    I have it and love it. There are obviously other fine options out there, but I really like it. Powerful, good vibration control. You can’t adjust the foot (but I never really do that anyway, I just use a different sized blade). It’s a beast with the big stacked lithium battery, but even with the normal 5ah it does a fine job.

      You can adjust the foot, there is a round button on the bottom of the tool on the foot end just push it in and pull or push the foot 👍

    This tool is outside my use case entirely but, it's impressive seeing how well the tool is able to stay in place 7:53 & 8:02 are significant moments imo; looking at the arms I have a feeling if it's something strong or repetitive one is going to wear your arm faster as you keep trying to have your forearm keep it in place without so much vibrating force against you.

    I have a few 24v flex tools. They are well made and work well. I do have an issue with the batteries leaking. I have found a number of other people having the same problem. Flex seems to be good at replacing them, but it is hard to have confidence in the product if you never know when the batteries will fail. Plus, it is a pain cleaning up the mess.

      It's only the first gen, non stacked lithium batteries that leak. I have 9 batteries in total. I've only had 1 first gen, 2.5ah battery leak but it still works. Flex let me keep it and sent me a new one without hesitation.

    I've been through 2 saws now. I'm on my 3rd but it's just overheating and grease comes out so I'm blowing the seals, I'm a iron worker and demo, I use them hard. But have had no problems on replacement. Plenty of power and the front weight is great for out stretch cuts.

    Dewalt needs to update there sawzaw. Make a new 60v one with orbital and a vibration reducing counter weight inside like Flex , Metabo HPT ,and Makita. Increase the stroke length to 1.25 inches and speed at or more than 3000 strokes per minute as well. Add a speed dial with the variable speed trigger and an adjustable shoe. The top 2 saws ( Metabo HPT and Makita xgt 2nd generation) have all these features already come on dewalt. Flex is really pushing it but I think it's right behind the top 2 do to missing some of those features just my opinion.

      sawzall? Whats a sawzaw?
      The Dewalt 54v saw cuts harder than any in the industry, maybe they could cut down on the vibration, all this other stuff is just gimmicks.

    Smeeshed the `Like` button for that nass-like review of that nass-like recip. :) I think the most important thing for us as consumers is that we have these companies continually competing and working to bring us better quality and more capable tools at competitive prices.

      Don’t. I am a demolition contractor, my crews, all use Milwaukee. Last year I bought a flex sawzall and a bunch of batteries. I am not impressed with flex. The batteries fall off under heavy vibration, the current power isn’t as impressive as Milwaukee and I’ve had too blades loose pop off. I watched a bunch of RUclips reviews and did the research, I thought Flex was what’s next- turns out Milwaukee is still king.

    I do like what flex is doing but every flex tool I have used they are just so heavy compared to other brands and the batteries go dead so damn quick.
    I use other brands and can use a battery seems like 3 times as long. Maybe I got some bad batteries I don't know but every time I use a flex tool I. The real world it has always happened that way.

    As much as I love Flex power IMHO hands down the best, and enjoyed this video, you are too funny and talented to limit yourself to power tools. Don’t get me wrong power tools are my favorite subject. But I wish you would do political comedy because you are the funniest man in the world … in a good way .
