GREAT Saw, can be used in lieu of a circular saw and can cut through anything ! But the blades take practice changing ! [Posted on 2007-09-08]
GREAT Saw, can be used in lieu of a circular saw and can cut through anything ! But the blades take practice changing !

The secret is the blades and Bosch now makes the blades available for different manufacturer jig and saber saws.

Let me say there has never been any piece of wood or board this thing hasn't been able to rip through, I've even cut down mid size tree and the stump with the rough wood blade.

The variable speed trigger is smooth so you can use this saw for fine craft work too.

Just like every other reviewer, I have to reiterate the blades are tedious to change, it is a tool less system that has to be finessed. TIP: When it arrives and you've made a few cuts, practice removing and replacing the blades until you have the routine down. This is important because the blade will warble if it isn't tight, this happened to us but no one was injured.

If you already have a nice jigsaw and want the same cutting power, see if Bosch is offering their blades for your model, the bi-opposition teeth design is the real secret.

Great Jigsaw [Posted on 2007-10-10]
Best jigsaw I have ever used. Older designs tend to result in blade wobble--not this one. I tried straight and curved cuts in a variety of materials--it cut fast and with excellent precision and virtually no splintering (and I didn't even use the anti-splintering guard that comes with it). I made a number of cuts against a straight edge to see how accurate the unit was. It was virtually perfect--no measurable blade wobble. I'm very impressed with this unit. Bosh makes quality tools in general and this is a great one.

I love this saw. [Posted on 2008-05-28]
Yes I agree with the other reviews. This is a great saw. I got this reconditioned jig saw and a reconditioned skil circular saw for a 700 sq ft flooring project. I'm using this jig saw more and more. Blade changing is easy. I'm so impressed with the quality of this Bosch that I've ordered a reconditioned miter saw.

Bosch has always made the best jigsaw,and this one is no exception.Love the blade change ,smooth run,it's heavier than the old one's,but, has more power.Great tool,and, it's not made in china!

Seller Alert!!! [Posted on 2008-06-11]
This review is solely related to this seller, CPO Bosch, not the product. The item description clearly indicates that 3 blades are included. When I got the product, no blades were included. After four e-mails and a month of waiting I have still received no response. I've tried their amazon e-mail address and customer support through their website. Nothing. I haven't tried out the saw yet because I was hoping I wouldn't have to go out and buy new blades, but I know I won't get any help from this seller if anything is wrong. Luckily, the tool itself has a factory warranty. Bottom line, take into account the additional cost of saw blades (those Bosch progressor blades can get expensive) and the lack of ANY customer support when you decide to purchase from this seller.
