You've tried one?

If it is to the quality of their drill/drivers then it is good.

So "no" then.


If you assess the price of
the 14.4 v drill/driver as about the same as the angle drill, then that
is
£57 for the angle drill, when Makita's are going for £170. That is
approx
THREE times the price.

This depends on how you want to count it.

From 1 and the 2 and onwards.

I already said that in my
view, just looking at the initial price tag
only gives a small piece
of the overall story.

The Ryobi is not a £12 cheapy.

I didn't say that it was nor that it was junk. It is suitable for
some applications and budgets, but is not at Makita's standard.


I am waiting for a mains cheapy to come along for the amont of use I
would
give one. All they are is angle grinder geared down, and you can buy
them
for £12.

That's fine. If it's your understanding of the way in which an angle
drill works and your use is minimal then a £12 product is probably
appropriate for your needs anyway.

Since it's coming up to Christmas, have a look at this

https://www.hamleys.com/web/product/...&CategoryID=4&

Should suit your needs and great value at only £29.95

I think they are cheaoer at B&Q

Probably.



If you promise to behave then I'll write to Santa for you.

You are considerate.

I'm all heart :-)
