When you hear the name Ryobi, the first thing most people think about is power tools for DIY projects and homeowner repairs. And while that's certainly true, you don't have to be a DIYer to absolutely love several of Ryobi's most popular products. The company makes a little bit of everything, and there are several you'll probably want to own.

I've owned countless portable power stations, and cold weather or outdoor adventures always bring them to their knees. Charging slows, the battery drains faster, and you run low sooner than expected.

Makita fans know the company makes a little bit of everything, from capable 18V LXT tools to smaller CXT models, or even battery-powered coffee machines. And if you have a few Makita tools and are looking to add more to your collection without breaking the bank, here are a few worth considering.

If your favorite green tool is broken or no longer works the way it should, don't toss it out and drop a bunch of cash on a replacement. A cheap spare part might be all you need, and you don't have to scroll through eBay to find it. Did you know Ryobi has a website where you can buy spare parts and accessories?

DeWalt makes hundreds of power tools, but you don't need to spend a ton of cash to get quality gear. While you probably already own several basics, if you're a new homeowner or simply on a budget, certain tools are must-buys. Here are a few affordable DeWalt tools worth buying.

When you need a power tool and head to the hardware store, you'll see options from Ryobi, DeWALT, RIGID, Makita, Milwaukee, and more displayed in a rainbow of colors. Once you choose a brand, you'll start stocking up on battery packs, chargers, and endless tools. Here's what you need to know about one of the most recognizable names, Milwaukee, and whether they're worth buying.

Whether you're a DIY homeowner or a professional, you know that buying a cordless power tool means getting trapped in a single brand's battery ecosystem. If you buy any other brand, you'll need a new set of batteries and chargers. However, the complete opposite is true with the Bosch Power for All system, which lets you use a single battery with 10 brands across more than 150 tools.

The cold, harsh winter months are quickly approaching, and snow is on the way, which means it's time to get out or upgrade your winter tools. There's no need to manually shovel snow from the driveway when it's freezing, especially when cordless options exist. With that in mind, here are a few cordless winter tools you should buy before winter.

Ryobi is one of the most popular power tool brands around, especially with homeowners and DIYers. And while you probably have all the usual tools you'll see on the shelves of Home Depot, like drills and drivers, that's not all Ryobi offers. It's easy to buy some of the most recommended gear, but don't forget about these underrated Ryobi tools.

A high-quality, durable toolbox for any professional in the shop will be expensive, but that doesn't mean you need to spend $8,000 or more on one, either. Most mechanics and professionals know that Snap-on is one of the best, but you can get a toolbox with similar quality for a lot less.
