Ryobi and Milwaukee both are TTI tool brands, so it’s not really a competitor tool.
One is directed at homeowners and one is directed at pro-sumers. Ryobi batteries will fail long before Milwaukee batteries will.
I’ve always thought of Rigid as being the TTI prosumer brand and Milwaukee being more contractor-level, though their M12 line kinda bumps into the homeowner target market now where for most uses 12V gets the job done. Either way, both definitely have their places. Ryobi is great for homeowners who need the tool but won’t use it often enough to justify the price of the Milwaukee durability.
