 "This is an excellent jigsaw but.." 2010-06-05
By R. Dare (San Francisco)
This is an excellent jigsaw for those who use one frequently. Infrequent users will forget where the on/off switch is and will fumble around for it. If your postioning allows, keep one index finger or thumb on the switch so you can shut it off immediately when necessary. The top handle model has the trigger in an intuitive position but the trade off is your hand is further away from the blade with less control - when using one hand.

 "Lacking in safety" 2010-05-02
By mr_silverhare (MD United States)
I bought the Bosch 1591EVSK barrel grip a couple weeks ago based off of the positive reviews and Bosch's reputation.



First let me say that it is a very solid jigsaw. Plenty of power and the barrel grip gives you extra control. My major complaint is safety. There is an on/off switch on the side of the barrel. Bosch should have used a safety switch similar to what Milwaukee's angle grinders use. If the saw ever got out of your hands it would continue to run. Another point that I do not like is the speed adjustment is located on the end of the barrel making it difficult to adjust the speed while operating the saw.

 "Lesson Learned - There's more to a Jigsaw then a blade going Up and Down." 2010-03-22
By tedth66 (northwest)
I needed a jigsaw but couldn't decide whether to pay ~[...] for the Bosch or ~80 for the Craftsman. Here's my thinking behind my first attempt of filling my jigsaw void... "Hmmm??? The blade goes up and down, right?,,, Anyone can do that, right? I KNOW, just in case the CM saw sucks I'll put Bosch blades in it and I'll spend half the money as I would if I went with the Bosch. BONUS!!!!! ~ in this week's ad Sears is having a SALE on power tools,,, I can get the Craftsman jigsaw for 60 bucks,,,, DONE DEAL, Craftsman jigsaw with Bosch blades and all will be good."



WRONG!!! Just like the shoes didn't make Michael Jordan who he was (sorry Nike) the blades aren't going to make the Craftsman jigsaw any better than what it is. After a few cuts with the Craftsman jigsaw I quickly learned that there's more to a jigsaw then a blade going up and down. The jigsaw has to be easy to control, comfortable and produce a quality cut; all things that the Craftsman falls way short on.



My attempt at 'saving money' ended up costing me more. Here's why I ended up buying the Bosch 1591EVsk Barrel Grip Jigsaw....



CONTROL - Typically it takes a few cuts to get a feel for a power tool. My first cut with the Bosch was heaven. I Immediately felt in control. I wasn't being anymore patient with this saw than I was with the CM but due to the reduced vibration in the Bosch vs the CM the Bosch gave me the control to cut a 4" port accurately and with the quality I was looking for in a jigsaw. I was also using the same USED blade that I used in the CM saw so it was saw vs saw. The barrel design allowed me to make curved cuts easier because it didn't require my entire arm to move along with the saw. I think the barrel design is much easier to maneuver than the typical jigsaw handled designs.



COMFORT - The Bosch Barrel Grip is comfortable and fits 'like a glove' and allows you to make accurate tight controlled curves. The lack of bulkiness and vibration makes the Bosch super comfortable to use.



NOISE - for those of you that have only used the Bosch jigsaw you probably think it's loud. Compared to the CM the Bosch is not loud at all. I always wear ear protection when using power tools but I definitely noticed a difference in the db level between the two.



BLADE CHANGING - BChanging is a snap. pull a lever and it releases the blade. I don't think it gets any easier than that. To insert a blade you push it in and you're ready to go. CAKE!!! Yet another bash on CM,,, there's a big red spring-loaded knob that you need to turn and it's tucked in behind the plastic blade guard. I have small hands and I can barely get to it and turn it to unlock the blade. The spring loaded knob seems like it requires about 30lbs of pressure to turn it. I'm very surprised I didn't break that plastic shield while removing/adding blades in CM.



Quality of cut - The Bosch jigsaw is simply outstanding. The Bosch has a couple of guide pins along with the guide roller to prevent the blade from deflecting, I assume. These guide pins make all the difference in the world for the cut quality. The cut with my CM with a lonely guide roller did not prevent the blade from wandering/deflecting as it cut through a 3/4 inch piece of plywood or 3/4 inch MDF. With the Bosch the cut was straight down and straight up. I said goodbye to the ~22.3degree deflected cut that the POS CM saw left me.



As for the dust collection and other features, I haven't used them much. There is a dust blower that you can turn on and off and it did a fantastic job of keeping the dust off of the line that I was following. I remember this being very frustrating with the CM because I continually had to stop and brush off the line so I could see it (I was wearing a face mask so I couldn't blow off the dust) or setup a fan to constantly blow off the material.



Nice to haves - Anti Splintering insert, No-Mar faceplate and a rugged case that allows you to store the saw WITH the blade installed unlike the CM fabric bag.



The Moral of the story ~ don't skimp on power tools ... go with the best if you care about the quality of what the tool is supposed to do.

 "Read this one." 2010-03-20
By Mike D. Watson (Toledo, OH)
i got this saw a few days ago and i'm happy with the product. i read many reviews and compared jig saws from top manufacturers, such as festool and hilti. hear is my observations.



the bottom of this saw is a metal plate, not the part that bevels but the very bottom that touches the work piece, and it can be replaced if damaged. i like that feature.



the non maring bottom is a seperate attachment that fits over the plate, it fits securely but does not screw or fasten to the bottom. i would have liked a more positive connection but it hasent given me problems yet.



the blade eject is sping loaded and will shoot out hot blades.



Does not accept U shank bosch blades only the T kind.



the saw comes with a splinter free plastic part and it works well. this is a feature found on the festool saw. be sure to order a extras because they wear out and you only get one.



dust extraction vacum connection is sold as a seperate part. i wish i would have ordered that at the time of purchase.



front of the saw gets hot. my hands touched it a few times. dont touch the front metal parts if hot.



the blade stabilazation works suprisingly well. i held a square to a 2x4 curve cut and had only a small wander. PROBLEM, the guides rest directly on the blade. the blade gets very hot and i sometimes hear sqweeking. after a short time the blade shows wear marks from the contact. parts that touch wear out. even carbide. a better design would be bearings like band saw guides. i havent had any problems but the design could be improved.



in all a great saw i recommend you buy one.

get dust extraction kit and splinter free parts at time of purchase.
