This is the second DeWalt 18v reciprocating saw I have owned. I am an industrial fencing contractor by trade and use these saws to cut though lots of 1 5/8" O.D. Sch. 40 top rail and when needed 2 3/8" O.D. Sch. 40 post as well. From a power stand point both saws performed very well. My first saw was an older version then this one and it lasted me several years of hard cutting and hard use. By the nature of the work it isn't uncommon for me to partially drop the saw on the ground after use as long as I'm not on concrete and the first saw survived this well and often was dirty and muddy. Eventually one of the contacts for the battery completely broke off and when I looked for a replacement part I seen that it was $55.00 because DeWalt has the battery contacts integrated with the control switch, which also happened to be a more complicated reversing switch used in a drill. This design may save them a tiny bit of initial production money, but it's ridiculous to service since you can buy a new saw for $115.00. With my electrical engineering back ground I scoured every source and part book I could think of looking to buy the switch from the original manufacturer, or to find a possible work around of the contacts given a few modifications and couldn't come up with anything viable. I think I may encapsulate the contacts in a soft silicone, keeping where the battery plugs in clear of course, to help isolate them from vibration and excessive movement.
Now onto the current saw. This saw has one important difference with my old one. The new one doesn't have extra material that flairs out and around to support the entire top of the battery. Some of the customer imaged show a used saw that has the feature I am speaking of. This new saw lasted about 1/10th the use of the older saw before a battery contact became bent and now it needs to be replaced, so I now have two DeWalt saws that are in perfect working order except for needing a ridiculously priced $55.00 battery contact replacement, and the second saw almost looks to be engineered to fail quicker since the battery is held less securely then the older model it is only natural that vibration, falls and bumps will destroy the contacts ability to keep pressure on the battery, but of course, there's almost no way they'd fail under warranty, and likely won't fail for the legions of DIY users out there that worship DeWalt, and in exchange DeWalt may save $0.05 in plastic on each saw by removing the extra support. I'm think I may buy some long blades for the DeWalt jig saw I have and see how it cuts pipe, being it will cut a 2x4 faster then the reciprocating saw because it has oribital blade action, it maybe a better all around tool in situations where it's size and shape doesn't get in the way.

I have both this saw and the coded Dewalt reciprocating saw. I generally like Dewalt tools but I can't recommend this one. One would expect a difference in power between the corded and cordless model, but there is another very fundamental difference. Let me explain with an example of how I tried to use these saws yesterday. I was replacing a window in my house with glass block which required me to increase the size of the opening in the house by about 1.5". To do this, I decided that I needed to saw (rip) through a layer of dry wall, a 2x4 in the 3.5" dimension, and a 1/2" fiber board. I needed to rip off 3/4 of an inch along each 5' side.
I first tried with the cordless model. It would cut through wall, but jumped and rattled so badly that the cut was very very rough and it jumped so much that it destroyed the drywall. I then switched to the corded model. It smoothly and cleanly sliced through the wall. No comparison at all. My net is that if you don't absolutely need a cordless model, go for the corded one and the Dewalt is a good choice there.

I bought this saw to replace my 5 year old DeWalt saw (it died) that I use on the job. I was impressed by the new saw's features, in particular the tool less blade receptacle that will take the blades in the standard vertical position but also has an added receptacle that accepts the blades horizontally. The shoe can be adjusted in 3 positions out from the saw as well. These are handy features that my old saw lacked.

A sawzall without a cord is a handy tool to have. I have used it quite a bit so far for prunning tree limbs. I love the fact that you can mount the blade in four different positions. A sawzall is one of those tools that when you need one there is no substitute. Dewalt quality is very good.
