Once you use this you'll never want to use any other Jig saw but this one
I already had a jigsaw, so I stashed this one away for later use. I'm going to try another brand. I won't be buying another. I bought the largest 18 volt XRP kit DeWalt had to offer and got this saw with it. When I finally took it out to use it, it didn't take long to figure out the blade wouldn't stay in the saw. Good luck. I sent it back to DeWalt and I guess they fixed it, but the saw still won't hold a blade.
I love the cordless option. All my projects are getting done so quickly and painlessly that I'm having to find more stuff to do with my free time. It is smooth and quiet and feels really comfortable in my hands. Years of using cheap tools. I recently bought this tool, as I am slowly replacing the cheap power tools I bought when I was younger.
The adjustments are simple and quick. I used it the same day and it blew me away. Never again tripping over power cords is a really nice thing. I am falling in love with DeWalt cordless tools. The quick-action blade release is so nice after years of old tools that require a special tool and lots of time to replace/swap blades.
From his perspective, please continue reading.Overall I am impressed with the design of the tool. This tool compliments the variety of 18 volt Dewalt tools I'm using. I would definitely recommend this tool.Way to go Dewalt. I bought this as a LATE birthday present for my husband. The only minor issue is that it was a little difficult to insert blades the first time.
From my perspective, it worked well and allowed us to finish the shutters we made for the house. It was comfortable and easy to use. It's a far cry from the old jigsaws. The cut was precise and stable.
I think it may be a good saw if I ever get it out of the DeWalt repair center. I think if I ever get it fixed I will like it. When I received the saw it had a defective trigger, and the blade would not stay in the chuck. It has been in the shop since I received it and they say they can't parts (3 weeks).
