Ratings & Reviews for Bosch 18-volt Variable Speed Cordless Reciprocating Saw (Battery Not Included)

More power than my old one

Slowly swapping out my old NiCad craftsman set for Bosch.. This reciprocating has much more power.

impressive power

Wow this thing cuts through wood and nails like a honey badger. I’ve had this tool for a few days and used it to cut through 4x4 fence posts and attached pickets.

Great Value

I purchased the saw, mainly because it came with a free battery and charger. So far I used it for just about everything. Explain I’ve used to cut PVC for my sprinkler system, steel for a small project I was working on, and doing some minor limb trimming in my yard. Great all around tool, I recommend everybody

Great timesaver

I have only had this saw for two weeks so I cannot speak to its durability. However, it has cut through branches with ease and seems to be a lot easier to handle than a chainsaw. The weight is manageable and as I age that becomes more of a concern.

Handy

Bought as a replacement for my old corded PC saw that is worn out from remodeling my old farmhouse. Already own several Bosch 18V tools so it was a no brainer. It was the only 18V tool of several on sale at the time that did not include a battery and charger.

Great product

Just purchased this for me as a early christmas present. I cannot really comment on the overall performance. I will say that this is a steal! I got the battery and charger for free with purchase. Probably a limited time only. Best deal anywhere!

I didn't want to buy the same reciprocating tool .

Rugged,Tough and did what I needed it to,I bought Bosch for a reason.

Awesome For Small Jobs

Great tool but the battery doesn't last very long.

garbage

I was always a huge fan of Bosch tools. No more though. Hammer drill, impact,circular saw,and recip saw all cordless all worthless for professional use. It seems Bosch has gone downhill. In a world where everyone is going to cordless tools you would think Bosch would have stayed competitive. I guess they didn't get the memo

Strong saw

Strong saw. Made 8 cuts through 4x6s like butter. Didn't even make a dent in the 4ah battery.

Powerhouse battery driven saw

Cut through 1” old marine plywood like butter. Made my life much happier. Loved the quick change blade system. Battery charged quickly. Bought this saw when there was also a BOGO offer so I got the battery and charger for free.

Not a tool to brag about

I don’t personally own this but a contractor I work with does and we constantly have to bust out a corded due to the fact that this thing has no power whatsoever it’s quiet because the speed sucks, it doesn’t do a lot of work, super easy to bog down with little pressure. Blade change is ridiculous to try and work with. Overall it gets 90% of jobs done, just takes forever to cut through most materials, especially wood. The fact it’s mostly worked is why it gets two stars instead of one. Just buy ...

Great purchase. Great power.

Extremely happy with this purchase. Utilizes the batteries that I currently have on hand from my Bosch drill. Like the one handed blade loading ability versus having to hold a lever while inserting a blade. Would love to buy more Bosch cordless tools.
