Ryobi brand products aren’t always the most powerful tools on the market, but the company does have a well-earned reputation for value. Many consider the lower cost of Ryobi tools relative to their performance to be an excellent bargain. The 18V electric snow shovel is no exception.
The Ryobi 18V One+ 10″ Snow Shovel currently goes for $119 without the battery. That’s definitely pricy compared to a normal shovel you might grab off the rack. It’s also a bit more expensive than the 11″ 10 amp Snow Joe or the 12″ 8 amp Greenworks electric snow shovels, which both go for just under $100. This might lead you to believe that Ryobi isn’t the bargain it’s cracked up to be, but it’s worth pointing out that the Ryobi model is cordless, making it much easier to maneuver.
Cordless tools are nearly always more expensive than their cable-tethered counterparts. Things look different when comparing the shovel to other cordless models. The 60V 12″ Cordless Greenworks costs $279.99, the Snow Joe 24V 13″ Cordless goes for $184.80, and the Toro Power Shove 60V sells for $299.00. Compared to these, the price of the Ryobi seems much more reasonable.
