Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ryobi Jig Saws have come a long way from my first (worn out) Ryobi Jig Saw of around 10 years ago... [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ryobi Jig Saws have come a long way from my first (worn out) Ryobi Jig Saw of around 10 years ago. The LED light that lights the way at your point of sawing is great. The new brushless design serves up more power and I would think the batteries would last much longer. The trigger lock is very handy also. This lets you set the speed on this variable speed jig saw. I have not tried the Orbital Adjustment yet. This allows for a smother cut according to the material being sawed. This unit is for the tool only, no battery is included. I have many RYOBI battery tools so this was not a problem, ONE + batteries. The base can be adjusted from -45 degrees through +45 degrees for angle cutting. I highly recommend this Jig Saw.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Uses T-style blades and they lock easily in place using the handy lever. The jigsaw included one blade and it worked well. I'll buy more blades to give this saw a full test and more complete review soon. It feels comfortable to use and the light is handy to staying on target. The base plate slides nicely over wood and is easy to tilt for various degrees of angled edge cutting. The gauge was a little difficult to use to acquire a perfect 45 degree slant. Will take more practice ... would have been nice if the ridges provided a "click" to ensure the place was locked exactly where I wanted it. Orbital adjustments allow for scrolling or curving cuts and will need a blade with 10-12 teeth. The batteries click in and out easily. This saw will get a lot of use.

Okay, this was my first time owning and using a jigsaw, so I’m not the best person to review, but I have other Ryobi tools that have worked out great so I have this one a try when I needed a jigsaw. It worked great. It was SUPER easy to place and replace the blades depending on what type of cut I needed or what materials were being cut. The power and battery life were never an issue on the jobs I did (6amp Lithium+HP battery) and the cutting was surprisingly easy. I expected to have to wrestle the saw a bit, but everything was easier and quicker than expected. Now how often can you say THAT about a home project, huh? I highly recommend this tool.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This RYOBI 18-Volt ONE+ HP Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Jig Saw replaced a thirty-year-old corded Craftsman Jig Saw that has seen lots of use over the years. I am impressed with the power and features of this Ryobi brushless jig saw. The light is really nice for lighting the work surface and highlighting the lines to be followed. The speed adjustment, blade tilt and blade replacement all operate smoothly and easily. I am probably way behind the times because I am real impressed with the T-Shank jig saw blades, they are so much easier to replace than the old U-Shank blades. The brushless motor provides plenty of power and it isn’t a battery hog. The RYOBI 18-Volt ONE+ HP Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Jig Saw is a nice addition to my arsenal of Ryobi battery powered tools, I definitely would recommend it to others.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first jigsaw that I have owned, but I have used older corded jigsaws that I would never touch again after using this. It makes quick work of the job. It is the tool only, but I already have batteries for it. That being said, I tried this out on a pressure treated 2x4 to see how it would do. When you have it on w/out orbital cutting; it is smooth and accurate but slow. If you turn on the orbital cutting and higher speeds, it makes very quick work of the job, but it does leave a rougher cut and minor chipping; this might be corrected with different blades though. I love the LED light shining on the work surface too. I haven't tried cutting metal or using it to cut designs as I only have a wood blade that came with it, and haven't purchased others yet. It seems strong and sturdy, but with that it has some weight behind it. I like the trigger lock button as well and the blades are super easy to change with the quick detach. Also you can store extra blades in the base pad of the tool. I would recommend this product.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Tool broke after a few uses, support nonexistant I used the tool for a couple of small projects. The (ncluded Ryobi) blade will no longer release. Ryobi offered three support centers - one (Home Depot) said it would take 10-15 weeks to even look at the issue, the other two do not service power tools. Ryobi did not offer other options beyond "Dialing for dollars" with Home Depot stores. The 3 year warranty is not useful if Ryobi doesn't actually stand behind it. Not recommended until service issues are sorted out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a happy owner of many Ryobi products. Honestly, I was not a big fan of the Ryobi brand a few years ago, because of many things, well, the color, design, and the brand’s target to DIY users. I changed my yang of Ryobi after I bought its string trimmer for really good price. I started to think that I probably don’t need to spend a lot money on pro-level tools because Ryobi’s quality seems decent and its price is unbeatable. I know there is a non-brushless version of the cordless JIG saw out there, and I don’t have one for side by side comparison. But after unboxing, I am surprised by the build quality of this brushless jig saw. It’s definitely more polished most of my other Ryobi products (maybe because it is brushless and thus on the more premium side?) The bottom metal shoe seems to be made of really good material, the hand feels very comfortable to hold in my hand. It has a good amount of weight. By the way, there is a free saw blade that comes with the package. I have not got a chance to use it on a wood project yet, but I am already excited to plan for the next one (for example, a radiator cover which is on my TODO list).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I do a lot of home improvement projects and I wanted to add to my power tool collection so I chose this Ryobi One+ HP 18V brushless cordless jig saw. The locking trigger gives me more control for detailed cutting and the brushless motor delivers faster cutting and longer run time so I can finish projects in less time. I also like being able to change the blades faster with the easy release blade lever. Really love this tool.

Does it cut straight? Cutting a 1" piece of wood my doesn't cut straight from top to bottom

Asked by: Leyder918
It should if you don’t force it. If you want total accuracy use a mitre or circular saw.

I really don't think this tool will work with tile and concrete cutting. I have never seen any blades for either.

Why does the brushless version cost so much more?

Asked by: dano
Why? It’s a completely different beast compared to the old lightweight original tool.  The first thing out of the box you’ll notice that it’s a much heavier tool.. The added weight actually provides added stability while cutting plywood sheets using saw horses and minimize the tendency to “walk” out of the initial score on irregular sized molding,trim, and metal/PFC pipes. Cut denser hardwood’s as easy as pine. And the #1 reason for me is this, I can’t burn up this brushless jigsaw no matter how hard and long I operate it.  I can’t say that for my two jigsaws and a reciprocating saw all 18v that I smoked summer 2021.

Can you adjust the depth of the cut??

Asked by: Bandit
No, Either get a packet of different length or sometimes it works if your hitting bottom, pick up the back to adjust length of cut.
