This is a very good jigsaw. Easy blade removal too. I have many Ridgid tools and they are normally a bit heavier than other cordless tools. The jigsaw seems to be lighter and more balanced than the average Ridgid Cordless selection.

Nice. But crooked blade chamber runs left

This is a very powerful saw. Used it recently to cut 3/4″ thick oak board and it zipped right thru.

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.

Used it about a dozen time and handled good, it felt good would buy again. This would be the 5th Ridgid tool I have gotten and everyone of them has preformed great

I bought this as a gift for my son in law. He really likes it which I knew he would as I have almost all of Ridgid cordless tools and then some. Which I really like. they are dependable and get the job done.

Got this tool after watching an instructional video where it was being used. I am very impressed. After having several corded jigsaws, this is my first encounter with a cordless model. I honestly believe that it is more powerful than the corded models I have used. It’s not overly weighty, and is easy to manipulate. 4 stars instead of 5 because it doesn’t come with any type of blade.

Works great – just as expected -a little heavy if you use it for a long time
Jeremie Abbott (verified owner) –

Better than I hoped for. Easy to use, even though I’m not well versed in tool use in general. Lots of features.
Sydni Heidenreich (verified owner) –
It’s a Rigid. Going to work great. Needs a laser.
Hazle Hilpert (verified owner) –
Haven’t used it much yet but just the fact that you lose the cord makes the saw more maneuverable. Ridgid tools come with a great warranty as well

I like the High Quality feel of this Jigsaw, the adjustments for close radiuses is a very useful adjustment
Tia Rosenbaum (verified owner) –
This was given to me to review from a friend and then I loved it so much I purchased my own today. I love the line start mode and the ease of installing the blade along with all the other features on this saw. Its heavy duty and exudes quality with a life time warranty this one you can’t pass up it is a must have in the wood working shop.

I bought my last jigsaw over 40 years ago. It finally gave up. I bought this new rigid jigsaw to cut around the railing posts on a 3500 square-foot deck I am rebuilding. What a difference 40 years makes. This jigsaw is very quiet. With the adjustable oscillating blade it is easy to cut through a variety of materials with ease. I have done quite a bit but have yet to charge the 4 mA battery that came with it. I recommend this tool.
