Indeed, the power cord measures 2.5 m in length to give you all the freedom of movement you want. Besides this aspect, the device is 13.5 cm long, 55.1 cm wide, and 31.2 cm high.

Most of our Pros don’t cite length as much of a concern as weight, though. However, if you’re looking for something to get you into tight spaces, there are some excellent cordless compact models to consider. The grip is relatively comfortable, thanks to its Soft Grip coated handle. Furthermore, it is made entirely from a rubber coating. Weighing only 4.54 kg, you can easily handle the device, even when working at height. In the overall landscape of corded reciprocating saws, Makita is definitely on the lightweight side of the scale. It weighs 7.8 pounds with the cord. That’s well under Skilsaw’s beefy 12.2 pounds in the 15-amp class and a pretty nice drop in weight over Metabo HPT’s 8.7 pounds in this class. Kenny’s life around power tools started early. His grandfather was an airplane mechanic in WW2 and took up woodworking as a hobby after retiring from the power industry. Building everything from bookshelves to lazy Susans, he became extremely accomplished while his young grandson observed, fascinated at the way raw wood could turn into something both beautiful and functional. In fact, Kenny still uses several pieces that his grandfather made more than 30 years ago.Without Metabo HPT in the mix on wood cutting, the Makita JR3050T would easily take home the crown as the fastest cutting saw in the class. Still, it’s a close second and an easy saw for us to recommend in any material. It’s particularly helpful in metal and PVC cutting, so it’s a great fit for electricians and plumbers. Realistically, it’s a great performing saw no matter why you’re looking at the 10 – 12-amp power class. Vibration Control Even smaller hands may get a firm hold on the front handle because it shrinks down to a reasonably manageable size. It’s a rather comfortable saw to wield and both handles have a lot of rubber overmold. Ease of use Buy this if you want a lightweight, compact saber saw with consistent cutting speeds in all materials. Only suitable if you need higher cutting speeds and are willing to trade size and weight for a larger motor.
