MakitaDJR185Z 18V Li-Ion LXT Mini Reciprocating Saw - Batteries and Charger Not Included

I can get in places that are unreachable by most cutters. Very handy little tool. The blade change is slow and involves some unscrewing but minor inconvenience really. Overall a great little tool

Really good, very handy to get into places the bigger rip saw can’t, I’ve used this a good few times now and am really happy with it. I use this one more than my bigger Makita rip saw.Still going strong

Incredibly useful tool, no idea what I did before I owned this. It's compact, lightweight and versatile. I've had it on site now for two weeks and it's been a great emergency use tool, so far it's cut through wood, metal, and plaster in some really awkward places.

Great for pipes especially plastic, Smaller timber. Use shorter blades, they seem to be better. Great light tool. Value for money is low as for the same money you can buy a big reciprocal saw, not sure why I bought this one now instead of a bigger one. Its handy and small.

As a tool its well made. However the cycle of movement is not enough. I ended up getting a normal saw out to finish the job.All in all great quality, but it doesn't do the job.Also the battery version drama I had to get the right one was unwelcomed. It has to be their own brand, which sucks.It would have been nice to make it clear that generic batteries WILL NOT work with this.Not a great brand experience to be honest. A lot of faff and in the end it didn't even do the job I wanted it for.

Read the reviews. Asked myself do I really need one? As ive managed now for 30 years without one. Anyway took the plunge and brought one. Oh my goodness its fantastic. Very well made, well balanced in the hand. Has a concealed allen key in the handle for changing the blade which is a nice touch. Comes with 2 blades a metal one and a wood one both very sharp. I would recommend removing the battery when changing the blade in case the machine comes to life and cuts your fingers. I now have this as a permanent feature on my work bench. So when i need to cut some metal bar or tube its a piece of cake. Also you can use this in an upright position as a type of jigsaw as its got a secondary power switch along the bottom of the body of the saw. Battery lasts quite a long time, ive even purchased a long blade for pruning the tree branched in the garden. I should have brought one of these years ago. A1+

Great tool . Purchased to help dismantle an old shed. Done the job with ease. Purchased additional blades as only get 2 in the box which are a bit on the short side.

I purchased this saw as hand sawing was getting hard for me. It is excellent. I already had a battery for my drill which fits this saw. It is easy to put the blade in and cuts well. What more could you ask for? A bargain compared to other saws
