Everything is good like battery life, build, power and accuracy. Only criticisms are I wish it had a compartment to slide spare blades in and a button to turn off/on the slow start feature which I personally didn't have an issue with but puts a lot of people off buying.

I have owned my saw for about a year and really don't like it. the thing will only run very slow until you put a load on the cut, ok for just hacking wood but no control for delicate or precision cutting. have taken back to Makita uk and they say that is how it is meant to work. its a shame as all my kit is Makita but looks like I will have to consider looking to other tool brands for my jig saw.

So far so good . Like the quick release for blade change . Plenty powerful tool took a birdmouth out of a 8*4 . Recommend 5 ah battery too will go through 3 ah quickly . Arrived quickly with dhr202 both from Powertool mate found them the cheapest would buy from them again 👍🏻

Superb quality machine, should have bought one of these a long time ago. Not able to fault it. So easy to use & great not having a power cord to cut through. 10/10

It was a present for my son, so although this isn't a personal review, I can say that he is more than happy with it. He has sent me videos of him using it and is really chuffed with it. He uses all Makita power tools and this was the final piece in the collection.

Awesome piece of kit, well balanced, handy led light and blower to keep cutting line clear. 👍👍👍. Being brushless lasts well on a battery too. Very happy purchase.

Makita are good quality and will satisfy most job that need to be done around the home and work, just need to remember that these are battery power and do not have the same grunt as AC power tools, but the freedom from trailing leads is the bonus

When working this jigsaw works perfectly, the downside is that it has a pressure sensor on it that when you put pressure on the blade it starts working at operating speed otherwise it stays at idle, and it just never seems to kick in quick enough, very annoying

Hate on/off button! Hate late speed function! Hate fix-on button! Love how it cut. Great speed! Don’t discharge batteries that quick
