Overview

At 2.2 pounds, Ryobi's R18PF-0 sander runs on the brand's 18V ONE+ battery platform, with an operating speed listed at 630 RPM, light enough for extended one handed use.

Sharing batteries with the rest of Ryobi's 18V ONE+ lineup is the main draw here, since it avoids buying a separate battery system for one tool. The light 2.2 pound body favors control over long sessions rather than raw material removal.
