Description

Makita is a leader in Brushless motor technology, and the Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless cordless barrel grip Jig saw (model XVJ01Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) seamlessly combines precision and power with the efficiency of Brushless. The XVJ01Z is engineered to deliver the power and performance of a corded Jig saw — without the hassles of a cord. It is ideal for professional woodworkers, cabinetry makers, specialized residential construction workers and any Pro-Contractor seeking a best-in- class cordless Jig saw. The XVJ01Z features an ergonomically designed barrel grip, which is closer to the work surface for more precise cut. The Brushless motor is engineered for efficiency, with a variable speed control dial (800-3, 500 SPM) that enables users to match the speed to the application. Added features include 3 Orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. In addition, the efficient BL Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And since there are No carbon brushes, the BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. Convenience features include a tool-less blade Change system that allows for faster blade installation and removal, and a large 2-finger variable speed trigger with lock-on button. The heavy-gauge aluminum base is engineered for smooth, accurate cutting and added durability, and the dual L.E.D. Lights illuminate the work area. It weighs only 5.5 lbs. With battery (sold separately).

    • Excellent jigsaw, would buy again
Style: Tool Only
Great jigsaw. Have used it now to build 2 decks, it cuts 5/4 decking and 2x PT material very well, nice and square. The slow start thing takes a bit to get used to, but I do like it now. My only minor complaint is the clear plastic thing on the shoe plate that goes around the blade... ya I don't know what it's there for but it instantly gets coated with dust and then you can't see. Fortunately it's really easy to remove and throw away. I also really wish this had a dust blower but I guess Makita doesn't do that, not sure why. ... show more

    • It's a Makita...
Style: Tool Only
What you expect from Makita, top notch tool. Like the barrel design. Easy blade change. Smooth power. Great lighting on the blade.

This Makita replaced my last top-of-the-line Bosch corded jigsaw that finally bit the dust for the last time. It’s by no means cheap, but so far I’m happy with it. Smooth accurate cutting just like the Bosch, but quieter & no cord. Granted the soft start feature is different, but the user manual provides instructions to disable that feature if you can’t stand it. The push button on/off switch will take some getting used to. It’s not as straightforward as a trigger switch & until it becomes an automatic move, it will take a conscious effort to start & stop this saw. Other than that, I’m totally pleased with another great Makita tool to add to my 18 volt arsenal, and additionally, with just a slight modification to the retired Bosch jigsaw case, the new saw fits comfortably inside. ... show more

    • Precise, no vibration, once ya get used to the barrel grip it's a great jigsaw!
Style: Tool Only
Easy to use when you get used to the grip. On/off is the usual makita two button affair that takes gettin used to if you don't have other makita tools that feature it. My fave jigsaw now, can be very precise. Includes a dust collection tube if that's your jam. Buy it.

    • This thing is great
Style: Tool Only
I read a bunch of reviews on this product. Most were good but there were some complaints. Mostly about the size of the barrel or the lack of a trigger. I got this a few weeks ago and have used it for a few different projects. I have to say, I love it. The barrel is a bit thick but it’s not too thick. You can control the tool very easily. The lack of a trigger is not a problem at all. I like that after it’s turned on, it starts off slow, then speeds up when you start cutting. The thing cuts like a dream and there is little or no vibration at all. I’m using either 4.0 or 5.0 amp batteries and there is absolutely no problem with power. ... show more

    • Great tool overall
Style: Tool Only
I deducted a star for two reasons. First, the plastic sight/blade guard routinely pops out of place. This is truly annoying and very poor engineering. Hard to accept that type of lack of attention to detail in an expensive and otherwise high quality advanced tool Second, the soft start feature is flakey for me. At times it fails to ramp up. I am not sure why. Other than that, the tool is powerful and cuts accurately. This design makes it is easy to control and make very precise cuts. For people who have bought and and then complain about the design. Makita makes a conventional jigsaw for you. It is baffling why someone would buy this design if they did not like it. same with the lack of trigger. It is part of the design. Nobody tricked anyone. Just buy the other model. I have a number of jigsaws and still use them now and then for certain jobs. When I need precise cuts or am working with heavier materials, this is the one. It just has more power and control. Don't buy it if you want a trigger or don't like barrel grip, you may not be happy unless you're open to experiencing the benefits of this is a saw. If you want power and precision, this is the way to go. Makita, fix the plastic blade guard. Seriously. ... show more

    • Smooth cutter
Style: Tool Only
I use this saw a lot doing trim and t&g ceiling work. Cuts super smooth. Unlock and go buttons took some getting used to, but it is the same configuration as my makita router. I at first questioned the lack of a trigger, but eventually came to like the auto speed. Really nice saw.
