Default Which jig saw?

your suggestions for a good
quality jig saw are welcome. Thank you.


I have been through a few.
The ones that stood out were Bosches.
I MUCH prefer the barrel grip Bosch over the D-Handles.
I now use Milwaukee's jigsaw and love it to bits.
Just wish I had bought the barrel grip version, because on the D
handled one the switch is awkwardly huge and tends to turn the thing on
when just picking it up...(I cut a piece of the switch paddle off to
stop that.)
Made in Germany...yup...(maybe an AEG or Metabo piece...who knows these
days, eh?)
I'd buy a Bosch again...but just love this Milwaukee.
