Not sure why but some buyers don't prefer brushless in reciprocating saw.
The only reason to "prefer" non-brushless is because they are much cheaper. There is no advantage to a brushed motor over a brushless.

It was hard for me not to buy this based on price and the need for a reciprocating saw but after reading reviews on Amazon, and comments here, I passed. Reviews are pretty terrible. You can try to pick out the good parts of the reviews and convince yourself otherwise but if you here what they are really saying, this saw is a disappointment unless you only use it for small niche work.

Understatement. Even with a 6Ah battery it's slower than a hacksaw. I only found one time it was useful. This saw was the only one of several brands that would fit in a tight space overhead. Spend your money on the Brushless subcompact. It's much better.

Thanks. I've got a full-size 12 Amp corded sawzall, so I think I'll hold out for a deal on the M12 Fuel
Unless you just have to have it tool only (would make sense if you already have an M12 driver or tons of batteries),

Just like the other guy. I have about 30 makita tools. This one is a dumpster fire. Get their full size brushless instead.

I fully converted to makita 18v. What tools are must have? I've got drill and impact driver, router, jigsaw, oscillating, angle grinder, sawzall, 7 1/4 saw. Can't decide what flash light to get. Also maybe a blower. I do have a easy to use handheld gas blower.

It sounds like you covered all the bases. There's a smaller blower that usually comes with the kits, and that thing is really good for dust and spot blowing, but it is just underpowered for blowing off around your whole house at once, it's good for like spot blowing your garage. I then got the XBU03Z (the full size blower) and this thing is a hand air cannon - well worth it. Also have their weedwacker and their push mower. For flashlights, I got the one that came with their freebee kit. I love that thing, honestly I'm planning to get more flashlights. For the opposite of blowing, get their vacuum with the cyclone attachment. Great value and almost as good as the dyson we have.

If your drill/driver are not brushless, wait for a sale and pick em up. I started with some kit ones that were good, but brushed. To me it's a noticeable difference. Normally on some projects my brushed ones get too hot after some work, or worse, my drill will stall out on some big drilling jobs and it smokes up. Brushless I'm gravy.

This is so true. I love Makita and this is not a tool. This is a toy you give to your 4 year old so he can feel like dad.

Just putting this out there. Anyone looking for a deal on this in order to steal catalytic converters, your days are numbered, and one day your family will be sued for the cost of removing brains and blood off the concrete below the wrong truck. Have a blessed day.
