Ratings & Reviews for Bosch 6.5 -Amp Variable Speed Keyless Jigsaw

Good product

I bought this a couple weeks ago so my use is limited. My first project involved cutting patterns in 30 year old 7/8 inch thick oak. The saw performed very well and certainly met me expectations. Even though I purchased a scroll blade, the one supplied with the saw did a great job. There was one workmanship issue I will have to fix. The snap washer that holds the blade guide wheel shafts in place fell off during first cut. I ultimately lost it trying to put it back on.

Great features

purchased a week a go ,this saw has great features : great ergonomics ,quick release blade, variable speed,soft start, smooth operation and little vibration .

Awesome cutting

Had an old Craftsmen jigsaw began cutting 2x6 rafter tails for a pergola, cut 1, 1/2 painstakingly till the blade broke from too much pressure. Instead of going for more blades I went and compared jigsaws . Bought the Bocsh JS365 finished the other 12 rafters almost as fast as first 1,1/2. Great jigsaw , instead of dreading a jigsaw cut, I look forward to using my Bosch now.

Easy to handle

I'm extremely happy with this saw. I have already used it several times and found it to be easy to handle. The weight is perfect for a woman.

Power, options & value good

Good power & options, blade secure & ease of change, user friendly.

I think it is the best saw out there for the money.

Great jigsaw

I'm 70 years old and have probably owned five jigsaws over the years. This is, by far, the best I've owned. From notching 2x's to cutting sheet aluminum and making plunge cuts this saw does it all.

The power of a skillsaw in one hand!

I bought this over seven months ago and it's performed a variety of cutting tasks. I usually have to adjust the but speed slower, this jig saw is very powerful. With the quick change blade system it's a snap to change blades for a variety of tasks.

Comfortable and easy

Bought this several months ago to work on some adirondacks. It was easy and comfortable to use and cut accurately. Love the case it comes in, too.

Perfect

Bought the jig saw to do woodworking projects and it does the job I'm sure it will last for years to come based on the quality new to Bosch tools and very happy I decided to buy this product.

GREAT Jig Saw!!!

I've used this jigsaw for over ten years, and have never had any problems with it. I runs as smoothly now as when it was a day old. This is a great product!

Fantastic Tool at a Great Price

I needed a Jigsaw to cut large circular blanks, 14" to 20" diameter, from dense hardwoods like Bubinga, Zebra wood, Lace wood, American Walnut, etc. These are used to make Lazy Susan Turntables. So for cutting S2S 4/4 dense hardwoods this is the right tool. The starting wood is about 13/16" thick. Besides being the right tool for the task it is about 1/2 the price of some other brands high end jigsaws. Based on my recent personal experience, the high price unit is not up to the task [at least no...

nice and lite

Top dog

blades are easy to change, and cutting action has smooth control.

Great tool

Bought this for a lot of DIY home projects and hobbies. Has all the features needed for any project I need and feels well built like it's going to last forever. The hard case is well worth the few extra dollars for storage.

balanced barrel handle.

comfortable in your hand with ease of cutting angle and turns. beastly power makes cutting a joy.

I have enjoyed my jig saw! It is easy to use for a woman who loves doing small projects around the house.

I brought this about six months ago and have used it many times during remodeling project. I like the variable speed and smooth startup when starting to saw
