I purchased this under a Makita promotion with two batteries. I own two Festool jigsaws one with a top handle and theother a barrel grip. I have been “cutting the cord” as much as possible and wanted an affordable saw and I know Makitamakes excellent tools. This saw actually cuts smoother then my Festool but admittedly does not have all of the features like a zero clearance blade guard and dust collection. Having said that it is hands down the best cordless jigsaw for themoney. I’m sure their brushless version is more powerful but unless use are hogging through eight quarter maple thenI don’t see a need to spend the additional hundred dollars.

The saw works excellent. I have several Makita 18 volt tools but this is my first cordless jig saw. So much less trouble not getting a cord to plug an A.C. powered saw in.
Amparo Lang (verified owner) –
Easy to use, not much vibration. I am glad I bought it
Johann Corkery (verified owner) –
It performs as a PRO!
Loren Hoppe (verified owner) –
Like the saw but removed the clear plate around the blade because it blocked the view of the line as sawdust built up..
Bernie Blanda (verified owner) –
A little heavier than I expected but works amazing. Very happy with this purchase.
Rebeca Goodwin (verified owner) –
Perfect weight and balance and performance. Needs a blower to clear the sawdust to complete the package.
Britney Towne (verified owner) –
Great jigsaw. I really like the light and easy load blade.
Belle Deckow (verified owner) –
Powerful and sturdy, this is another great addition to our Makita battery tools. I replaced an older, corded jigsaw, and can see a huge improvement.
Dorothea Sporer (verified owner) –
My husband loves it! Works great
Carlie Ferry (verified owner) –
As a trim carpenter I cope my.base trim with jigsaw. This works as good if not better than my corded saw.
Euna Rodriguez (verified owner) –
Much better quality than my plug in jigsaw and still has plenty of power
Manuela Crooks (verified owner) –
I am a professional contractor and this unit is def underpowered. It just does not have the speed and cutting power needed for denser woods or even 2x material. It also does NOT have the air blower feature for clearing off the dust at the blade…which is a frustration. If you are a homeowner looking for a well priced, battery operated jigsaw than this is a good unit. It is a quality build but it has its limitations. I would def recommend the BRUSHLESS motor versions for much better performance!
Payton O’Keefe (verified owner) –
Great saw. Powerful and easy to use. Best I have ever had
Sharon Schneider (verified owner) –
A nice addition to my Makita set. A little heavier than I expected. The trigger is variable speed which I don’t think I read in the description. They’ve improved the blade release also.
Ivory Fadel (verified owner) –
This is one of the best jigsaws I ever had. Well built and powerful. 4 stars cause it’s rather a heavy tool.
Kayley Ankunding (verified owner) –
Fast delivery great price and quality jigsaw that works great even in the weather. So far Used to cut pt stair jacks! Very happy! Great tools make your life easier!
Dedric Botsford (verified owner) –
Another great precision-engineered quality product from Makita, and best of all — no cord! 🙂
Letha Casper (verified owner) –
What I was looking for
Mariam O’Keefe (verified owner) –
IMHO, this is a GREAT tool. It has a nice, hefty, quality feel to it, and it isn’t “too” heavy with battery in place.I purchased it in order to cut some 1″ X 3″ hard (and I mean HARD!) wood at an angle. The adjustable sole plate worked to perfection. On straight cuts, the blade didn’t “wobble” or “veer”, so my straight cuts were….STRAIGHT! As far as I know this is the only 18V MAKITA that has a blade light, and the light made the job that much easier. This saw also has a “quick blade release”, so the blades are not the “usual’ jig-saw blade. They have a “T”-shaped shank that locks them in with the quick release…a NICE feature.Finally, this saw is NOT a “brushless” tool. All of the others in the 18V line ARE. Personally, I don’t consider this to be a problem, but I’m an “Old Guy”, and I am used to “Old Guy Tools”.In summary, a nice tool and a nice, versatile, addition to my 18V set.
