What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this jigsaw for its ease of use, reliable performance, and excellent value. Most highlight the lightweight design, comfortable grip, and intuitive controls that make it natural to handle, even for first-time users. The tool-free blade change mechanism is frequently called a game-changer for quick swaps during projects. Reviewers consistently report smooth, precise cuts across plywood, decking, and pegboard, with variable speed control maintaining accuracy. Many describe results as buttery smooth and note the affordability exceeds expectations. A few report minor alignment issues with the shoe plate, though these concerns are isolated and outweighed by strong satisfaction.

Would RecommendIt is a good price and quality. I really like how easy it is to change blades.
Not too fancy - gets the job done quick and easy.
Would RecommendWill only be used occasionally, so this was exactly the jigsaw I needed. Easy to place blade and held it securely - didn't need tools to place or hold blade. Easy to control.
Not a bad tool
Would RecommendIf you’re looking for a basic, orbital jigsaw, this is a good one. Just know you’re getting what you pay for. It works fine, but creature comforts like a dust blower, led light and tool less bevel adjustment aren’t part of the deal. Overall, I’m happy with it.

Mighty
Would RecommendMy Ryobi jigsaw had a short life. always had trouble with it and then 1 day it just jammed up & died. i was disgusted, so I decided just 2 get me a old corded Craftsman. Woo Wee, this thing ain't no joke. it's powerful! Good quality tool.
6 Months and its Garbage
Would Not RecommendI bought this saw about six months ago and it broke today. I tried to take it back to lowes and they pretty much told me i should have got the extended warranty and wouldn’t help me at all. So $50 down the drain. I guess Craftsman tools aren’t what they use to be.
Nice product but one major deficiency
Would RecommendThis is a nice to handle tool. I purchased it to widen a counter opening for a new appliance. Everything was fine until I needed to adjust the bevel to about 10° on one of the edges. That's when I discovered there are only two available bevel angles: 22.5° and 45° in either direction due to specific keyways in the shoe plate. If you never need to make bevel adjustments, this tool will be fine for you. If you need intermediate bevel angles beyond what this tool provides, you probably should ...
Highly recommended
Would RecommendSkeptical but wow, great tool, accurate and smooth. Cuts like high end units for a lot less. Highly recommended
Works well
Would RecommendVariable power and variable speed trigger are nice.
Get jig saw
Would RecommendI love the adjustable speed control. I cut different kinds of wood for the fairy houses I make and the speed adjustment is key.
