Lost out as I just bought one before the sale and cannot return (final sale item, different store). Made short work of cutting an interior door for a pass-through cat door.

Fair warning, thoroughly test these out before the return window expires. I only conducted basic tests with mine and failed to realize my unit was still defective until it was too late. (My unit couldn't cut remotely straight, even using a straight edge.)

I no longer buy from Direct Tools. Quality and service fell off a cliff in the past few years.

Out of a few dozen orders since they became a thing, the last 5 orders or so:

were canceled weeks afterwards with no explination
had a 2 USD proprietary broken component in a large, 250 USD+ package and was told to ship everything back
had a 40v dead Ryobi battery on receipt on a weed wacker/blower/ etc. kit and was told to ship everything back
Far more damage on refurb units than I have ever gotten from them
Really, really, frustrating customer service; when you do get a response it is so Ai laden with how horribly sorry they are and how much they regret that you are having an issue and how much you can feck off by not having human eyes look at the issue at any point is maddening.

Don't get this version, get the brushless version. This version has a foot tilt adjustment UNDER the foot so you have to pick the tool up in order to adjust the foot's tilt making it impossible to just match it to the work and set the tilt angle. You have to keep picking it up, adjusting the tilt, then puting it back down to see if you got the angle close, etc. The brushless version moved the tilt adjustment to the back of the tool so with that model you can just set the tool on the work and adjust/set the foot's tilt while resting it against the work to get the exact angle you want the first time. This single annoying issue makes paying 2x or 3x this price to get the brushless version worth it for me and most of my friends who have tried both versions.

You probably just saved me $30… That feature isn't really that important to me, but I am so on the fence about this. Just the slightest comment will push me one way or the other face.

You gotta square it. Takes less than a minute. You should be doing this with any jigsaw regardless of whether its new or reconditioned.

I have this same jig saw. I replaced a radial saw for this... I'm a modest homeowner who doesn't need to rip plywood in large quantities, but this will cut 2x4's and handle most home projects just fine. Especially with some Diablo blades. Also, take the extra step and pick up the cut guide that attaches to this.

Exactly. One quick look at Home Depot and they had $129 brushless and $79 like this one, so $35 seems like a slick deal.

I want it to cut one six inch circular vent in a solid exterior door for a portable AC to use if my central air goes out. Going to add a screen and a vent grate to hide the hole, and plug it till I need it.

Don't do much wood cutting but found this youtube for beginners [youtube.com]. Don't know if it's good but it seems to be.

The reason they have so many reconditioned ones is that this jig doesnt cut on a line, it veers. Look at all the reviews, they say the same. This price is not a big deal, there are lots on ebay for the same price. I dumped mine.

It has an orbital setting that people largely likely don't know how to use appropriately and will cause veering, as you say. The knob on the side tightens up the blade depending upon the material you're cutting - I have this exact model.

Thank you for the tip/reminder.
