Verdict
This RYOBI AG4031G Angle Grinder is a budget-friendly choice for small, occasional projects, but it's plagued by overheating and usability issues. It’s recommended for those who need a mid-range tool for infrequent use rather than extensive, precision tasks. If you’re searching for a higher performance grinder, an investment in a more powerful model might be necessary for better results and reliability.
