5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful and Reliable Reciprocating Saw

The DEWALT 20V MAX Reciprocating Saw is a solid tool for tough cutting jobs. With 3,000 strokes per minute and a variable speed trigger, it’s easy to control and delivers excellent performance. Lightweight and durable, it’s perfect for both DIY and professional tasks. Keep in mind it’s a bare tool, so a battery is sold separately. Great addition to any tool collection!

Got this to upgrade from an ancient corded reciprocating saw. Should have done it sooner. Very pleased with the unit. Lots of power for a cordless saw and reasonable ergonomics. The quick blade release is a VERY appealing feature. I would recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent tool, but some flaws
Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2024
I recently got this tool to cut PVC and ABS pipes for a DIY project. The tool feels solid and well made, but it has a few pretty annoying problems:

1. The blades do not lock in properly. I got DeWalt blades too. Once locked in, there's significant side-to-side play, as if the calipers do not fully tighten over the blade in the locked position. That seems to me like a pretty major flaw, since at high speed the back-and-forth motion of the saw can easily push the blade sideways and snap it. I don't know what the folks at Dewalt were thinking.. maybe they designed the saw for thicker blades and the recent ones they sell are just not thick enough (cost savings??) resulting in this arguably unsafe condition.

2. The angle of attack seems wrong. If you look closely at the photos, you can see that the blade installs at a certain angle relative to the axis of motion, which means it is not possible to use this saw like one would use a manual saw , where the teeth move back and forth perfectly along the saw's axis of motion. Instead, the teeth move away from the material when the blade pushes forward, and subsequently they hit and bite into the material at an angle when the blade pulls back. This introduces more vibration than necessary and makes the cuts rougher than they would be otherwise if the blade teeth were to simply move back and forth along the axis of motion.

3. The shoe at the tip is flimsy. There is a metal shoe at the tip that allows the saw body to push against and align with the material for a 90 degree cut. This shoe swivels up-down, but it's not possible to "lock" it in any given position. It will swivel while cutting, as one moves the saw along the material. I don't see the point of this. It introduces yet another point of instability during cuts, in addition to the side-to-side blade play.
I'm happy

I got this as open box so the price was great for what this thing can do. I use it on site for the times I need to cut through studs or joists. The larger XR version is great for frequent/ heavy use. But this version, with the 4 way directional blade option, can hold its own by being so maneuverable. It can be used with 1 hand or 2. Got more recoil to it than the larger versions, i just hold it tighter.
