Very easy to use and definitely a budget tool. Good value for money but one negative point – blade tends to bend sometimes, leaving you with inaccurate cuts. Otherwise great tool to have around
Almost everything is perfect, until I went to put it together. When I opened the saw blade holder I was confused. It looked like it was supposed to have 2 blades in it, but it only had 1. So I looked through the paperwork, and that showed 2. So I feel slightly cheated.
Already had one which after many years have up, but couldn’t be bothered getting it repaired, had the opportunity to buy one at a bargain price, excellent replacement !
Bought to replace an old black and decker that broke after a few years limited use. I chose this one for the features i especially like the way it can blow dust away so you can maintain a straight line. Used it to cut laminate flooring with matching bosch 101BR blades it made the task quick and simple.
Light, lots of functions and a decent guarantee, recommended.

Bought this after struggling with an electrical reciprocating saw to chop up old decking.
This went through it in record time. Was able to cut down an entire yard of decking planks into 2 foot lengths in under an hour of cutting.
The blade fitting/replacement system instructions could be clearer though, as it takes significant effort to release a blade. I understand it needs to be secure, but the single illustration for removal suggests a much greater degree of movement of the blade holder than actually occurs, so you place more effort than required on the blade, increasing chance of cutting your fingers.
Lovely jigsaw. My first ever jigsaw so I have no others for comparison, though it made light work of cutting straight lines, corners, and so light and sharp. Really nice ergonomic design, so easy to control the speed, and just a doddle to use. Thank you Amazon!
This is really helpful in allowing you to see where you are cutting.
Great to use, powerful enough for all jobs so far. Obviously the thicker the wood the slower the cut. Fits nicely in the hand, easy blade change, nice case and not too heavy. It’ll do for me! No complaints. Definitely recommend!
Great little product. Precision and Quality all in one. Another BoSCH item to add to my DYI collection of tools. Should last for years.
I’ve wanted a jigsaw for years and never got round to buying one, using a hand saw instead. Oh why didn’t I buy one earlier – just zipped through my wood in seconds. Would have taken me ages (and a sore arm) to cut with hand saw. The minimal vibration is excellent and this together with the blowing away of sawdust so that you can see your cutting line are two of the reasons I bought this model – plus of course the named of Bosch and the price. Blades are easy to get as well.

Having mis managed hand saws for years making a bad job of it..invested in this product and WOW my DIY prowess excelled. Well down to the tool really but as it cannot talk I will take the credit.
Buy it now for all those amateur DIY jobs and enjoy the difference doing it right first time makes.
This little tool is light but so powerful. Motor didn’t struggle through a whole row of thick tongue snd groove.
It is a bit fiddly to do most things, like blade changes taking the plastic shield off, the plastic guide on the front and the blade holder underneath just too many bits and bobs
I am really happy with the saw, accurate and easy to use. It was a good purchase
Great jigsaw, easy to use and well built. For the price it’s surprising how good it is. Don’t be fooled thinking the ‘green’ bosch tool range is only for the DIYer, they are much more than that. Highly recommended.
Always expect quality from Bosch – and this doesn’t disappoi
Nothing to say, except it is the usual good product from Bosch
Brilliant cuts any kind of wood effortless, haven’t cut metal yet but I think that it will cope.
Extremely good accuracy from this electric saw , was suprised it was so versatile as I have only used a hand saw . Great product .
very easy to use – cuts effortlessly. A fine product by bosch
more supplied blades would have been nice as it only comes with a single blade
build quality is good
Easy to use and get nice accurate lines – straight and curved
I’m only an occasional diyer and wasn’t prepared to spend loads of cash on something that will often sit on a shelf. Used this to shape some plywood for my day-van. Can’t complain at all. It cuts very well and even blows the sawdust away for a clearer view of the cut line. I did think about spending the extra and getting the more powerful version but glad I didn’t. No complaints so far. Comes in a sturdy plastic case and you can leave the blade attached for storage. I love the size of it, really small and light. Great buy.
Excellent saw. Very accurate cuts are easily achieved due to the guide plate. Different blades can be fitted for different materials. The case is very useful too.
Great little jigsaw. Needed it to cut some flooring and did it with ease. Simple to set up and great quality which you would expect from Bosch. Needs a bit of practice to great smooth curves but that’s the same as anything new. Def recommend. It’s a bargain for the price.
Verg good quality cuts with ease and nice and compacy
The jigsaw is light weight and easy to control (for a novice female). I did think it came with a guide to set the distance from the edge of the wood and the angle could be rotated but I was deciphering images to work out the features. Took a bit of getting used to the switch, it was easy to press too much and get more power than I wanted at times.
Easy to use. Light weight, compact and comfortable to hold.

Brilliant tool easy to set up and use cuts and handles grea
Amazing feeling of freedom and power. I was able to build amazing stuff for my cat.
Paid a little more than I planned but very pleased with this Bosch jigsaw. Easy and comfortable to use, quick blade change and very impressive bit of kit.
Easy to use, quick & accurate. I can now tackle more complex DIY projects.
Well worth the money. Only downside is no straight guard u have to buy it seperatly
great wee hand sander. Plug and play pretty much. Comes with a few sanding pads to get you going.
This Jigsaw was a little too easy and had only 1 piece
Great little tool maybe should have had dust bag supplied too
Definitely a must have for your DIY works around the house. It’s easy to use and cut in seconds. I’m very impressed for the price definitely highly recommended.
Great piece of tool , shame Zi didn’t buy this years ago
Great budget jig saw light easy to use and robust would definitely buy again and recommend
Amazing I just loved, but no come with the blades
A very easy piece of kit to handle. Cuts accurately and sharply with out any trouble. Be careful cutting hardwoods as the blades can twist with too much pressure and spoil your precision. Having said that, it works wonders on wood of the correct depth. Delivery was excellent as ever from Amazon and during these difficult times they always come through with courtesy and care. Excellent all round.

Great jig saw, so easy to use and cuts really well.
Bought this with amazon voucher my son gave me for Christmas As i needed to cut some 12 millimeter ply into a curved shape into a couple of bearers. Pleasantly surprised with its performance and how quiet it is. I used the supplied blade for the cut although i had bought a pack of others. I took my time and the finished article was of a good standard. The blade followed the lines i had marked out as long as i didnt try to rush it.
I would recomend this saw to anyone doing DIY projects like me .
Easy to use and powerful enough for most DIY jobs around your house
Have been using this for a year now for DIY. No issues so far! Recommend!
Having been tempted by a jigsaw that looked great and promised everything I couldn’t believe how inaccurate it’s fancy laser cutting guide was; rendering it unusable. In disgust I returned to Bosch’s reliability, having previously owned a Bosch which I had found basic but effective. Things have progressed and I particularly appreciate the quick change blade system and the onboard blade storage but the heart of this remains it’s ability to marry your eye and hand to produce an accurate cut. Bosch continue to produce straightforward, easy to use reliable tools – thank goodness!
This has been my dads favourite birthday gift, he finds it very easy to use and comfortable. Would 100% recommend.
Perfect for cutting thick acrylic with the recommended bosch acrylic cutting blades.
Gift for my husband who told me was happy with this item and it was well made
Brilliant product would recommend to anyone looking for a jigsaw. So easy to use/ as a complete beginner I had no trouble using this power tool.
For the price it is typical good Bosch quality, an excellent product if a little basic
Best jigsaw used . Very smooth and comfortable to use. Powerful cut. Variable speed trigge
my husband was made up with this saw just what he wanted great tool
Bought for my dad when he broke his previous one. He uses all the time and it works great for what he needs.
I’ve had one of these jigsaws previously and was very pleased with it. I bought this as a present for my nephew, as mine is still going strong fifteen years later.
Cordless brings great freedom. Being able to use the same battery as my other Bosch tools makes life easy.

The power button is great, control speed with how hard you press button. Quick change blade option is great too.
Typical Bosch construction. Feels robust and does the job. NOTE – this model does not have a pendulum action.
I don’t have experience with other Jigsaws but i am impressed with how precise and easy it cuts wood.
Handy little power tool, much prefer a battery unit. Does the job though and reasonable at the price.
Adjustable speed
Nice and smooth to work with
Great price and the carry case is a bonus
Good well made jigsaw easy to use and seems very accurate on the bits I’ve done so fa
For a budget jigsaw, the PST 700 E ticks the boxes. After looking at several cheaper options to replace my 30 year old Woolies one (I’m Scottish) this looked to be a good bet. Quick delivery and does everything you expect for a saw of this price. Well pleased with the purchase and would recommend
Used this to build some garden planters where I had dozens of decking boards to cut. This was my first use of a jigsaw, and i just wanted something that was relatively low cost but could manage a fairly heavy use in a project. This tool was up to the task, was easy to use and gave good results, even a novice like me could acheive smooth and straight cuts, and managed to use the bevel cut setting well.
Having decided to take on a project building a canoe, I felt my old cheap jigsaw was not up to the task, inaccurate, slow blade changes, and noisy. I have used bosch tools previously (woek and home) I felt I would treat myself. After reading multiple reviews , i opted for this one, good price to features ratio. I was not disappointed. As someone with limited wood working experience, this proved a godsend. Easy to hold a line, (straight and gradual curves) quick blade changes when needed, and the line guide is surprisingly good! Working on 6mm ply I was worried how the finish would be, but I was pleasantly surprised how neat it was, and only started to splinter a bit towards the end of cutting out 20+ pieces as the blade lost its edge. Would be nice if it came with a straight line guide bar (?) But to be honest,its easier to keep straight and with a bit more practice this might not even be needed for the occasional project use it will get.
I bought this one as I got the impression that it is more quiet and it will not disturb my neighbors (flat). It is truly quite, I made a good choice.
I bought this machine so that I could cut up hygienic cladding board (2.5mm thick pvc). With the supplied guide, anti splinter guard and appropriate pvc saw blade (purchased separately), it worked a treat.
No cons only pros: Excellent design with a compartment for blades. Adjustments (angles etc.) are made very easily.
What a great piece of kit. Got it for small jobs around the house and I am very pleased. Usual bosch quality and pleasure to use.
Very easy to use straight out of the box. Has done lots of cuts and still using provided saw bit ( 2 each provided). Does the job.

Sad to read that this jigsaw was not made in Germany but made in China. I always thought Bosch goods were made in Germany which produces the finest engineering in the world. Goods from China are always inferior and will look careful in future before buying anything.
Bought as I needed to trim the base of a few doors in the house due to new carpets. Works as expected and came with 1 saw bit.
Plug and play, no faffing with instructions to understand which is always a bonus.
Absolutely brilliant handheld jigsaw, love the plastic guide to help you cut straight. Works perfectly and long battery life. Recommended.

only used it once but it cut through 12mm MDF like a hot knife through butter, very easy to maneover, good precision.
Only regret is that I didn’t splurge on the wireless one (not that more expensive if you have the batteries)
But yeah, muuch better than the cheap (crap) one I had before
Compare with 10 years old jigsaws this model is a huge step forward in comfort, safety and low noise.
Used this straight out of the box, Very easy to use with minimal mess involved because of the smart features and filter box.
This is a very easy to use jigsaw. It’s lightweight and cuts smoothly when in use.
Felt safe and no worries about loosing fingers.
Great for a beginner. The option of adding a hoover to the back is a good idea.
It comes in a nice carry case that’s great for storing it and comes with a nice long power cord.
Great product! Would have preferred a cutting guide but that’s my mistake in ordering. It’s incredibly easy to use and the straight line guide is excellent! Glad I spent a little extra for a better product. Should have bought this years ago but had an issue using previous Jig saws that had put me off. The cutting circle is very neat and precise.
Had tried a different jigsaw from my local hardware store and had to take it back as it ground to a halt after cutting for six inches, it was complicated – so many switches to set and to get the blade in, well almost impossible. This Bosch Jigsaw is absolutely brilliant – managed nice curved corners on the wood that I was cutting, speed is regulated by how hard you pull the handle, no fussy settings to bother about – just pull the handle and cut. Great stuff! Thoroughly recommend this jigsaw.
Got this delivered within a few days of order.
What to say, it works. I’ve used to cut through 4 layers of 18mm ply with no hassle at all. I’ve used it to cut complex curves and with some fine details, no bother. It just works.
Noise is not excessive. Vibration is fine, though I wouldn’t call it low vibration but then I have no other reference.
The unit comes with one blade which is “coarse” with a fairly wide pitch. Definitely order a set of blades with narrower pitch to get finer cuts. The cutting speed slows, not painfully but then you get a way smoother cut surface.

Easy to hold and guide. Some plastic attachments difficult to add/remove. Excellent price and build quality.
Great for beginner and pro alike.
For this kind of money you can’t go wrong
Why pay 150 when this does exactly what it is asked to do
great little jigsaw for most household builds and DIY work. Has dust exhaust option also. Only suggestion would be for Bosch to provide a spare blade. That would be icing on the cake
This little jigsaw has been so great .
Easy to use and reliable.
I used it for cutting laminate flooring planks and finished putting a laminate wood floor. Also used to cut a plywood .
A really easy jigsaw to use comes with the plastic case, the front shield, and the extended line mark viewing attachment. Only comes with 1 saw blade and its just a generic blade, the blade storage tbh is a waste of design as it keeps falling off. Much better than my last Black n Decker one.
Made up with this, massive improvement on my old black and decker. So smooth and quiet. The blower function is great so you can see what your doing. Highly recommended
