What Customers Are Saying

The tool is described as versatile and powerful, with a compact and lightweight design that is easy to handle. It has good performance and can cut through larger limbs and tough materials. However, some reviewers noted it may not be as powerful as higher-voltage models, and the battery life can drain quickly on larger jobs. A few users also reported issues with the tool's durability. Overall, it is recommended as a good option for light to medium-duty tasks, offering a balance of power and portability.

Exceeds expectations

Would Recommend

Exceeds expectations. Needed to replace my ryobi saw and this way better to control the cuts. Ryobi was awkward.

Great light-weight tool for smaller hands

Would Recommend

Easy to use and the pwr core line fits good in my hand. Perfect for pencil sized limbs or smaller. Will cut larger limbs but it drained the battery fast plus it took longer and required extra effort. Could be the complimentary blade!

No power

Would Not Recommend

I returned the impact driver and the sawzall. The driver lacks power. And the sawzall had an annoying delay when pulling the trigger.

Would Recommend

Nicely balanced and fit my hand well. Blade insertion & detachment was pretty easy. It zipped right through the hard plastic that I needed to remove.

Great reciprocating saw

I needed a quick and easy (and cord free) tool to trim in my yard. Can’t always count on the gardener to see things. This saw fit the bill! The batteries charged in no time, the saw is easy to handle (even for an old lady like me) and it absolutely cuts like I had hoped it would.

Small yet effective

Would Recommend

Powerful and versatile in a small footprint While only 12v, this saw still has the power to wield even a 12inch blade thru timber
