Goes well with hot glue projects, not with screws or "real" jobs. [Posted on 2008-01-19] I bought this saw because it looks very handy; like a jig saw for tight places. Great concept, but I was disappointed. The saw lacks power, has no variable speed, and has an overall cheap feel about it. Cutting through 5/8 cabinet face was about all it could handle. Bottom line, this tool is well suited for the uber-scrapbooker, not the construction worker.
Great little saw for small jobs [Posted on 2008-05-04] I have a full power, corded Milwaukee Sawzall reciprocating saw, but it's just too big, too heavy, and too corded for the smaller jobs.
The VPX saw isn't a threat to a Sawzall. It can only handle small jobs. It'll choke up on a wet 2x4 or -- horrors -- a 2x4 with a nail in it. So don't use it for that.
Instead, it's great for cutting a small section of PVC or copper pipe. Or pruning a dead branch off a tree. Or a 1x2 or 1x4 or garden stakes. All those little jobs that you really don't want to pull out your handsaw and need a little light help.
The VPX charges well and I'm happy with it -- since I know its limitations.
