Product Description: It's a funny thing about jigsaws; most of us tend to reach for another tool in its stead, having had less-than-great experiences with the little beasts. But here comes Bosch's 1590, and it elevates the outcast jigsaw to the most-wanted list. The first thing we liked about this saw is its heft; it's beefy, solid and made with that famous Swiss quality. You wrap your hand around the soft, substantial grip, squeeze the ample trigger and the soft-start whirs gently; with hardly any effort from you, the blade slices through whatever's ahead of it. Perhaps because it's heavier than most jigsaws, there's practically zero vibration, giving you a delightfully smooth, no-buzz experience, something pretty much unheard of in your average jigsaw. Another nice feature is the speed mechanism: Set your maximum speed on the trigger dial, then control your speed up to that max by squeezing the trigger. On long cuts, you can lock the trigger on, too, and the blower actually does keep your cutline clear. If that's all this saw had going for it, that would be enough for us. But coolest of all is the blade-change system that literally ejects the blade in a split second, takes the new one and gets you right back to your cutting - all tool-free. Amazing. If you've relegated the jigsaw to the bottom of your toolbox, you owe it to yourself to give this one a chance. We think it's fantastic. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste What's in the Box

Excellent Smooth Vibration Free Saw
This saw is much superior to my old Craftsman that died. It absorbs the cutting vibration, which greatly improves control. The sawdust blower feature is a real plus. Should you buy this saw I recommend you buy the JA1003 saw guide and JA1005 Dust Pick up kit at the same time as they are not included. The only detractor I found was the saw guide could be more robust. However, it has held up so far.

Awesome saw........Cuts straight..........
This saw was worth every penny paid. It cuts straight because of the blade holding mechanisim. My old saw would let the blade bend slightly and therefore cut unsquare. It is a very powerful saw and has no trouble with any wood type. This is a dream come true.

Great
Have used mine extensively on home construction. No complaints - wish I had bought one sooner.

Works Like a Champ
When I got the Bosch jigsaw to replace my old Black and Decker. It was the best investment I ever made. The unit itself is heavy but it runs very smoothly and fast. I can't believe how fast it cuts through a 3/4" plywood. I remembered using my old Black and Decker jigsaw (I bought from Home Depot for $49)to cut a hole to fit a kitchen sink. It took me a good 45 mins. If I had this tool, it will only take me less than 5 mins. I alway knew Bosch makes good dishwasher, who knew they make such awesome tools as well. So far, I have use it to cut plywood, pine and mahogany and it works like a champ everytime. This jigsaw is comparable to Dewalt, Makita, and Craftsman. Amazon has the best price, no tax...You won't regret owning this product.

A Winner
As the saying goes, "You get what you pay for", and this tool delivers its function commensurate to its cost. Its capacity to cut two byes is a joy to behold.
