[Home Depot] Ryobi 18 Volt ONE+ 18-Gauge Cordless Brad Nailer $123 YMMV

Deal Link:: https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.18-v ... 81783.html
Price:: 123.00
Retailer:: Home Depot

I know there are several Ryobi threads being posted right now, but I thought this deal would warrant its own thread. The highly rated Ryobi 18 volt 18 gauge brad nailer is currently on sale for $144, down from $198. When I went to HD last week I noticed the Ryobi poster that showed the lower price of $128 (see picture below), so I pointed it out to the HD associate who gave it to me at this price, no question asked. I used the $5 email sign up discount and ended up paying $123 plus tax. YMMV

Is it strong enough for using to build a fence?

18GA is basically finishing nails, primarily for trim like around door or window frames. For a larger project or for nailing boards thicker than 1" you're probably going to need an air powered nailer and a compressor.

Not really... If you had some 2" brad nails and put it thru some 1x4 or something maybe it would hold... If any weight is on it, it won't hold, better off getting a real nailer or just screwing the fence.

Anybody had success with this @122 ? I am debating between Ridgid (own batteries) and this one, but Ridgid has very shitty reviews while this one seems awesome. I don't want to double 18V tool choice but I also don't want to buy garbage tool @200% of price. Plus - I didn't see Ridgid makes yard tools...mower, blower or trimmer (either they don't make it or HD doesn't carry it).

I own Ryobi and Ridgid (Older version though) 18GA cordless nailer. Personally I like Ridigd better, as it won't leave impact marks on the wood. I tried all settings on Ryobi but it still left marks.

However if you don't mind the marks, Ryobi is a better choice in terms of tool availability for home owners.

May jump on this. Thanks OP.

But this is the bare tool, correct?

How much are batteries?

Cheers

P102 battery = $29.
You will need a charger, too, may cost you $30~$40 on Kijiji.

I have DeWalt 20V tools and no Ryobi tools. There's a cordless nailer on sale for $279 at Atlas Tools right now. Given the price and quality differences, and the fact that I'd have to find a Ryobi battery and charger, should I just pay extra up front for the DeWalt?

Dewalt is a different beast, its 1.5x-2x faster than the Ryobi. But its heavier. I have both, but I prefer the Ryobi for the job I need and its soooo lighter.

So you're saying I'll get more of a workout with the Dewalt?

Thanks for your reply!

I have the DeWalt 16ga version ($370) and it is amazing. Pay more for DeWalt, get a better tool. Your call.

My tools are either Dewalt or Ryobi.
Invest more for Dewalt if I use the tool a lot, Ryobi if it is occasional use or if the dewalt equivalent is ridiculously more expensive. It's a pretty good mix.
I have this brad nailer. The plastic tip isn't the best especially if you are pressing the tip at an angle. Otherwise, it is very good.
