Need tool recommendations for DIY work and garden

1) Could you please recommend a good solid combo tool set for DIY work for my two storey home.

 

2) Also please suggest tools and good solid lawn mover for my backyard 8m x 11m

Re: Tool recommendation

Hi @Samara1,

 

For lawn mowers and garden tools, the Ryobi 18V ONE+ 3-Piece Garden Care Kit R18XBF42 is an excellent choice for your backyard. This mower is lightweight, easy to manoeuvre, and battery-powered, making it quiet and eco-friendly. It comes with a battery and charger and is ideal for small to medium lawns. The line trimmer and blower also run off the same 18V battery pack.

 

For the tools, I'd stick in the same Ryobi 18V system and pickup a drill driver and palm sander, then take a look at the vast range of Ryobi One Plus tools to see if anything else might be of use. There are a few tool kits, but they include things like angle grinders, so money would be better used to buy the individual tools you actually need and will use. The beauty of the One Plus Ryobi system is that the batteries suit all their tools, so you can keep expanding your tools as needed without having to keep purchasing additional batteries.

 

Additionally, it would be a good idea to pick up a bit set for the drill, just so you can undo and fix various types of screws and fixings and drill into materials.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I'd consider a pressure washer too @Samara1. They are so handy.

Hi Mitchell, @MitchellMc 

Where can I buy the ryobi-18v-one-3-piece-garden-care-kit-r18xbf42 that you recommend in this post, the link you posted doesn't go to the product.

Desperate to get this deal for $399 as just moved to a terrace and need these items.

 

All help in finding this product would be appreciated, live in NSW near Gregory Hills Bunnings, but pick up from any near there would be fine.

Re: Tool recommendation

Hi @Scrumpy,

 

Unfortunately, the R18CBF42 kit is a limited-production promotional line that has sold out across our network.

 

A combination of this Ryobi One+ 18V 4.0Ah 33cm Cordless Lawn Mower Kit or the upgraded mower Jason has mentioned and this Ryobi 18V ONE+ Line Trimmer And Blower Kit will get you the same tools with one slightly less powerful battery.

 

Let me know if there's anything else I can assist with.

 

Jacob
