Ryobi R18PS-0 18V ONE+ Cordless Corner Palm Sander (Body Only), One Size

There is only one reason you would buy this over any other similar item and that's the One+ battery system which, may not be the trendiest or have the most professional box tick, but it is two things. Massive in scope of tools and surprisingly good for the money. Bottom line is that you are looking at this because you are in the One+ system and already have the batteries. So, as in other more recent Ryobi offerings this is a well made cordless tool. I have some of their stuff going back 12 years now, all of which have been well battered during my house renovation. They are all still going strong despite the fact that the later tools are far better made. In a nutshell I know from personal experience that unless you are unlucky, this tool will last a long time and there's little to be gained buying more expensive tools from the likes of Makita. Yes, ultimately they may be a little higher quality, but Ryobi will still work in ten years time and the battery pack still fit unlike many manufacturers. In use this does exactly what I want for a detail sander. Great for finishing work and getting into corners where needed. Being cordless you have the massive benefit of no blasted power cable getting in the way. With a decent battery - I use 5Ahr ones - you will get well bored before it runs out so no fears about not getting the job done. Now, I do note that some people say the battery is stiff to remove and I would say it is a tad stiffer than my drills. However this is a sander and as such is subject to long periods of high vibration which, will tend to loosen off anything it can and shake battery terminals. My gut feeling is that a more positive lock was actually done on purpose to avoid damage or sparking on the contacts. You get a few sanding sheets in the box - good - but thereafter I just buy no-name stuff off Amazon. No way will I pay for brand name stuff which, is the same just twice the price. Overall another cracking Ryobi tool.

First thing Quality of packaging was great amazing quality nice clean crisp colourful packaging package in well. Plus Amazon packaging was great to and 100% ♻️ recyclable. Arrived safely and in good condition and great time. Product is great very very easy to use , colours are cool and I love working with them have a few different ones now. Would give them 5 stars all day long. Only had my first one brake after a lot of work and couldn't find any faults with it at all . Super for DIY...semi pro to .......the.....professional s. Cost - I have to brake this down...ok the item is still great quality the price is fine up to a point, but with this type of tool you have to remember that you still need to buy a battery and charger if you don't have any more of the ryobi set, and the power tools need high Ah (amp hour) batteries which will cost as a first buy. However once you own one or two 4 or 5 Ah batteries and one or more tools you use all plus one set with the same batteries and charger. The cost will balance out. I do think that the body of the tools cost could be quite a bit cheaper but I happy to pay to get the full quality and a tool that will do what I need it to do. I don't want to buy cheaper and loose on quality and performance and money later on. Ryobi, are great tools 👍 .p.s remember to buy your battery....guy's and a charger .Hope this helps.

Ryobi products are great value and battery life excellent. Just a pity that CBS only stick a label on the manufacturers box for all to see what the parcel is. With couriers today just leaving parcels at a doorstep, I am sure many deliveries will go walk about.

This is a fantastic little sander and is well worth the money. This is obviously designed to be used with the RYOBI One+ battery system and really compliments any tool kit. The battery life is very good and gives the user a couple of hours constant use and leaves a really good finish on any material it is applied to. Also comes with a few sandpaper shears to get you started.

Love ryobi one+ tools and this is no exception. A lot of buzz for your buck. Great little sander - couldn’t believe how quickly and effectively it worked compared with my old black and decker sandstorm. Such a relief having no trailing cables, and probably more powerful overall. Battery is a bit stiff to come out, but having read other reviews I gave it a squirt of wd40 and no problem at all.

Light , very powerful and the battery lasts a long time very pleased with my delivery

I have lots of Ryobi tools this is an excellent sander .

works well and easy too use
