Is the Ryobi 18V table saw worth it over a corded saw?

It is worth it if portability and battery convenience matter more than raw power. A corded 10-inch saw costs less per unit of cutting power and handles thick hardwood better.

What size battery do I need?

Use at least a 4.0Ah High Capacity pack for ripping; 2.0Ah compact packs drain fast under load. Larger packs add runtime but also weight.

What is the maximum depth of cut?

The 8-inch blade gives roughly 2-1/4 inches at 90 degrees, less at 45 degrees. That covers most trim and 1x stock but not thick dimensional lumber.

Does it come with a blade and battery?

Most kits include a blade but no battery or charger, since it is sold as a bare tool. Check the listing before buying if you need a pack.

Can it run a dado stack?

The saw is not set up for a full dado stack; the arbor and throat plate limit it. Use a router for dados instead.

Ryobi bare tools typically drop during holiday sales and One+ battery promotions. Watch for kit bundles that include a battery at a similar price.

Our take on the Ryobi 18V Brushless Cordless 8 in. Table Saw

The Ryobi 18V Brushless Cordless 8 in. Table Saw is a benchtop saw that runs on Ryobi's 18V One+ batteries instead of a wall outlet, so you can rip and crosscut on a job site, driveway or backyard without a cord. The brushless motor and 8-inch blade keep it compact and light for one-person carry, but it trades some depth of cut and power against corded 10-inch saws. It suits trim work, small rips and quick cuts rather than heavy furniture or deck building.
