Based off the reviews, it's too small to be considered compact, but too big to be a micro multi-tool for a key ring. Would be fine for a kids first multi-tool, but Leatherman, Victorinox, or Gerber might last a lifetime.

good for a junk drawer... when you need to fix something but don't want to walk to the garage for your toolbox
This looks just like random generic $5 multitools I have purchased to stash around, except with the Ryobi logo. They're completely usable, not Leathermans, might break if you try too hard. IOW, $10 only seems like a deal if you want the Ryobi logo.

I was a kid who lost Victorinoxen and Leathermen; still bothers me, can't recommend.
When did Ryobi become a good brand? 10 years ago if you showed up to a jobsite with a Ryobi anything, you wouldn't be taken seriously. Milwaukee, Makita, DeWalt where the big 3. Woodworkers & high end cabinet guys (not framers) would be seen with panasonic drills but nobody else would use panasonic. Always thought that was strange.

My guess is when Ryobi was sold to TTI (the maker of Milwaukee), but there are always a lot of haters out there. Very similar to the hate harbor freight icon vs snap on gets. Ryobi will always be 1 grade lower than Milwaukee, but still sufficient 99% of the population.

The cordless products are always pretty good. A drill/driver can drill into wood, soft metal, ceramic all with the right bits just like any other brand. It just might do it slower and you might need to change batteries more often. But with how inexpensive they are compared to the competitors, even brushless, the value is insane, especially as a homeowner. They also have a huge variety of tools now, ranging from pressure washers, stick vacuums, electric coolers, and 40v tools.
Also, there are sights like directtoolsoutlet.com that sell factory blemished and refurbished tools for even less.

Rigid is the 1 grade lower than Milwaukee, Ryobi is 2 grades lower, especially comparing most of the project farm reviews.
