Direct Tools Factory Outlet in Cincinnati

[JoeyGee]

We just got back from drving in from Florida yesterday and we stopped by the outlet stores in Cincinnati. I saw a store called Direct Tools Factory Outlet--it looked like an HD outlet with all Ryobi and Rigid, and maybe a few other brands thrown in.

I had no time to browse, since the store closed at 6, and I was there at 5:45 . They appeared to have some sort of July 4th sale. I think they had the Rigid DP well under $200. If I had the time and room in our van, I may have looked more into it.

Anyone familiar with this store?

I am very familiar with it. They stock Ryobi, Ridgid, some Homelite outdoor stuff, some Milwaukee, and a few other brands. Typically refurbished stuff but some of the things are brand new. The discounts are usually good, but I have seen the Ridgid and Ryobi stuff on sale at Home Depot for much less. There is one between Cincinnati and Dayton and one between Cincinnati and Columbus. They also participate in the VIP clubs of each outlet, so you can usually get another 15% off.

Great Prices

I was at Home Depot looking for a mobile stand made by Ridgid for my 12 sliding mitre saw (also made by Ridgid).
Home Depot wanted $180.00 for it.

I stopped at Tools Direct and bought it for $105.00 (if I remember right).
Under the stand it says "refurbished" which I don't understand - what is there to refurbish? There is nothing to wear out, etc..

Bottom line - shop there and save money.

Thanks, I may have to check it out again if I have a reason to go down that way.
