Ryobi 18V One+ Multi Tool R18MT3-0
VerifiedMPN: R18MT3-03 reviews
None of the attcahments are any good – Took it back after one use. Told Bunnings that it was not fit for purpose (after being interrogated) and to their credit, they gave me a refund. I love all of my Ryobi tools, had them for twenty years but this one is absolutely hopeless, even the sander. The unit got really hot and the blades felt like they were going to shoot off and burn. The attachment was not straight and kept falling off.
Purchased in at Bunnings Warehouse Retail Stores for $129.
Get something better – Not even a year old, not overly much use, and I can bin it all because of a bolt which can't be purchased separately. I had bunnings try to get the locking bolt to hold the bits, as it had worn super excessively and rusted all around, they told me ryobi don't sell that part. Yes I was silly to pay cash and not keep a copy of the receipt, but what gets me is the quality of something made week 29 in 2021, and how quickly it degrades. Shame as all my other tools are ryobi but think I'll skip this tool next time around.

One fault but received a replacement – This multi tool works very well and reliably does the job. Unfortunately, after a week of diy sanding, the trigger ceased working. It started by intermittently turning the power on then off, and eventually the unit capsized. I did return it to Bunnings who quickly clamped a battery for testing, the LED light came on but the trigger switch still wasn't turning the unit on. The guy at the counter also confirmed that it was highly likely the trigger switch.
The replacement has been working perfectly, and I'm actively using it to get into some corners while preparing the decking for oiling. So far, 3 weeks and no problems.
