I recently used a handheld circular saw and found it much easier to use
than my jigsaw, so I'm thinking of buying one.

The one I used was rechargable but they seem to be VERY expensive, so
I'll probably get a mains one, especially since I always find that my
rechargable tools have run down when I want to use them. Can anyone
recommend one? I'll be using it for general d-i-y, including cutting
laminate flooring (presumably I need a fine-toothed blade for that).

For a mid range price the saws made by Skil (now part of Bosch) can be
more than adequate. If you want a good top end one the Hitachi make some
of the best I have used.
