Seems to sink in more than the cheapest Ryobi plugin, but it's MUCH more convenient. The run time is long, but again you can wait for it to pick up speed again, or tasks can take longer because the tool is running slower - I see that as the biggest problem with sanding masonry. I think I'd say if you grind things you probably want a wired model. I bought "just tools", the cheapest I could find in a Revain item, and I'm not sure if that's the way it should be or not. this way, but the key to change the blades was not included. However, it did come with a giant Allen key which doesn't appear to be related to this tool. Not sure what's going on there, but I need to split the blade changing tools between my grinders as I didn't get it with this one.
