FYI: I own a LOT of ryobi tools that I love. This isn't one of them. I have owned two of these and both experience pretty bad blade drift. Could be terrible luck on my end but I'm not gonna roll the dice a third time
I have had the brushless version for a couple years and have been very happy with it. No drift and no issues to speak of. Been a great tool for me.

I had this and had problems with the blade wandering on me, even with a straight-edge/speed-square. I upgraded to a brushless Dewalt and have been pleased with it and haven't had that issue

Not bad luck. Have the same tool, same issue. This thing is junk
I just got the brushless one about 2 weeks ago with the brushless nailer. Its the brushless ryobi jigsaw any better than the one in this deal? I havent tried it out yet. heres the link

I have a few Ryobi tools that are fantastic, but this wasn't one of them. Their corded version suffers the same issue from my experience.
