Always liked Rigid, under appreciated, but a quality tool. Also I like the feel of the handle, compared to Milwaukee, but that is just personal preference.

I have the mid torque impact wrench, and I can honestly say that it is all that most people will ever need. I think I paid $169 for mine, but it was a daily special that included a 4.0 max output battery, a charger and a bag. I couldn’t pass it up.

Ive used rigid for over 10 years. Ive had everything they make at some point or another. Theres 2 issues ive had with rigid. I bought one of the vaccums one time and it was garbage. The most important issue is that they arent water resistant at all. If they get wet, you are buying new batterys. Last year i lost 5 rigid batterys due to minor water contact. I just recently swapped to milwaukee and i have noticed some of the rigid tools are stronger. For me that isnt as much of an issue as the batterys crapping out all the time. Id gladly pay a lil extra for the better batterys.

@4673962 3 ай бұрын

I've seen several channels test the drill against the others. It doesn't do so good. Even with a 4 speed gear box. Especially the price. Always in the comments people still try and tout it because it has " the best trigger control". Woop ta dooey if it does. A person could buy a big powerful drill of any brand and also a compact version of any brand for the price or less than a festool. With the 2 sizes of any other brand you would outsize and out power a Festool. So one could have the big one for more power and control and have the smaller one for getting in tighter spots and do more delicate work. No brainer

@brennanfrazier7834 26 күн бұрын

It most definitely is. The only reason you think the DeWalt is stronger is the Ridgid saw will shutdown if the blade begins to bind. Which if you've ever had a cutoff disc fail in the middle of a cut you will appreciate. At 19500 rpm the shrapnel would cause a good bit of damage. DeWalt doesn't put any thought into safety and let's you go balls out. Twist that disc during a cut and watch it explode if you want. But if you can cut a strait line you'll have no problem with the Ridgid. Hell I've cut a 2 1/2" hole in porcelain tile with that Ridgid 3" saw many times as well.
