Whether you're a new DIYer or an experienced home improvement pro, scoring a discount on power tools is always welcome. But what's even better (and rarer)? Getting brand-new tools for free. But with Home Depot's current Ryobi Days promotion, you can do just that.

Here's how it works: Buy Ryobi's One+ 18V Lithium-Ion Starter Kit (starting at $99, down from $228 at the time of writing) and get a select Ryobi One+ tool for free. The kit includes a 2Ah battery, a 4Ah battery, and a charger. If you need even more battery capacity, you can upgrade to a kit that includes three batteries ($179, reduced from $362) or five batteries ($179, originally $428). As far as the free tools go, you've got almost a dozen products to choose from, including the One+ 18V Cordless Compact Workshop Blower, the One+ 18V Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool, and the One+ 18V Cordless Wet/Dry Hand Vacuum. All 300 tools in the One+ range (including these ones) are compatible with the 18V One+ batteries.

So, is the starter kit worth the money? From the reviews on Home Depot's website, most customers seem to be satisfied with it. Multiple shoppers commented on the batteries' high capacities, and others mentioned that they charge quickly. Others weren't as impressed, saying that the batteries died fairly soon after purchase. Several reviewers also wrote that their free tool never arrived with the batteries.

One of the reasons that Ryobi is a good power tool brand for home improvement projects is its diverse range of products. In fact, the company's One+ range includes about 300 tools (but only 11 are included as part of this deal). Still, each one is rated highly on the Home Depot website, so it can be hard to choose just one. If you need help, here are a few ideas based on your interests.
