Accurate and Ruthless
Rating: 5
I have had my Bosch Sawzall for probably 15 years. It obviously has the power and ability to do any demolition type work, but what has surprised me the most is how accurate and careful you can actually be with this saw. I have actually (I don't recommend it, but I pulled it off) cut openings in lath and plaster walls with this saw that looked like they were done with a razor. If you hold it right and go slow, you can be very accurate and delicate if needed. I have abused this saw over the years. I have attacked huge tree roots in muddy holes out of frustration, when I couldn't get anything else to get a large stump loose. As well as every other task you can ask of a reciprocating saw. It's well balanced, strong, and never gives up.

Really powerful
Rating: 5
This saw was given to me for mother's day 2 years ago. It is very powerful and not so heavy that I can't use it for several hours at a time. Considering it is labeled, vibration control, I thought it would viberate less... but still way better than the saw I was using before. I am very happy with this tool.

Great all around tool, cuts through everything!

I purchased this saw to handle a lot of tight thick branches and roots that a chainsaw is not the best tool for the job. This saw cuts wood, metal and plastic with easy and almost no vibration.

Typical Bosch!

This saw is excellent. It has more than enough power and is of good quality. I buy a lot of Bosch tools because of these reasons. I wish they would include a hard case with more of their products though. The bags can't be cleaned easily and don't protect the tools as well.

Reciprocating Saw Cuts every thing.

I've used the Bosch corded reciprocating saw to cut down framing and walls and old decks during remodeling projecrts. I've used it to cut steel and pvc pipes. I've used it to cut old exhaust systems off F250 trucks. I've used it to cut off deer leg bones and necks. It always cuts fast and never fails. Every handy person should own a Bosch reciprocating saw.

Great Saw!

I had no trouble using this saw to cut through wooden siding on my shed. The vibration was very light, the weight perfect for my hands to hold and guide. I went through the old very harden wood like butter! I would recommend this electric reciprocating saw to all.

I have used most brands of recips, but I love this Bosch! It is smooth and comfortable to use. I find it a little heavy but that's a good thing. Very powerful and doesnt get hot under hard use. Comes in a nice bag that makes carrying it with accessories quick and easy

Bosch please bring back the case!!!!

I have been a contractor in Michigan for 20 years. This is the smoothest saw on the market! I would recommend to anyone! But I wish Bosch knew how important a case was to the guys who work out of a truck 6 days a week. I take very good care of my tools. But that bag is complete garbage! I work in snow rain ice. Gets bounced around in back of truck. I will pay more. I bet your warranty department and has replaced parts and saws that it would not had to if it was in a case! Again great tool! Please give us a case! I depend on these tools and so does my wife and kids!!

Bought this saw based on the description of a 8 lb tool. Tool I received weighs in at 9.6 pound without a blade. I was willing to trade the longer warranty for a lighter tool, but this tool weighs basically the same as the others in its class on the market. I will be returning this and purchasing something else.
