Used for the first time today, brill tool just what I was looking fo
This is another nice product from Bosch and presented in the familiar Green Plastic Carrying Case.
So much better than my old one purchased in the 1970’s. The Bosch is easier to use with low vibration and pleasant handling which is a familiar thing with Bosch tools. Quick change of blade is a useful factor and a Corded Machine for instant use. I am confident that this will suit my current and future DIY projects.
I own several other Bosch tools so I might be counted as a Fan of the Brand.
Got it for my mum as she loves her DIY, she was happy, but I think she would have been happier if there was an additional space blade attachment.
I bought this to replace my old jigsaw.
I don’t do much diy, but I do need a jigsaw from time to time and this fits the bill. It’s easy to set up and use although I did buy the splinter guard and guide accessories in addition. I also bought some additional blades.
The speed control is very good allowing a slow start, increasing speed as you get comfortable with the job.
I’m satisfied that this item will do what I need it to. The case is durable and handy for keeping the saw, the extra blades and a couple of other small bits and pieces.
If I was using the saw regularly I’d probably have chosen a cordless version, but the corded one is fine for my purposes.
This is the 2nd jigsaw I’ve bought, it was exactly the model I bought in September 2019 (so, sadly, out of warranty). On the old machine, the mechanism that keeps the blade in place has broken so it isn’t possible to use the machine any more. TBH, it’s had quite a bit of use over the time I’ve had it, so I’m happy to replace it with a new one, especially when the broken part was going to cost 30 and the new saw was “only” 30 more…..That all explains the headline!
I have a couple of Bosch tools that share the same battery (I have two of those as well) and like the machine. It cuts well, has a light on it, has a good guide on the baseplate. It does what I need which is pretty basic DIY. Battery life is OK, but I’m not sure I’d want to rely on it to last a whole day in constant use.
It’s a shame it doesn’t come in a nice plastic case though. I’ll see if it lasts beyond the warranty period again….
Had the Bosch cordless drill with 2 batteries so after the plumber let me down when I needed a sink moving decided to go for this to replace corded one I seem to have mislaid while moving house. Delighted with it, sailed through the worktop better than I expected being cordless. Loving having a cordless one now, so much easier. I’m just a hobby diyer because I have to but this will help me do more myself and work out cheaper in the long run. Plan on making some window shutters next.
I actually got this in July 2022 when it was “on special”. A week ago I had a small woodworking job I thought this tool would be ideal for. Unpacked it, all looked great until I looked for the blade, there wasn’t one! So I guess that was the “reduction”, no blades!!! Anyway, used the handsaw & put a memo on the phone to get some blades.
This unit does the job-but note it doesn’t come with a case which you have to buy separately.
All perfect what else can I say. Can’t wait till Amazon mess up an order, lol. So far no faults and 2 be honest I’m not expecting any. Place an order, check ur order , then watch it travel to ur door, item dispatched, item collected, item out for delivery, and item delivery time and date, just listen for the door bell. DONE.
Generally quite good. Does the job.
To improve:
1. User’s guide; for some additional bits I found in the box I have no clue how to use. Neither the
included booklet nor an online manual helped.
2. The red blade storage doesn’t stay in place while operating the tool; would be good if it did.
A great saw, put straight to use after opening the case. Fortunately, I had also bought some Bosch blades, because my unit did to come with a blade ass advertised. Hence four stars. Still, very easy to use, a great little machine.
Bough this a few weeks ago and it’s an absolutely little cracker for DIY jobs anyway. Would definitely recommend
I have used this for so many years and It is still working perfectly.
After buying a cordless drill, this is surely your next purchase. Once you’ve had one, you wouldn’t be without one.
Cuts spars and panels easily comfortable to hold,good value for money.
Bought for my husband who has arthritis in his wrists. He has been able to use it very well.
It is very versatile tool. especially with a good range of different blades.
I really get on well with Bosch power tools and this is no exception – as you’d expect it makes cutting wood etc effortless – it’s low vibration and it’s really accurate. I particularly like the little perspec cutting guide flap that points out the front.
My only 2 little moans about it are there’s no form of deadman’s switch – as soon as you press the trigger it starts (as you’d expect I guess) – but it’s very hard to pick it up without accidentally pressing the trigger this is a bit dangerous – I’d prefer something like you have on lawn mowers where you have to press a button and then the trigger
Secondly the box it comes in is a lot more flimsy than the Bosch drill box – and arrived with one corner smashed. It’s not worth sending back over but it’s a bit annoying since I specifically want it in a box (oddly some of Bosch’s product don’t have a nice plastic box).
Def recommend
I bought this jigsaw to cut both straight and curved lines. I am really pleased with the handling ability, especially when cutting around a curve at a 45 deg angle. This proved to be much easier than I was expecting and the result was as good as I was hoping for.
Jigsaws are versatile. And this one is really good. 1.5 years on still going strong. I also got Bosch blades for metal cutting. Which work great in wood also for fine shaping etc They last forever too! And all at affordable price
Very nice product and well priced, used it today to cut some timber, easy and safe to use. would recommend
This is the 3rd jigsaw I have owned and this is far superior to the previous jigsaws. It cuts very well, easy to control, does not wander and hardly any vibrration felt. Would definitely recommend.
This is a quality product at an extremely good price. Variable speed control is smooth. Comes with one blade. Oscillation control as well! I’m very happy with this purchase.
A superb tool accurate easy to use and perfect cu
Bought this for grandson I. Laws present he was thrilled with i
Smart well built tool for the job. Fits in hand well
I got it to install a sink in a wooden worktop. It worked with no problem and had sufficient power to do so easily. Comes with one universal blade
My only gripe is that I wish it came with more than one blade.
used with the right blades for laminate floor. one oif the best tools I ever bought.
Good jigsaw but doesn’t come with a fence guide which is a disappointment.
Excellent piece of kit item exactly as advertised good quality and value for money
Wanted something to be able to cut through wood without needing a saw. The straight can be tricky you’ll need to have a proper bench and clamps etc. Curves are extremely easy. Night the Bosch extra blades as well. Got the mains version just find it more convenient rather than waiting for batteries to charge etc. Good price.

Cuts through wood planks in a breeze. Comes with a single wood saw blade, so you don’t actually need to buy extra blades as I did unless you need to work on metal.
Great little jigsaw, used to cut kitchen worktop which it did with ease and the blowing function kept the pencil lines in view. Would of been nice to have selection of blades instead of just one general blade but still good value tool.
Replaced a 20 year old Black and Decker as my occasional-use DIY jigsaw. Feels solid in the hand, cuts precisely and cleanly. I used it to cut some laminated ply camper van furniture and was very pleased with the results. I would say it’s ideal for anyone who needs a jigsaw in their toolkit for projects around the home.

Only down side would be the single supplied but bent when cutting wood. Another spare would have be appreciated.
Didn’t expect it would work so well for a bit more than 40! Especially I was surprised how well and fast it cut aluminium with a proper saw. Highly recommending!
Ticks all the boxes. Perfect for home DIY. Built decking out of used pallets with this thing. Still going strong
Lovely jig saw and yes it’s wired but it’s a great saw that’s works as it should. Great value and recommended
Overall I am very happy with this product. Only a couple of criticisms. I found when handling, the trigger could easily be set in motion, so had to be careful when picking it up. Also, when doing curves, the guidelines on the on surface to be cut could not be seen so estimates on where the cutting blade was had to be made. I am only an amateur at this, so will probably get more used to it as time goes on.
Its been really good experience last two weeks, we used for cut tick laminate floor and its fast and really precis in the cuts, we are so happy and we been using a lot this last two week so we totally recommend if you need small practical jigsaw in home, we also try in pieces of wood and make the job properly
Great value. Comes with plastic case and a single blade. Used to cut wood flooring lengthways. Did job well.
Excellent jig saw. Bought due to positive reviews and I’m not disappointed one bit!
I am a DIY user with no prior experience in carpentry. Very easy to use device. No vibrations to handle at all. Was bit nervous initially for using tool but after few usage have gained lots of confidence in it.
First delivered device developed some issues in few days, blade got stuck – maybe gears got jammed. Thanks to Amazon they replaced the device within a day. Awesome service
I really like this jigsaw
Was able to use it to cut my floorboards to size and then screw them on to the joists with ease
Cuts very well.
Will be sure to come in handy for other DIY jobs
Bought this jigsaw as I was taking on a project to install laminate flooring
Made the job so easy. Smooth machine. Glides nicely. Well done Bosch
After several years of use and non-use of a heavy, worn out budget saw that sounded like a jet engine, this Bosch jigsaw is a delight to use. The saw change is simple and quick, with no tools required, and there are several useful additions to aid cutting. There is an optional dust blower at the cut site to clear debris while in operation; a pendulum/orbital switch for fine and speed cutting; a useful cutting guide can be pressed onto the base plate, and there is also a useful tool holder that slides into the base. Overall, highly recommended.
I am a rank amateur but needed to cut the cat flap bigger in the back door so decided to have a go. This tool is very easy to use and I am very pleased I managed to cut the hole reasonably well! Very pleased with the jigsaw and I’ll have a go at a few other jobs 🙂
I got this and a set of blades to help fit a wooden floor in the hallway. With the right blade and anti-splinter accessory it was so good I didn’t need to file edges, just glue the boards and scotia straight away! My husband said I was smiling as I cut neat, straight lines in seconds.
I managed to cut sections and angles into boards to fit our wonky walls and round steps and door frames. Similar principles to a sewing machine and small scale piercing work in metal to get corners and bends.

Works well, only issue I have come across, occasionally the blade locking mechanism jams. It gets lot of use, but now and then it locks so I strip it down to clean, then it’s OK.
I purchased this after my cheap one broke after a couple of uses.
So glad I went for this one as it is a dream to work with, easy to use and the guide is a really handy addition. Glides through in no time at all.
Only thing i might have thought about is getting a battery version for easier use but to be honest pulling out the extension lead is not to much of an issue.
Overall its an amazing tool and highly reccomended.

Easy to use and good quality work tool very useful
This has made all my DIY tasks a breeze I’ve cut metal, wood and upvb. Easy to change blade.. accurate.. can’t fault i
This saw made light work of of the flooring I was fitting and easily cut around the doorway etc. I look forward to using it on other projects.
Bought as a replacement. It is quicker and easier to change blades. There is less vibration and the wife guide (better than perspex) enables you to see the cut and be more accurate. Used for 45 degree cuts on inch thick timber decking.
Brilliant for the price. No issues. Used to shorten worktop length. Perfect. Would definitely recommend.
If you’re looking for a lower priced jigsaw you won’t be disappointed with this. It’s done all I’ve asked of it with no problems.
Realy powerfully machine well made and realy easy tool less blade change ive used it to cut up shed floor and even tho I only had a cheap blade it still did a good job with proper blade for chip board it would have been super fas
I am a female and no DIY experience so just starting to do some small wood cutting.
With this saw. The wood almost cuts by itself, no stress and the vibration is very low.
Just draw the line on the wood and the guide helps follow a straight line.
Cannot be more satisfied.
Comfortable in the hand. Easy to use and change blades
Another reviewer stated that no blades were included. There was a single blade included, though I am glad that I ordered “Bosch 2608633779 Clean Wood Jigsaw Blade, 1 Lug, Silver, Pack of 3” at the same time as I think that the bigger teeth on the blade that came with the saw would have given a rougher cut on the mdf board I used.
In the description of the saw it says that a lithium ion battery is required but not included. It’s not stated in the saws details what type of lithium battery would be needed and I could not find any mention of the battery in the instructions or see where a battery could be fitted, so I think that the details on the screen must be wrong and consequently only scored the accuracy a 4.
All in all I’m pretty pleased with the saw.
Although I bought this for a chest of drawers repair, I have found so many uses for this product, it does make me wonder how I coped before, this is the best bit of money I have spent in such a long time.
Very safe, superb sawing action with as much versatility as I could ever need.
Good value reliable item you get what you pay for!
Don’t waste money on those 20 rubbish saws, you will regret it. For the longest time, I thought I was using jigsaws wrong. The blades and cuts were never straight and cutting was difficult. Using this was a revelation. Even a budget Bosch is better than no name bargain tools.
It’s very powerful cutter for most of the works and good thing is you can choose how fast or slow you want to use.
I was confused for choosing Bosch’s right model for me as i rarely need this.
But happy that i have chosen this cheap model .
Really good jigsaw for the price. Has the bosch quality feel and a very reasonably price. Cuts are smooth and precise.
All my electrical products are bosch and I am very please with this jig saw. Very quick delivery at a good price.
I used this when fitting my kitchen to trim scribed panels with the use of a down cut blade. This tool was great, I would recommend it.
As someone that is next to useless at any form of DIY, i read other reviews of this product and bought it. Glad i did as its very easy to set up and use. Made light of cutting through deck boards and pallets for my garden project. Excellent value for money and delivered the next day. My only issue was that the blade it was supplied with was loose and unprotected in the carry case and i nearly cut my hand. Didnt help the inside of the box is black and so is the blade. So be careful when opening the carry case.
