I bought this Bosch jig saw some months ago, replacing a Skil brand saw I'd had for a couple years. It came with a hard plastic carrying case.
The positive: Powerful. Nice variable speed control. Easy blade replacement. Nice handle - fits comfirtably in my hand. It scrolls well without jumping or chewing the wood. The saw even seems to cut straighter than the Skil it replaced.
The negative: I can't think of any!
I've taken several months to put this saw through the paces and have found it up to every job. It performs today as solidly as the day I bought it. I'll buy another Bosch if I ever wear this one out - though I'm not sure I ever will. In an age where a lot of power tools are treated like "consumables" that are expected to wear out in a couple years (or less), that's significant.
I have a couple other Bosch power tools and have found every one of then to be top notch. They may be a little more money (certainly the Bosch jig saw was more than the Skil jig saw it replaced), but as the old saw goes, "You get what you pay for." (OK, pathetic pun alert!)
Bottom line? Buy it and saw up a storm.
