The Ryobi RMT18-120SA15 18V Lithium-ion Multi Tool is a fully interchangeable and versatile multi tool and part of the Ryobi One+ range we’ve been busy reviewing our way through here at The Practical Gent. Ryobi One + is the world’s largest interchangeable tool system and the Ryobi RMT18-120SA15 is an important part of that set.
This tool comes with a universal accessory adapter, making it compatible with a range of accessories, even from other manufacturers. This allows you to purchase consumables like sanding sheets and saw blades as cheaply as possible. The Ryobi RMT18-120SA15 comes with a tool kit that includes a plunge-cutting blade and a flush sanding pad. It features hassle-free attachment changes, enabling you to switch between cutting, sanding, and sawing in a flash. An integrated LED light ensures your working area is always well-lit and safe.
As all Ryobi One+ tools are compatible with all One+ batteries, the 18V mechanism is powerful enough to handle any drilling task. Despite its lower cost compared to other manufacturers’ equivalent 18V multi-tools, the Ryobi One+ Multi-Tool performs on par with some of the best on the market. Even the smallest 1.3Ah battery provides 30 minutes of constant use, which is more than sufficient for most household tasks. The largest 4Ah battery lasts long enough to keep the tool running for hours, which, for regular household usage, can easily stretch to a month!
The Ryobi RMT18-120SA15 18V ONE+ is the perfect multi-tool for cutting in hard-to-reach areas, fine sawing, and sanding tight corners and spaces. It is an essential tool for most DIY enthusiasts. While the bare tool is available for purchase, we recommend this model, which comes with the tool kit and battery. It is supplied with a flush-cutting blade, a wood/metal cutting blade, and a sanding pad, all of which attach to the universal accessory adapter. A hex key is included for all attachment changes.
Whether you’re cutting plaster to fit plug sockets, sanding the tight corners of wooden windows, cutting the ends off nails and screws, or handling other carpentry and joinery tasks around the house, the Ryobi One+ Multi-Tool is the tool for you.
Ryobi uses new lithium-ion batteries in all its One+ tools, reducing weight, increasing battery life, and eliminating memory effect. This means each battery is more durable and longer-lasting than its NiCad equivalent.
The tool shown here is supplied with the multi-tool kit, a 2.0Ah lithium-ion battery, and a charger. We believe this represents excellent value for money. The base tool costs around £90, so adding the tool kit, battery, and charger for an additional £60 is a bargain.
