Excellent Product
Per previous warning about the blade not clamping into saw I took the care to make sure it inserted correctly. The clamping is different as it twist around but was not difficult to get blade in. It was used to trim some branches before the cold settled in for the Season and worked very nicely. Very well made and seems to have the quality Sears is so well known for.

not so happy
i bought this saw the other day and the first time i used it the blade keep coming out while i was working. i'm hoping that i just got one with a part missing in the blade holder. i at this time would not recomend any saw with this quick blade canger. i'm taking it back and may or may not get another from craftsman. i'll be checking the blade holder befor i leave the store. i usally am very happy with my craftsman purcase. we'll have to see if their other reciprocating saws have the same problem.

Hazard!

I had the same problems with blades falling out. I just bought this today, and it took less than 2 minutes to have problems with it. I thought other people writing the bad reviews were just putting the blades in wrong - no, this product really has problems. Not only does the blade fall out, but one time it flew up and almost hit me. This is not just a piece of junk, this is a hazard and should not be sold!

It Does The Job

The variable speed on this solidly made reciprocating saw makes it a useful tool for many jobs. If you need to cut off a bolt or saw off that rusting clothesline pole or prune a couple limbs off the juniper this tool handles it all. If you need a finer cut to shape some quarter round or make a notch in a 2x2 just put less pressure on the trigger and use a finer blade. The work lights are a great bonus in tight spaces. I've used the saw a dozen times when others just weren't right. I'm glad to have it.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

NICE UNIT!!!

I purchased this to do some remodeling in our living room....THIS THING FREAKING ROCKS!!!. The variable speed control is easy to control and changing the blades is super easy.(no tools needed). I also purchased the saw blade assortment with it and this tool will cut what ever you lean it up against.

I would recommend this product to a friend.

Unsatisfactory

On-line Product features are misleading! The product description indicated a metal case was included with this saw, which happened to be missing when I opened the box.

Good choice for Harry Homeowner

For the price it's a descent saw... if you use it a lot, go for the 12 amp since it has more power, you'll be glad you did. The LED is nice but more of a gimmick since you more than likely wouldn't use this tool in low light conditions or for intricate cuts.

I would recommend this product to a friend.
