First time I've used it was tonight, and brought out a lot of little projects I wanted to try it out on.First, I took a 7" thick log of about 4' long. I cut this into fireplace 12" long cuts in less than 5 minutes, not even making the saw work hard.Next, I had a long pallet made up of good 2X4" frame pieces. Cut through the slats and nails as if there were no nails in it. Literally the same speed as my Makita Jigsaw would cut through a 1/2" piece of plywood.Finally, had some 4" X 4" X 16" blocks of hard oak I wanted to make a mallet out of. Cut it and again went through it easily and cleanly. No burning, no lag.Good part is, got it at a lower price than Amazon. Also,

I purchased this primarily for pruning tasks in the garden, beyond the reach of a power cord and in circumstances where I would rather not risk using a chainsaw (even though it is a Makita cordless). Coupled with some chunky Bosch blades, it has made short work of taking down some dead branches and dealing with an overgrown hawthorn up to 120 mm dia. Only small disappointment is that the shoe is not adjustable but I couldn't really justify paying nearly twice as much for the brushless version just so I could have an adjustable shoe. Otherwise, a great addition to my toolkit and, of course, it shares the 18 volt LXT battery platform with my other Makita cordless tools.

For cutting nails and screws between 2 pieces of wood is brilliant with this as you don't damage the timber when you pull structures down. All the blades supplied work well, have bought some longer blades which are handy for tight to reach area`s. The only thing I noticed with its operation is that 4amp hour battery`s don't really manage to keep it going when the cutting gets tough. So bought a 5amp hour battery, it works much better. Overall a worthy Makita tool, to add to your collection.

This Makita saw is very powerful and cuts through metal very quickly. It feels reassuringly solid and good value for money. The quick change blade holder is very useful. The rubber coating provides a comfortable grip.It does feel unwieldy if you use one hand- you reallly need both hands for a controlled cut.My one disappointment is that there is no job light- I made the mistake of assuming there would be one as most makita cordless products seem to have them now.

I bought this saw as I already have other 18v Makita tools and I wanted an electric saw to cut through old steel central heating pipes at home.It has coped with the original job and has proved to be an excellent garden saw able to cut through tree branches up to 6in thick with ease.This is a very versatile piece of equipment.

this reciprocating saw is a fantastic tool, does exactly what it states on the write up, purchased for my husband for use in his trade as a scaffolder. this tool is fairly lightweight easy to use and comes ready to start work with 5 blades. would recommend.

A very good quality reciprocating saw built to a high standard. This is a heavy duty saw, and copes with timber, metal and plastic with ease. The saw uses the standard Maikita Li-ion battery, which can be swapped over from their drill and charger with ease.

Excellent saw, has plenty of power to cut through metal and wood, with easy blade change just by turning the locking collar, no need for an allen key like my previous one, I would highly rate this saw.

Have bought this as a Xmas present, so could not test it to its full potential. Yet it seems to work well, won't know for sure until it is used on metal and wood. Cheers Pete

Handy piece of kit, cuts through 3" garden fence posts with complete ease, and being cordless makes it very easy to manipulate with no restrictionsRecommend!

Sturdy and adaptable. Used this to pollard a 20' apple tree - it managed fabulously and though heavy, it was still manoeuvrable.

Such power and chews through anything... blade dependent of course! 4 star only cos pretty heavy, but can't have everything!
