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

Does a great job

This is a great saw, it saws a clean smooth line, doesn't bounce like a lot of jig saws. We love it, can't wait for the next project.

Powereful, durable

Cut through 16G weld steal almost lit butter with Bosch 36TPI blade. Powerful, durable and easy to set up and use.

excellent saw

This 6.5 amp jig saw does the trick. Super smooth to operate and control. Cuts like butter with 10 tpi blade with minimal blade flex. Very smooth cut with this blade. The only thing that would be helpful is a light to make it easier to see the cutting line. The built in blower keeps the cutting path clear.

Cuts like butter

Very smooth and powerful. I bought this to replace a black and decker jigsaw which broke recently after years of use. This one made very quick work of every project. Wish I had picked one up sooner.

Great jigsaw

To start I'm not a professional at wood working, and had wrote jigsaws off years ago due to experiences working with inferior jigsaws that gave me a very bad impression of them all together. I have recently had several projects that required a saw of this type so after lots of research I went with the Bosch. I have to say it's very easy to maintain and a dream to use. No comparison to the older saws I had before. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of some of the absolute top of the line ...

This tool is great

After years of struggling with a lower quality jigsaw, we finally broke down and purchased this one. Why we waited so long and fought with the other one, I don't know. The ease of use and quality of the cut is amazing. It's a time saver for sure. So far we've only used it on pressure-treated lumber and it works great. It's comfortable and handles well for both my husband and me. I've had limited experience with jigsaws in general and so far I've been able to make cuts that are good the first tim...

My first REAL jigsaw

I have had two $30 jigsaw in the past and formed a terrible opinion of jigsaws in general. Mainly that jigsaws were inaccurate and difficult to cut straight. A coworker suggested I try a better jigsaw. I am so glad I took him up on the advice. Straight cuts, scroll cuts, whatever cuts I need, now I have confidence in going to a jigsaw. No more need to drag out the table saw or circular saw for some of my cuts. Great buy!

Excellent Purchase

I bought this on sale to use at home for hobbies (I have the barrel grip jigsaw for work - kitchen building and installation) but this saw was so consistent and reliable that it ended up on the jobsite with me. I really abuse this thing and it shows no loss of functionality. Definitely recommend this product.

very comfortable and all around nice saw

I bought this jigsaw 4 months ago and have been very pleased with its overall performance. I build cabinets, furniture and custom woodworking for a living, although I bought this saw to use at home (and have used it on several projects), I did take it to work for a couple weeks to really put it through its paces. the saw has performed great, it's got plenty of power to handle cutting through hard oak or maple just as easily as cutting 1/4 plywood,. along with a smooth Straight cutting action tha...

An accurate comfortable to use tool

I have ,in the past owned a number of jig saws and this one is by far the best one. It is powerful, easy to manipulate, has a long cord and has the features that a top notch saw should have. Blade insertion and removal is easy and with the vacuum attachment vary little sawdust is left behind to clean up.

Great saw

I bought this saw a few months ago. Can't say enough good about it. Cuts straight, fast with little to no blade wandering. Beats the pants off my previous saw. I did comparisons with its contemporaries and had to go Bosch. Glad I did.

MUST HAVE TOOL

I found myself in the need for a jig saw and after a strenuous search came upon the JS365. It's a pretty big jigsaw compared to others I've owned in the past and I was concerned that might present a problem when using it but that just wasn't the case. I can't speak on long term use but so far the saw has been a pleasure to use. I love the quick tooless change out of the blades.

FOR PROFESSIONALS

This saw has been always ready when we need it, for anything we need it for. It is so small and compact we always keep it behind my seat, for that time when you forgot your circular saw, or your apprentice sliced the blade of your 7", this guy will slice thru a 2x6, metal stud, piece of angle iron, hardiboard, etc. A one man show that can do it all for you, and still slice a clean piece of trim.

Professional grade

I have put one year of hard use on this saw and it looks and feels new, I use it in many more applications than I anticipated, powerful and versatile, very easy to adjust and blade changes are a snap.

Does the job with power!

Nice tool. Fits well in your hand. Cuts like butter!

The Cadillac of Jigsaws

As a professional cabinet installer I have used various brands and types of jigsaws in the past; however, the Bosh JS365 is the best I have ever used. The best way to describe it is to say, “it’s the Cadillac of Jigsaws.” You will not be disappointed in the quality, ease of use, and smoothness of this jigsaw.

Best ever!

I was in desperate need for a quality Jigsaw...and the JS365 was the one. I cut various types of flooring from wood to laminate and even dura-ceramic tiles. The featured such a variable speed control, blade aggressiveness, blade guide rollers and blade blower(now I can even see the line). With the correct blade and some use, I have no doubt you will like this jigsaw as much as I do.

Great product!

This saw works better than any we have owned. Best money we have spent!

Just what I wanted

I haven't owned a new jig saw since I bought my last one some 20 years ago. This one, although not rated as one the pro's might want, was just what I wanted. The improvements made over time and the excellence of the product line itself made this a really nice machine. Time will tell of course, but so far I really appreciate the way this saw handles. It almost makes my band saw obsolete.
