Milwaukee wrote the book on Sawzalls, and this new one continues the legend. I looked at all the models both here on Amazon and on the factory site. I will be using it for home projects so I didn't feel I need either maximum power or orbital action. I have used it on two different projects-pruning and beam cutting and I'm totally satisfied! I needed to flush cut the end of a 4"x6" beam in a difficult spot. It cut through like butter, and at the end of the cut which ended at a projecting eave, I could feather the switch and just cut the beam without damaging the eave. I think the orbital action would not have made that possible-to much bouncing around. I've also used it for heavy pruning and with the ability to get the blade into tight places makes all the difference! It sure has all the power I'll ever need, and it's not quite as heavy as the 15amp model. If you don't need it for heavy demo or construction I think you'll be happy! Added bonus-MADE IN USA!!

This is the best reciprocating saw on the market and I would like to have given 4.9 out of 5. It is compact and not a monster. I find that Milwaukee is very conservative in their designs and I hate it. Some tools look like they were made in the 1980's even though they are from 2010. This tools actually looks sleek and kinda modern (finally).
Now to the bad...the pivoting shoe is not adjustable! That is the only complaint I have about this saw. Why would you not include an adjustable shoe Milwaukee... I mean was it that hard to incorporate a small stupid, cheap mechanism that allows the shoe to be adjusted. It would have cost a few more pennies and IF you had done that, I would have bought 2 of these saws.
I have used reciprocating saws before and I always find the shoe adjustment to be very necessary, you see when cuting a pipe the shoe keeps the blade perfectly perpendicular to the pipe so the cut is perfect... everytime. Now when you got a wall behind the pipe you want to adjust the shoe so that it only cuts the pipe and not the wall.
I am a bit angry and sad at the same time that Milwaukee missed this, I would have gladly paid 10 bucks more for this feature.

When it comes to reciprocating saws, I have tried most brands during my construction career,and Milwaukee remains the hallmark of the bunch. I ordered this updated 12A model, and I am in love with it. Plenty of power, great cord, awesome ergonomics, and probally one of the last brands of reciprocating saws to be assembled in the USA. The problem was deciding on whether to choose the 3/4 or the 1-1/8 stroke length. In tight spots the shorter is nice, because these tools can beat you up between dimension lumber. I ordered the longer stroke, giving a wide wear band on blades and cutting faster, accepting that their will be a time or two that I get in situation where I'll end up bloodying a knuckle or two and bending or snapping a blade. This kit does not come with a free blade, but I think Milwaukee is wise to keep the price competitive by limiting give away blades. Most guys that buy Milwaukee have at least few blades laying around -if not order an assortment with the tool and enjoy the free shipping. Milwaukee -thank you for manufacturing the best.
