Why Did I Wait So Long? [Posted on 2008-04-15]
I often have to cut wood flush, and for years relied on a combination of circular saws, sabre saws, and hand saws. It was an ordeal. I bought this saw over a year ago, but it sat quietly in the box... until yesterday. Holy cow! What a difference it makes! Why did I wait so long? Five stars! Fast! Easy! Efficient! Great! No complaints at all!

Marvelous saw! Well worth the money! [Posted on 2008-04-17]
After the blood, sweat and tears spent on hand sawing two door jams (with 25 more to go), I went to Lowes and bought this saw. It cuts the jams like butter, I did not have those problems such as "vibration" or "too much power" as reported by some reviwers, I find it well worth the money especially when Lowes had the 15% off on power tools that weekend.

This tool really works. It is fast and easy to use and clean up is easy. It cuts flush next to work and is smooth with the fine toothed blade.

Bosch Saves the Day [Posted on 2008-05-15]
I only had four door frames to install trim to, but would have had to add another six hours to the job to peel off the old baseboard just to cut back to allow for the new trim. Not having to re-attach, caulk and paint the baseboard, which may have included repair in some cases, saved a lot of time. The tool took a bit of adjusting to for this application, but well worth the money! A must-have if you are not replacing baseboards.

I'm in the process of laying laminate flooring in a rental property. All goes well until I hit the doorways then everything comes to a halt as I struggle to hand cut the door jambs. By the time I'm done I'm nearly conked out. Well, I had to get this thing quick to save my sanity and it works as advertised.

Some tips I feel I should give. 1. Keep firm control of this thing. At times it can "run" away from you. 2. Use the lowest speed that give an adequate cut in order to avoid number 1.

Great tool that has made my day.
