Before making a big purchase, it helps to know how the drill holds up in real scenarios. While Ryobi’s website has just six reviews for the drill, it has a perfect rating. You can look at the product page on Home Depot’s website for a better idea. The Right Angle Drill has over 600 reviews there, and while it’s not a perfect score, 95% of buyers recommend it. The lightweight build is a big plus, especially if you’re using it in awkward places.
As with many Ryobi products, it includes an 18V battery that can be used with other power tools that use the same battery voltage. This is part of the One+ line, meaning the same 18V battery you use with your power drill will also work with the Right Angle Drill. It’s a nice bonus for buying into the Ryobi ecosystem, and you’ll end up with a lot of batteries in the process. This allows you to skip the battery purchase for future products and save some cash. In the case of this drill, you can save $40 by omitting the battery.
