Latest Reviews	Economical, compact, lightweight. Rating: 5 It is very compact and lightweight. Perfect, especially for small jobs and tight areas where a 2 handed jigsaw won't go! by crapreporter on 2020-09-01T17:00:00 compact saw Rating: 5 Just the right size for the job. Tough little saw by Robert on 2020-04-15T17:00:00 Awesome product Rating: 5 Very good. by Fudorge on 2014-02-03T16:00:00 Good light duty saw Rating: 5 I bought this for light duty sawing such as cardboard and 1/4 in plywood. Works great for this type of work. by Blueraynut on 2017-01-11T16:00:00 Good little saw, does what it is designed to do. Rating: 5 No review by SKIDAD on 2017-10-16T17:00:00 Cordless Jig Saw, hand held like a drill. Rating: 4 This is definitely a light-duty saw, but perfect for my use. It is advertised as a Reciprocating Saw, but the box calls it a Jig saw. It uses standard jigsaw blades, as per the box. It comes with one small blade and I just cut a branch about 3/4 inches in diameter with no problem. It is hand-held like an electric drill, so it can be used at any angle. It's also light weight and very easy to use. There is a safety mechanism to avoid an accidental trigger pull. The charger is separate and plugs into the base of the handle. The only reason i didn't give it 5 stars is because the face plate around the blade does not allow a branch to be cut flush against the tree trunk as I was hoping for. My carpenter friend suggests that the face plate be placed flat on the cutting surface to avoid broken blades. Heavier duty blades can be purchased at about $2 each. I'm happy with the saw and would recommend it for light use or for crafts. by ForTheWorld on 2016-10-17T17:00:00 Disappointed Rating: 1 Brought this and it doesnot even charge. Returned it May been a lemon the one i received Im not trying another one by 4everagamecockfan on 2014-02-24T16:00:00 Don't buy it Rating: 1 I think this is the first review charger it per instructions does'nt work. Will be returning by Goose on 2020-06-19T17:00:00 missing scrolling blade Rating: 1 Missing scrolling blade, box was open, doesn't charge, missing instructions by Mercedes on 2020-02-14T16:00:00 Rating: 5 by Karen on 2020-09-29T17:00:00	The Skill Jigsaw is a must have! Rating: 5 The Skill Jigsaw worked great, it did everything I needed it to do. The the laser guide was a real plus! by jeanne on 2020-08-21T17:00:00 always been happy with my purchases from walmart Rating: 5 Its not your products that I have a issue with. Fedex delivery is no good for this area. Once the packages get to Grove City, oh, it leaves and go back to grove city 2 or 3 times before it is really on its way to me. Then it is dropped off at the Post office 4 miles from my house. by justsurfing on 2014-07-24T17:00:00 Good saw. Rating: 5 I had an older reciprocating jigsaw, which is the only one I've had to compare this one to. The laser light does not seem to be helping my cuts as to the accuracy of straight lines, but I wasn't banking on the light anyhow! I like the speed, and flexibility of this saw. I just need to learn how to accurately cut a straight line when cross cutting! Definitely would recommend. by RockwallShopper on 2016-12-26T16:00:00 Rating: 5 Exccellent , great priced ,quality saw.... by robert on 2020-04-07T17:00:00 great Rating: 5 great by lplp on 2017-01-19T16:00:00 Great saw for homeowners. Rating: 5 This saw replace a Skil jigsaw that was 30 years old. I didn't want to spend 150 dollars on a high end saw that I will only used 10 times a years. This is a very good saw. Select the correct blade and this will cut neatly and quickly. I bought the Skil variety pack at one of the big home stores. I have used it on 3/4" red oak and 3/4" plywood, no problems. Accepts U or T shank blades. by Briax on 2015-04-07T17:00:00 Rating: 5 Some reviews say the laser is useless but I disagree. I have low vision and the laser is very helpful to me. I work with plywood a lot and this saw finally allows me to cut a straight line without a guide or rip fence. The tool less blade change is a great feature. No more hex key to keep track of. The motor along with the orbital action is plenty strong for cutting thicker stock. You can spend more money but you won't find a better jig saw by uncajurl on 2018-02-14T16:00:00 Good item Rating: 4 Works great for small projects around the house by sjcarrell on 2014-07-12T17:00:00 Nice jigsaw for the price Rating: 4 I find the laser not as useful as just a regular light.I wish it had a light instead of the laser light.Other than that ,a great jigsaw for the price. by Dugndeep on 2014-09-22T17:00:00 You get what you paid for Rating: 3 You get what you paid for. Very light usage. The trigger went after 4 years. Not worth fixing. I bought a different brand. by on 2020-10-05T17:00:00
