Ryobi dropped its cordless vac years ago, and it's taken this long to replace it? Is there that much demand for vacs that there is a second one when the brand is so far behind the alternatives?
"Ryobi is celebrating a milestone of adding the 100th cordless tool..."
Newsflash, Makita and Milwaukee claim to have passed that milestone two years ago. Makita only had a handful of 18V tools when Ryobi introduced One Plus, and became the market leader for years, but sadly, I've had no reason to buy another Ryobi tool for a long, long time.
Makita introduced the 18v angle impact driver in 2007. It took until 2014 for Milwaukee's kissing cousing to be introduced, and Ryobi still does not have one (there does not appear to be one of the horizon either).
I hope these introductions mean Ryobi may be attempting a comeback, but re-hashing old products to go brushless isn't enough.
