Really like Bosch Tools
I have only used it once so far, cutting some 3/4" plywood, with the supplied blade. It literally cut thru like butter, I was shocked. My previous B&D jigsaw, atleast 20 years old, industrial rated, 4 amps, would have been no where as fast, and also never seemed to cut perpendicular to the surface. This unit was bang on perpendicular, fast as blazes.
