If you need to start a cordless tool kit or replace a set that’s worn out or broken, this Ridgid 18-volt, eight-tool combo set has all the basics you need for home DIY and beginner woodworking projects. Because cordless tools can be expensive, getting a good deal on a set is a way to stretch your DIY budget. I’ve used this set for shop work building shelving and displays, and the tools are durable and the batteries hold a charge well after years of use. At 65% off, it’s a great deal for eight tools and
batteries.
Ridgid tools has been around for a century, and it makes tools with a reputation for durability and good battery life. The company is best known for inventing the pipe wrench in 1923, and since then, they have developed a line of over 30 cordless tools that can be used for anything from lawn care to carpentry. Ridgid is unique in the industry of cordless tools for offering a lifetime warrantee on their tools sold through Home Depot that includes the batteries. Once you own this set and register it with the company, you will have the battery set for as long as you want to use the tools.
I used the Ridgid tools that come in this bundle on the set of a haunted house over the course of several years and they held up, without the need for a warrantee replacement even with daily use for several hours of overtime a day. The impact driver and drill are well-balanced and comfortable to use and the new, slimmer batteries are lightweight, allowing smaller precision tools like the drywall cutout tool to be operated easily.

What do you think so far?
Because this set comes with a set of batteries covered by a lifetime warranty, you’ll save a lot on replacing batteries over time as well as in the short term by shopping the sale. In order to access the warranty on this set, you need to register the set with proof of purchase within 90 days of buying them, and they have to come from Home Depot to be eligible for the coverage. The warranty also covers all of the 18-volt tools that Ridgid makes, so if anything goes wrong, you can get a replacement or a repair at no cost.
A tool set that comes with a drill and driver is a good way to start, and this set also has saws and some accessories to build your home DIY kit. The mini shop vac is great for a home shop in a mixed use space, like a basement because you can clean up quickly using the same batteries you use for your driver and saw.
