Review: Tight spaces are no match for this tool. - If you're looking for a compact battery-operated reciprocating saw, this is what you need. There was a bit of vibration to my hand when I cut about 50 six-penny nails that fasten the roof plywood to the facia but this tool made short work of that process. It is a great tool all around and the standard reciprocating blades will fit with only one drawback, the shoe needs to be tightened with the supplied hex wrench.
Review: Great for small jobs - Just to level-set, I'm a 77 year-old woman, 108 lb. I purchased this saw to cut down a dead palm tree in my yard. As you can see, it worked great. While I have no plans to take up logging as a second career, this little saw has lots of power for small jobs like this. [Note: the blades must be purchased separately. I already had a Makita battery fortunately]

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ NOT A POWERFUL SAWZALL
*by C***N on September 24, 2025*

Not the most powerful saw ever by a long shot. Cuts 2 inch PVC pretty well. I bought it because I work in tight spaces (plumbing) and I have a feeling it's gonna save my butt one day. Don't buy this if you need to cut anything bigger than 2 inch pvc
