have been satsified with my bosch jigsaw
but it would really benefit from having a light not sure why there is no light it would not add much to the cost and it would be really helpful also annoying to have to blow out the dust so it would be another useful feature to have a nozzle to blow out the dust otherwise it is a great tool the quick blade change is excellent as is the blade angle of cut adjustment |

Wow. My Bosch is about 20 years old now. Good top handle design. These lights and blower things had not been invented back then. |

On drills lights make sense because you can and do drill when you do not have a good site line to what you are drilling. And drill in small enclosed spaces with poor visibility. But jigsaws are usually used where you can see what you are cutting and follow the line. With drills you are laying on your belly with your arm stretched out and drilling a hole or driving a screw. You don't operate jigsaws like that. So lights on jigsaws make just a little more sense than lights on circular saws. Do people want lights on their worm drive Skilsaw? |

Of course you can always go green, but even green doesn't suck with the saw's mechanism, they just provide a dust port to which a (preferably green) vacuum can be attached. |

FWIW my Milwaukee jig saw has a blower and it blows. Works much better with the shop vac attached and running. |
