Sure their One+ HP line is overall a bit more powerful but don't think these tools are slackers. I've been very impressed. Great introductory kit for someone starting their collection, updating older tools or new homeowners. My dad uses one of their brushed 3/8" impacts as a Ford mechanic, absolutely loves it.
You also have to remember Ryobi and Milwakee have the same parent company too. Ryobi are just nerfed MW in my opinion.

That was a helpful, as it is hard to beat DTO sales... but lately, their delivery appears to be using a slow boat from China.

Brushless mower or chainsaw? Absolutely, all day long.
Brushless driver over brushed? It's only going to be perceptible if you're using them long enough to deplete batteries. Brushless will be slightly more efficient in this regard.
But, as we all know, Ryobi batteries are so easy to come by that they might as well put them in crackerjack boxes.
Also, motor brushes are stupidly easy and cheap to replace, but people only seem to do it on their miter saws for some reason.

Techtronic Industries bought Milwaukee in 2005, while it does not own, but rather licenses Ryobi and Ridgid that each stand on their own in different facilities. Other than Ryobi and Milwaukee being tools, there is no comparison in build quality.
Milwaukee is by far the superior build that you will pay more for.
As well, Stanley Black & Decker actually owns DeWalt, Mac Tools, Bostitch, etc. that are quality tools, but also owns Black & Decker power tools that sells drills with a battery for $20 and lots of corded tools for less than $20.
Nevertheless, Ryobi is perfectly fine for the occasional user for most around the house jobs and much, much more economical on deals from DTO and HD. Other than lights and a few other items, Ryobi power tools are not to be found on commercial job sites because they do not hold up.... nor were they designed for that usage. It is like buying an entry level half ton pickup instead of a Semi truck to haul rock. If you only need a thousand pounds or so, the pickup is fine. Like all things mechanical, if you don't abuse by using more than about 80% of capability, most will last a long time.

No option to cancel the 4ah HP battery now to get it down to $75 again, but the $139 price is the same deal for those that actually want the battery.
In fact, you're the only person I have seen here comment about it, and you are 100% correct.
Makes me smirk when I see all of the "experts" here spout off and ramble on about brushless tools, and wet themselves to pay extra for brushless tools because they are smarter and know better. LOL.
A lot of those deals are not in the store, or at least they have not been in the closest store to me.
After talking to DTO that invited me to visit their facility in S Carolina, they never said it, but I came to the conclusion that a lot of their sales are pre-sales to keep the factory churning products that are already sold... a really good business model. If in stock, you get it in a week and if not, you get it in a month or two, which makes sense. Check the build date on the tool you receive and some I have gotten were built close to, or just after the order was placed.
For the price, not a big deal if you don't need it yesterday. If they would just come out and say what they are doing, or that inventory is on the slow boat from China, there would be a lot less negativity associated with delivery times. If they were in California instead of using the eastern shore unloading docks, months would be the normality.
Anyway, that is my take on DTO.

If anyone will check, battery powered brushless tools always have more power in watt hours out than the brushed predecessor it replaced... while using less amperage to make that power that then corresponds to battery longevity between charges. Everyplace there is a contact, like with brushes, you are losing current through resistance that adds up.
No more and no less, it is simple physics and absolutely not a pizzing match.
Reciprocating, circular, chain, etc. saws, trimmers and other yard tools, etc., all benefit from brushless motors. On a ladder, on a roof, down the drive, etc., I don't want to carry another 4 to 8 amp battery as a backup if I don't have to. And if I am paying the labor, the less times they are up and down a ladder to exchange batteries, the less that job costs. Granted, sometimes I will put batteries in a bucket and tie off a rope to drag up later if needed, but labor does not always think ahead, or 'that is what an apprentice is for' that still costs money.
Then there is the resale value, where you almost cannot give away a brushed battery tool unless the buyer knows little about tools. Besides Ryobi deals that could go away, extra batteries are not cheap. Even I have collected those cheap 4amp Ryobi batteries for lights as about the only Ryobi tool that holds up in a commercial usage environment.
Now, on corded tools, there is no rush to convert to brushless that for now, costs more to build and on the surface, not much advantage for a tool that already does the job as long the outlet has power. But, if one lets the carbon brushes wear down to the point the metal retainer contacts the armature, that tool is basically junk. And with multiple users, that happens too often.
The conclusion is yes, I am ready for brushless everything and happy to pay the extra $10 to $15 when brushes cost $10 or so delivered for maintenance before the tool is ruined. If you are an occasional user and buy the cheapest tools you can, then disregard the above. Those tools are already throwaway tools and typically priced accordingly.
PS: "Expert" is very, very subjective and objective.
