I have had some dealings with cheap jig saws, so I didn't really expect much from this thing. I was expecting a blade that wouldn't hold tight, wandered around the work surface. Not enough power, and a whole slew of other problems. This saw worked extremely well for the price. It clamped the blade like it was full of this months rent money, had plenty of power and a long enough stroke to cut through two sides of a hollow core door in one pass. I have also used this to trim the handle of an axe after hanging it. The motor is powerful enough to push the blade through hardwood as well. If you are already in the Bosch ecosystem, then definitely pick up this saw.

Am a third generation builder and some of the few corded tools we still run are my fathers Swiss made Bosch jigsaws from the 80's and 90's. I've tried probably a dozen cordless models from Bosch and other manufacturers and nothing has ever come close to delivering the accuracy and cut quality of those saws until now. Firstly this is a beautifully built and assembled tool made in Hungary that reminds me of tools made 20 years ago before everything was made in China and built to be disposable. The trigger is smooth and spectacular with a unique progressive take up, probably one of the most important features of a D handle saw. The saw has digital speed selection, but it's practically unessesary with how good the trigger is. The saw cuts as fast as a corded model, and the cut quality can rival much more expensive corded units as well. Nothing else I've tried in the cordless realm can even come close. Maybe the Festool Carvex, but that still lacks the power of this saw. Even cutting a piece of 6/4 hard maple with a "speed wood" blade left and almost track saw clean cut. Still surprised how long it took Bosch to come out with a proper cordless model, but I'm glad to say they finally have.
