Great deal on a Ryobi combo set. Picked this up yesterday in store and got another £10 off with a voucher. Comes in a nice bag to boot.
Drill body alone goes for 65-90 plus you get an impact driver and a combi drill. Batteries are a bit poor at 1.3mAh but overall it's a great deal with the charger.
One drill and batteries will cost £78, impact driver another £90 then the saw body on top!

Good price heat added.

despite it being slated I love my One+ system but the circular saw is useless on a 1.3-1.5mah battery so factor in the cost of a 4.0 or higher battery which is well worth the invesment.

Don't buy a Ryobi sander. Dust gets in the switch and stops it from working. Drills are good and heave one of their hedgetrimmers and lawnmower but won't ever buy one of their sanders again. Not sure why they dropped the aH to 1.3. Mine are higher than that and still have one from 2009.

I've got almost all one+ tools, I love them but the saw is the worst tool ever made, even struggled cutting 9mm mdf.... don't even think about cutting a worktop or something. my makita brushless one however is also 18v and will cut anything. I would still but this but then sell the saw on eBay

Me too, but I disagree about the saw.
With a a decent thin-kerf blade and a 4Ahr battery, its a great bit if kit to have and does whatever other similar brands do - ie cuts

the impact driver (which I bought separately from Amazon last year and returned) is also useless... but the drill has served me well moving into a new house and doing all sorts, and the circular saw works well enough for light tasks.
This isn't professional kit by any means - you can't compare it to Bosch Blue or Makita - but well above the average home DIY non-brands. I picked up several body-only tools in the US (pre-Brexit!) where it's a really well accepted brand even by pros.

The impact driver is excellent. I've done a number of decking jobs with mine and it has been superb. Is it Makita, no, but then I'm not paying Makita prices. It is more than adequate for general DIY, and I've just bought another solely because it was on a lightning deal. Don't really need another, but it was a bargain :-)

The impact driver is very good.. you just need to make sure you're using a decent battery. 1.3 is useless.

How does battery capacity alter how good the driver is at drilling?
All it alters is how long it can drive for, not the quality of its driving.

Depends what you are screwing really. I have 1.4s and a 4.0. Yes the 4.0 will hit anything, but then it is heavier. For decking which is a lot of repetitive work, the 1.4s were fine and much less weight so less strain on my hand.
