re: Power Tools (Porter Cable or Ryobi)

I own a corded Ryobi and a small 12V drill for light duty jobs. Haven't had any problems. I was told that Ryobi is manufactured by the same company that makes Ridgid and Craftsmen. Porter Cable is made by Delta. They are both comparable in quality and price. Check the cost of replacement batteries prior to purchasing. Depending on usage you may want to upgrade to Dewalt or Ridgid.
