While it’s considered by some as a budget brand since it doesn’t have the heavy-duty durability that pricier lines, Ryobi is widely hailed as one of the best affordable tool lines that’s still high quality for homeowners and hobbyists, and right now is the perfect time to buy in. As part of an extended Memorial Day sale, their best-selling Ryobi ONE+ 18V Starter Kit is down to $99 (originally $228)— and you get to choose a free tool valued at up to $79.97.

The starter kit is ideal for those already in the Ryobi ecosystem or preparing to stock up on the brand’s tools. It includes a 2.0Ah battery, a 4.0Ah battery, and an 18V charger to power any Ryobi device and extend runtime while you work. It also gives you access to the brand’s ONE+ ecosystem, which works with hundreds of tools across different categories, including DIY, lawncare, automotive, and home maintenance. 

The BOGO deal lets you choose one of 13 popular tools, such as a leafblower, hedgetrimmer, saw, or multi-tool. The included 18V charger is versatile, and the heavier 4.0Ah is a powerhorse for longer jobs. The smaller 2.0Ah battery charges faster and is lighter, though it may not be enough for more demanding projects.

Still, for $99, this is a strong Ryobi starter or expansion deal, especially if you need backup batteries or frequently run into dead tools mid-project. While it’s not a standalone power tool, this bundle is a worthwhile investment for those who already own Ryobi cordless tools or want to start building out their collection.
