Are these OK for cutting 40mm worktops?
At these prices, use once and throw away!
Depends on the cut you want...
For curved cuts that will be hidden under the flange of a sink or hob,
then the cheap jigsaw will get the job done.
For curved cuts that will be visible then you either need a top end
jigsaw, or better still a big 1/2" router and suitable template (which
you can cut with said top end jigsaw).
For straight cuts a circular saw or even a manual panel saw will do a
much better job.
