:07 ! When I buy a compact recip saw I am buying it to get into tight areas and could care less about stroke length. For me the smaller the better and of course lighter because I can get into tighter areas without fatigue and even if it cuts slower chances are if I am using this type of saw it is only for a few cuts. If i wanted something powerful i would just be using my regular full size.

I own the DeWalt one hander, bought and returned the Kobskt one hander and have used the Milwaukee m12 & m18 one handers many times. In my opinion, while the Kobalt and Milwaukee units all cut faster, especially through wood, I will take the DeWalt all day. I didn't buy it to cut 2x12s or 4x4s.... As a landscaper, I bought it for pruning and irrigation and it's absolutely amazing for that. I also routinely break down pallets with it. The vibration is the best I've ever experienced in ANY recip saw, it's relatively quiet, it's light weight and compact. After using it for about 2 years, I don't want a saw that's any heavier. Frankly, I've been curious to see the Metabo HPT one hander run with the DeWalt. That said, the Ridgid looks very impressive here. It doesn't look much bigger, and I haven't used it or felt the weight, but if it's close to the DeWalt in weight and vibration reduction, it seems like a keeper.

Well you pick the tool for the job and like other commenters stated the DeWalt one handed saw is made for finer work and grab the next one up for cutting through 2X10s. Started out 18yrs ago with Ridgid but switch to DeWalt because they made a much larger line of tools to allow me to stay in one battery platform and get the jobs done for my work and could also use their OPE for my home lawn care. Milwaukee and DeWalt definitely seem to have the trades covered. Ridgid does make good tools. My stuff from 18yrs ago still work fine. Good video Vince to resolve the argument of the knot but all in all if comes down to the tool for the job. I think DeWalt is also doing a great job on giving people what they want ....smaller tools with smaller batteries .....don't want to carry heavy tools especially when we get older

It's a fair test. What you have to consider is the market for these tools.

Put load on the tool and that drops to a steady 18v in use. And what I read online the atomic is home depot's answer to Lowe's DeWalt Xtreme 12v line of tools. Because home Depot cried a hissy fit when Lowe's got the deal to be the exclusive retailer at least in the us for dewalts 12v line. So home Depot got the atomic line. Marginally better specs than 12v but on a battery platform everyone already has.

DeWalt batteries are cheaper than Makita and Milwaukee typically, all depends how you are buying them. When you see a deal you stock up. Every brand had it's hits and misses, the original 1 key Milwaukee drill had the worst chuck ever made, etc. I have a large collection of DeWalt 20v and 12v, there are winners and a couple that are underwhelming. Flexvolt advantage/power detect drills are beasts, yes the 887 was outdated but never let me down. The new 850 is great as well. I don't like the original XR and Compact sawzall but the flexvolt advantage saw is a lot better. The router and jigsaw are great, nothing wrong with the XR grinder, drywall cutout and screwgun are fine, etc. I have a sizable investment in DeWalt and Makita, neither have let me down, and I'm sure a few tools could be improved but that's the same for everyone. The new 12v extreme stuff has been very good as well, but I will say they were late to the game.

I would like to see Rigid vs Milwaukee M12 fuel and M18 fuel one handed saws. That test you did on the two handed saw still comes to mind, even with slightly.better specs on paper, the rigid lost to the super Sawzall.

you know, when i watched the other video i thought omg how easy would it be to disable those competitors tools to really make it seem better.

I was going to get compact bandsaw from Ridgid but the reviews are bad on reliability vs makita and the lifetime service agreement process is slow from what I hear have to wait weeks so couldn’t go with them even though I wanted to

Amazing, I thought DeWalt would do better. Ridgid boat raced DeWalt.

The Ridged against the Ryobi offering would be interesting, since Ryobi is trying to step up their brand and gain a broader appeal to pros/contractors.

Would be interesting to see. In theory the Ryobi should still be a tad behind in some way since they are both made by TTi and they seem to stagger by price point per performance. So low, med, high would be Ryobi, Ridigid, Milwaukee.

so one of my co-workers runs rigid and its funny because he's gone through 8 drill drivers in a year and still uses there tools and just recently bought one of these compact recip saws. he had me use it and I have to admit I like the handling a lot better than my atomic 20v compact recip. I think the dewalt would be a lot better if it had more strokes I honestly wish more tool manufactures would have like a couple variations of the tools or even somehow miraculously make an adjustable stroke length. still prefer dewalt 😁

You should put it against the new flex saw. I have both lines and am not sure witch one to pick up.

The word on the street about Ridgid is a few years ago some of their Octane tools were just as powerful (even some more powerful, i.e. impact wrenches) then Milwaukee, but once the TTI executives caught wind about it they basically give Ridgid a slap on the wrist and said you can't do that. Milwaukee is supposed to be the top-tier brand. So they made Ridgid detune their tools and build less powerful models. Since then Ryobi has stepped up with their new One+ HP line to which I would say Ridgid and Ryobi are almost equals now. The problem for Ridgid is Ryobi has the largest 18V line of tools in the industry.

I could see the benefit of the shorter stroke if you're working in a tight spot. The tools with the shorter stroke are typically targeted at plumbers, electricians etc. I have an older Ridgid Fuego 120 volt one-handed saw that has maybe a 1/2" stroke. It's really good for the type of things that you're going to be wanting to cut one-handed. One thing it's terrible at is sheet metal cutting. My assumption is because it changes direction more often than any of my other recip saws.
