My entire set up is all ridgid and i opted for the jigsaw after my corded saw quit on me. This was just what i needed. Perfect to add to the collection. Would recommend in a heart beat

I would have awarded 5 stars except the blower function was not powerful enough to clear debris from the sight line of my cut. I was cutting composite decking so the debris may be heavier than normal sawdust but for my purposes the blower was a serious disappointment.

Have only used it for trimming up some cement board so far, but the variable speed is great and def convenient to not have a cord. Seems to have plenty of power!

Works exceptionally well. The economics of the tool are perfect, it is balanced well and the battery does not impede its use.

I wish there were more choices out there. Also, maybe this tool needs a specialty battery to balance it out better.
