18 volt batteries are as good as wired tools

Compact and powerful. Great bargain price too. Been using 3 or 4 months no issues, double trigger is a bonus. 5*****

I own several Makita power tools. I also own a rather large and heavy battery-powered reciprocating saw. I am so glad I bought this tool. It is light weight, well built (of course because it is a Makita tool), easy to handle and operate. For its compact design, it works surprising well.

If you're looking for a compact battery-operated reciprocating saw, this is what you need. There was a bit of vibration to my hand when I cut about 50 six-penny nails that fasten the roof plywood to the facia but this tool made short work of that process. It is a great tool all around and the standard reciprocating blades will fit with only one drawback, the shoe needs to be tightened with the supplied hex wrench.

This is the weakest cutting tool I've ever used. I really can't figure out what this is for. It is unable to cut through wood. I've tried different blades and batteries but there's no denying this saw is completely worthless. Makita makes good impact drivers but this is complete garbage.

Ya I can see how people would complain about the power of it but it is for those hard to get places and things you don't need all that force with I personally love it it's just what I wanted and could not be happier

It's not bad, but very low power. For the size and weight, it's perfect for small jobs, but don't expect it to replace your real sawzall

RPMs are low. Power delivered by the motor is low. BUT I like it. It is ergonomically great to hold on to but with all that plastic body I expected more to be delivered. This is a great tool Makita could consider putting a more powerful hungry motor that eats batteries and gets more work done. The body of this tool has the room to do this. I love the two method trigger switch method the tool deploys, that is very innovative! Both are very safe options.Overall this tool could be better. Milwaukee's Sawzalls have this tool beaten down in any race.A good tool but could be great if Makita took another look.

Works fine for small type projects, but you would not want to be cutting pipe all day with his thing. Its great to pull out and blast the odd project off which is what I bought it for

absolutely not intended for professional usethe unit is certainly compact, light weight and easy to usebut it lacks powerthat combined with its tiny draw distance, youll spend all day cutting just one 2X4and after getting through just one 2X4, the unit heats up a lot, like, a lot a lotwould not recommend for professional use

I am most certainly a fan of the Makita 18v LXT lineup. I own MANY of said tools. I purchased this one as of late because the larger full-size recip saw is sometimes too heavy or large for certain applications. On first glance, this tool is made very well. Makita is top-of-the-line in power tools, so this is expected. The weight and balance are both acceptable, and are the best I could imagine they can be. There are two caveats that I can see, however. The first being the stroke length of the cut. It is small. It is similar to that of a 12v recip saw. That means twice as much time to make a cut as it's full-size bigger brother. It also means that the likeliness of vibration in the object being cut is increased, because the blade is making a short stroke versus a large stroke. This can make the cut even slower, and also be more of a pain to hold onto. Since this tool is made for one-handed use, the likely scenario involves holding the object in the other hand. You get where I'm going with this.My second dislike is the ergonomics of the triggers. I am a tall man with rather large hands. It is rather awkward to use the top (barrel) trigger. The diameter of the housing is just not conducive to good control and proper trigger actuation. The rear handle mounted trigger is a different story. It is rather easy to use, as would be expected since this is the normal location and shape/size for the rest of their tools. The problem with this trigger lies in the weight distribution. It is obviously more awkward to hold up the front weight of the saw from the rear of the tool. This makes for a better two-handed use. All-in-all this is a decent tool, but I would likely not purchase it again.
