Their 18v battery also fits about a dozen other tools (I bought the kit a few years back when it was on sale).
Their sawzall is sloppy but works great on PVC sprinkler repair, I have dad's old corded craftsmen jigsaw for fine work.
The circular saw is weak but does a good job on plywood, I have a corded Makita for 2x4 and a screw drive Milwaukee that is a boat anchor so I never use it.

The 1/2 drill that cam with the kit is great, and a 18v flashlight came with the kit.

Sure Ryobi is not professional grade but I'm just a weekend warrior and do light stuff around the house and not going to spend big $$$
