Amazon Prime Day deals - Ryobi wrench any good?

[marlinspike]

Thought I'd stick this here, rather than the Tools forum, as it's really just a heads up that Amazon have 2 days of offers for Prime members starting today. There are quite a few tools on offer, so perhaps if anyone spots a particularly good deal they could add it to the thread. It's only 2 days though.

I liked the look of the Ryobi RW181W3-120S impact wrench with battery and charger for £128. 14 nm of torque - is that enough? Any body got one?

Some good deals on Amazon fire tablets and the Echo speakers. My son got a Fire tablet for £40 that he is very pleased with.

Ryobi pressure washer £62:

Decent reductions on Bosch hammer drills and Black and Decker sanders too.

Doesnt seem that good to me.

I've had a good look this morning and none of the "prime day deals" beat the normal prime price from other amazon sellers.

just bought the biggest Milwaukee Fuel 1/2inch rattle gun from Germany....
just a body only €266 euro's.....almost 1/2 of the best I could find in UK...

Always worth a price check on camel camel camel or similar - they have a habit of making deals look better than they actually are, sometimes bumping the price up just before to make the reduction look bigger. (Of course some deals are genuinely very good but it always pays to check)

I have the ryobi but came with 4ah battery which was approximately £150 including charger. Its quite good but really tight wheel bolts defeat it. Useful bit of kit.

Nope, but the 400Nm of torque that it does come with should be better

That said, even my 980Nm dewalt struggles with tight wheel bolts, as @Bobupndown says...

I've had one for a couple of years, I like it but tight wheel bolts defeat it.
Was very handy when doing the flywheel on my avensis last year, the bolts took a lot of hammering but they gave up in the end.

I'll give it a miss then. Sounds like it's good, but not great. And £130 is quite a lot of money if it still won't shift stuff.

Of course my brother had to let me have a go with his 18v milwaukee fuel impact wrench I now "need" one also....
