I love mine! I use it all the time to blow off the porch and my tools. I also picked it up in December during the HD price drop and I coupled it with the $150 off kit promo. I think I paid $40 for the blower. I highly recommend.

Same power rating of 175nm as the TD148/XDT09 impact drive, however it is even smaller and has 6 different impact modes programmed in. Even though they share the same power rating, it does drive screws/fasteners slightly quicker than the TD148/XDT09! If you want more info, including head to head video comparisons, check out @toolpig on instagram.

I used it for the first time on Sunday. The edger blade was new (square ends), edger new, and the yard/driveway had not been edged in years (I've owned the house since January). I set the depth of cut to be roughly 1" deep to avoid bog down as much as possible and get an edge to form on the yard. I will say my yard has a higher than normal water table and the rich soil is always moist and thick. I definitely bogged the Ryobi down quite a few times. I even triggered the shutdown circuit 3 times when doing the yard due to overload. Pull the trigger and back to life it spins. I also had to clean out the shroud as it got filled with wet soil and dragged the blade of the edger. Overall, I was very pleased with the performance of the Ryobi with the edger. I chose the edger attachment with the 7.5" blade over the 9" blade of others as it was less rotating mass for the electric motor to keep going. Since electric motors have fantastic torque, the edger performed beautifully, better than I expected. It is only going to get easier to use as I get the edge on my yard to stick.

I was able to snag the newest and most powerful impact Makita has just come out with for a killer deal. $178 shipped to me from Japan on Ebay - Seller Yosh-set This is being called the 'King of Impacts' by Makita and is more powerful, if only slightly, than the TD148/XDT09. I will keep you all posted if I get slapped with any import fees.

I did my 65' long driveway with the 15" EZ Clean model paired with the Homelite 3100psi pressure washer when I first bought the house. The driveway was incredibly dirty. It took multiple passes with the EZ clean to get a good result. I did notice that many times the spinner didn't want to spin when water pressure was applied. I had to press and release the trigger multiple times until a good rotation was achieved to clean appropriately. Overall no real complaints in my 6-7 hours of total use with it. I am wondering if the larger DeWalt model works considerably better? Also I wonder who the OEM manufacture is?

Your existing wand will quick connect into the surface cleaner. Viola!

Saw this the other day for the 1st time at Home Depot for $99. It peaked my interested as I have the cheaper 16" model HD sells and it is alright. I did a quick google search and found zero information on this item. Figured I would share it here. http://www.homedepot.com/p/DEWALT-3-400-PSI-Surface-Cleaner-80175/206593618?MERCH=RV-_-rv_homepage_rr-_-NA-_-206593618-_-N PRODUCT OVERVIEW Model # 80175 Internet # 206593618 Store SKU # 1001618743 The DEWALT Surface Scrubber is used for cleaning garage floors, driveways, patios, decks, sidewalks and more.

I really wish they made an attachment capable string trimmer. The new 15" model only folds in half, from what I can tell. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

I will say the EGO mower is special and a complete joy to use. I especially love how easy it is to fold the handle flat and store the mower upright. This frees up valuable storage space in my small garage workshop I am putting together in my new to me 1941 house/garage. However, it has noticeably less suction/mulching power than the outgoing Toro gas model it replaced. It just doesn't suck up the leaves and debris from the yard like the gas mower did (I bag the clippings). This means more raking for me. Luckily, living in North Florida, there isn't a whole lot of raking to be done. I will see if this aspects bugs me or not over the long run.

4 of the 5 HD's I stopped at on Saturday had them all assembled out on the floor. Each store had 4 of them in stock.

Purchased the mower bundle from the daughter, her father had passed away. Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

Completed my cordless lineup yesterday with the $30 purchase of the EGO string trimmer with 2ah battery. I bought the Ryobi 40v attachment capable string trimmer with battery and charger for $40 off of Craigslist. The edger attachment was free from Lowe's, thank you Spring Black Friday. My biggest score was the EGO 20" mower, all attachments, fast charger, and x2 4ah batteries for $100 off of Craigslist! This was in near new condition too. I did have to drive 1.5hrs away though. I am now all cordless and love it! Sent from my SM-G900P using Tapatalk

I have owned mine for nearly 9 months now. I absolutely love it! I use it more than my 12" miter saw now. I actually prefer cutting with it, especially smaller delicate pieces. Battery life is ridiculously good for only running off of one battery. I have never chewed through a 5ah in one days use. I have modified mine to cut a 2x4 on edge in one pass which is nice as well. I do wish it has some other features the Metabo cordless miter saw has. But this will do for now.

Measurements are 60″ x23.9" × 60" (to the top of the pegboard)

I have had great luck calling DeWalt warranty department. They have sent me new items on many occasions to replace the item under warranty. I have not had to visit a DeWalt service center yet. I wouldn't trust the yahoo's working the service center to repair my tool correctly anyway.

Early production DCD996! That would be cool.

And it took this long to release a tool that has been out for ages in 18V with little to no important changes other than marketing lingo. They could have easily just changed the battery connection on the hold tool years ago and had this available.

Alright, Who is interested in one? Price would be $50 each shipped to you. This may seem steep but that factors in shipping from Germany (not sure if I will end up having to pay any import taxes), me boxing the item up to ship to you, shipping to you, and the PayPal fees that will be subtracted once payment is placed. I am getting 3 for myself. Going to retrofit it to my Fein vacuum for Tstak capability. And going to make a Ridgid Pro tool box adapter to carry Tstak with it. PM me if you are serious. Travis

I am pretty sure they are referring to the removable bins as dividers in that statement. I could be wrong. There is not another sentence stating the bins are removable so it makes sense that this sentence is referring to them.

I am getting pricing from PROMARCO. He stated shipping would be $35-50 dependent on quantity of the order.

Sent Promarco a message. Thanks for the info Mr. Yellow. I will let everyone know what the response is.

I tried to find a UK store that shipped to the US as I wanted one or 5 to resell to you yahoos. No luck. I was also trying to get the dust collection attachment for the DeWalt oscillating multitool.

The DeWalt 200psi quiet trim compressor (DWFP55130) that was on sale for the Holiday at HD is now marked down to $99. I picked one up last night. The store had 2 more. HD online lists it at $229 while Amazon has it at $199 with great reviews. Paired with a Lowe’s 10% off coupon and it is a great buy.

These have been at my local Home Depots for the last month and available at HD online. They are however new and redesigned. Both are getting very positive reviews as welcomed improvements to the outgoing models. The tools are not available online or as bare tools yet. As of right now, you get the kit with the charger and compact lithium + battery in 'Select' stores only.

Just an FYI. The new Ryobi is not yet available for purchase as a bare tool although it is listed. Also, Ryobi just released a new updated version of their ONE+ chainsaw and it is fantastic.
