Good for what it is,

Alright, so going in you should already know that these aren't the greatest or highest quality. I personally only use them at home and wouldn't use them as a professional. As a pro, I use Milwaukee, Bosch, and some dewalt. These tools are just great for what I use them for. They will certainly get the job done for basic around-the-house things. I do however believe these to certainly be better than Black & Decker, and I also feel that they are better than Porter-Cable.
Batteries are alright, but are cheap to replace. These tools will last you a long time for around the house use. I have the Drill, circ saw, recip saw, flashlight, and will be getting the impact driver. The good thing about ryobi is that their tools work with either the NiCad battery or the Li Ion battery. If you get these without astronomical expectations, then you will be satisfied.

Simply put: Good tools for a cheap price. You want twice the quality, twice the run time? You would pay more than twice this price to get it, period. Tip: Charge ALL cordless tool batteries for an extended period for their first charge. I recommend overnight. Why? If your batteries do not require this, it definitely will not hurt them. If your batteries (like the ones included in this kit) require this extended charge, then you could ruin them or seriously reduce battery capacity by NOT charging them for an extended time period before the first use. Anybody complaining about [any] battery life right out of the package is either A. Not reading the instructions for their battery packs B. Not using their tools &/or batteries properly C. Not being fully honest or D. Any combination of the previous 3 choices. If you are a home user and your tools will rarely leave your home, this kit is a good value. The last reason to recommend this tool kit is because The Home Depot sells it...Read more

Good garage tools...,

This review is from: Ryobi P807 Drill and Circular Saw Combo 18V ONE System (Misc.)
I purchased this set from Home Depot for $99. The set came with a drill, circular saw, 2 batteries (18 volt), 1 charger, and a bag. I then purchased the flashlight separately.
The drill is as good of one as I have ever had. It out performs my old Black & Decker Firestorm. Mine will handle 3" screws with no problem and on high speed will pull them out in a flash. The battery life on the drill is acceptable and with 2 batteries more than I have ever needed.
The saw is not as good as the drill. It is a nice garage saw. Mine will cut through 2 x 6s or 3/4 boards stacked 2 high. It does lack a little in the torque range but gets the job done. Now, to be honest, mine goes through battery life quickly. But you can be charging one battery while using the other. They charge in about 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
The bag is phenomenal. It opens like the old "doctors" bag forming a square opening. They make good gym bags.
As I said I purchased a flashlight...Read more
