Makita JV0600K Top Handle Jig Saw, with Tool Case

Excelente producto

This is a very fine saw. Design is simple and functional, and the build is robust and precise. The hand grip is good, the blade-changing mechanism is easy to operate, and the base slides nicely on the work surface. The saw's vibration is minimal (perhaps a notch above a power drill), which makes precise work much easier. I have so far used this saw in a project involving precise cuts in a 1-inch solid oak board, and I am very pleased with both its precision and power. Following up on questions about blade compatibility, I can confirm that this saw accepts the commonly available T blades; their shank is identical to what Makita calls a B blade, and it locks into the saw's blade holder as firmly and precisely as the original Makita B blade.

Let me just say I own a Bosch jig saw, I’ve had it almost 10 yrs, I wanted to buy one for my son as a birthday gift but that particular model is hard to find. I jumped onto google and started researching jig saws, obviously I’ve had no need to do so, because I’ve been thrilled with mine. I wanted my son to have an equally great tool that will last hopefully a life time. After a few days of searching I concluded that the Makita JV0600K is a great tool, not a starter saw or entry level tool, its well made and worth every cent. If your looking for cheap, you’ll get cheap.From small projects to Job sites... you will be glad you bought it.( PS. He loved it)

Jigsaw is sturdy and seems to be built to last many years to come with moderate to have use.

Bought this model to replace my old Bosch 1587. It does have excellent balance, very little vibration, and the blade change mechanism works quite well. As a trim carpenter, I use jigsaws primarily for coping molding. I found that the blade easily comes off track and the base opening is a little large and allows the molding to come through and get hung up. The dial for the orbital settings isn’t very smooth and I can see it becoming a problem down the road. I would highly recommend for general use but unfortunately doesn’t work for my needs.

I recently needed to pick up a jig saw and ran across this one on Amazon. I chose Makita brand over other popular brands because of the quality. I've got other Makita tools that I've used now for 25 years with NO trouble whatsoever. This saw feels, sounds, and works with that same quality. The shipping was faster than anticipated, which is a huge plus alone. The saw runs clean and true with every cut so far. I've used it to cut out plywood and solid african mahogany with very limited chipping, using the included blade. Additionally, I was very impressed by the very, very smooth cut that the saw provided - little to no sanding, really. Great tool and a great addition to all my other stuff!

Excellent shop tool. Powerful unit, tracks very good.

Great product and fast shipping. Started using it right after delivery and very pleased
