love the size, love that I can use just one hand or two. However if it had just a little more power it would be great.

Love this saw. Over 65 female, saw was light enuf to handle easily, powerful enuf with right blades to cut 3″ steel pipe, 3/4 in rebar and half inch bolts. Case is 1/4 the size and weight of traditional recip saws, but plenty of room for saw, cord and a case of blades.

Bought primarily to remove slats from pallets. Perfect tool for the job. Cut through the nails s needed. Size let me control the tool with one hand so to use the other to support the pallet. Don’t forget to register!!!

I purchased this saw over 2 years ago and found that it works acceptably with a limited number of saws. The problem is too short a stroke when I am pruning with the saw. It would be nice to have a longer stroke to allow use on more types of blades. I have a Makita saws-all with a 1 inch stroke and it works well on a variety of blades. Perhaps a compromise with a 3/4 inch stroke would work better. The low mass of this saw is nice for one handed use however it is very responsive to the driven blade resulting in a loss of half the stroke length. So it takes for ever t saw through something whether it be wood or metal. This is tough when pruning using one hand.

No assembly of tool required just easy attachment of blade, plug in and get to cutting. Register your product for live time warranty. Can’t beat that and the price.

This tool is easy to use and handle. But still strong for its size. I’m impressed.

I bought this for my husband here normally likes only Milwaukee tools but he really liked this bc Of its littler size it’s easier for him to use at work. It has a carrying bag with it too!

I’ve had this for less than three weeks for home use. One handed and light weight. variable speed for ease in starting cut. great tool!

The saw worked very well.

Unpack, insert blade, plug-in, and GO! Oh yes, afterwards read the instructions. (Typical man)The variable speed avoids overheating the blade and object being sawn. The lighter weight is less exhausting. This is the fifth Rigid tool I have purchased. You can guess the reasons why.

I am reshingling sections of my house and I have been using a shingle nail puller or mini hack saw. I used this saw with a 10″ metal blade and it cleanly cuts the nails. The saw is light enough to use with one hand. The one draw back is the variable speed is the trigger vs a dial setting
