DealTeacher's grade for the RIDGID 18V brushless 12" chainsaw (tool only): B (Buy now). It's $149 at The Home Depot, down from a $189 tag (21% off). Price last checked Oct 27, 2026. This one doesn't go on sale much, so $149 is worth a look. Deal hunters say it hasn't been this low in more than 18 months, and nobody's spotted it cheaper. It's $40 off the usual $189, but it's tool only, so if you don't already have a RIDGID 18V battery and charger, add those to the math before you buy.
