It's a Milwaukee that should tell u all the need to know, 👎

The gen-4 keeps stopping on me, sending it off to get it fixed 4 times in less than 6 months. It is junk.

This thing comes in handy all the time. It’s small so it can get into tight places and you can use it with 1 hand. You can cut anything with it from wood to metal or pvc piping

As a plumber I use that saw all the time

Too bad Ryobi with the biggest battery can't beat 60% of its torque specs. 1800 in.lb struggles for 900.

So far, Ryobi One+ tools have met our needs; I've never used the recip for demolition, but it does well enough with 3" (+/-) tree limbs outside. I would definitely consider "better" now (probably Milwaukee; we got a few M12 tools recently), but are sufficiently invested in the One+ line and batteries that switching without a clear need probably doesn't make sense. Thanks for this review though; if the Ryobis ever die (none have in over 15 years of homeowner use), I'll probably bite the bullet and switch to Milwaukee.

This a great saw for service plumbers! I rarely need more power than this and it gets into a lot of tight spots that an 18v cant. And its lighter so its easier to carry around. 12v is the way to in my line of work! Lol

Seems like u got the orbital setting different on both. Ryboi smooth cut on 0, Milwaukee is on 3 faster cut 😂

i have had and still have a hackzall m12 non fuel.best thing since sliced bread.i use milwaukee short blades that were designed for it it is the most controllable reciprocating saw on the market here in the u.k. i have lent it to jobsite colleagues and they have said they hate recip. saws apart from my m12 milwaukee because they are uncontrollable. i amainly do heating and plumbing.if you are obsessed with cutting large wood get a chainsaw or dewalt alligator. love your channel, john.

I’d choose the regular base m18 over the m12 fuel any day for a DIY homeowner I’d say the m12 is perfect but for a tradesmen you’re gonna need the m18 just the bottom line.

F**k made in Vietnam ryobi.

Those percentages are in comparison to the NON brushless version of the RYOBI JIGSAW not vs. other brands. It still would hold its own against other brands, i just wanted to correct your experiment where it was wrong when i caught it.

As a garage door residential/ commercial installer, and service tech, sawzalls are a great and quite useful tool. I can see having both full size, and compact. Having the M12 tool collection is a huge plus. For heavy duty commercial work, i used a mix a corded tools and battery operating where feasible.

I was taught (50+ yrs ago) that you should start the saw before you touch the blade to the wood. For any type of saw. Wondering why you don't do that.

Do you have a review on the M12 Jigsaw ?

I just got the m12 fuel impact, m12 fuel hammer drill, m12 fuel cut off saw, a m12 2.0ah battery, a m12 2.5ah battery, a m12 4.0ah battery and the m12 charger for $270. I was going to just buy the cut off saw, a battery and charger, but that was $210, so the choice was easy. I am a maintenance electrician, so the m12 platform is perfect for my needs.

Why not give away the best tools? Don't be silly, then what would be the incentive for people to pay more to get them? I am not an impact driver snob I suppose, because if it's not going to be ultra-compact so it doesn't fit in the tightest spaces anyway, then I'm fine with their brushed P235. I got it from Direct Tools as a blemished item for $21 delivered. I don't use an impact driver all day in a profession so I don't need a big overlap between what my clutched drill and my impact wrench can do. The impact driver only gets used for medium to smaller fasteners. The real question is, if you are trying to do the biggest hardest mostest possible, why even get a 1/4" drive impact driver? This is kind of why 3/8" impact drivers and wrenches exist. Right now, with the current state of the 1/4" driver market, it's easy to generate enough torque to wreck 1/4" bits. It helps that they hammer, but it's going opposing directions trying to squeeze as much as possible out of 1/4" when larger exists.

The 4 speed is important, it’s not just about power as they both have enough power at max speed

I have two of 4 speed one and been using forever and not sure what this reliability talk with Ryobi I beat it up I throw it I drop it and never had any issues

Your hands are to small for the tool. Do they sell a little kids kit?

Just picked up one of these for 296 after taxes including one extra free XC5. Very happy.!

Only certain tools use the contact on the back. My brushed versions have it too. Its not related to hp

Got it for 250 very happy with this purchase

is the gen 3 m18 still worth buying

Did he just say chuck on an impact driver? and keyless???? wtf???

$100 where? It costs $200+ bare without anything in my country

You can buy better but do you need it. Ryobi is more than good enough for any homeowner. Now true professionals that work them every day thats a different story. But as a house painter/ homeowner, my ryobi tools have been great.

Only think i hate is m12 doesnt stand up on battery very well and the belt clip is a joke haha

I feel like the extra contacts are for higher amp devices like a hammer drill, that way it doesnt burn up contacts

Just got the single speed for 40 bucks 👍

Jesus loves you God bless

I have them both drill and impact Glad that i bought them!! Great tools

Dead body disposal

I have the full-size saw, but this little guy does great in confined spaces (think tight closets, interstitials, crawl spaces) and can be used one-handed. Sure--it's not as gutsy as a larger unit, but it's not designed for crazy big demo jobs, it's designed to get where nothing else can and get the needed results. I enjoy mine quite a bit, and if you work in tight spaces, then this is a great solution, especially if you are in the M12 battery platform. Thanks!

Not sure why but in Canada you actually get the 4 speed in the kit lol

I buy saws only in m18. m12 tools are great, but i want to have power when i do cuts.

Great video man. I'm on 12v and 20v Dewalt platform. The only thing stopping me from switching over from 12v to m12 is the fat grip, top heavy and many reviews claiming it gets really hot. This is for both the impact and hammer drill.

Good comparison between the two, but if you had to choose between the two for the homeowner, which would be the better option?

How will it go cutting tree roots thanks

Companies always put the safety in the wrong place- it’s annoying when you are working in a difficult position and the damn tool shuts off.

Excellent commercial! On a serious note, thank you, Man. Love the demo and Home Depot hack explanation 😎 You got a new sub

Junk glad i didnt buy it

I’m looking for an M12 lady. Small. Fierce. Plenty of juice. 🧃

I feel if you dont actually try the tools youll never like them, your mind is too bussy hating on them. Ryobi was never for indrustial or hard work, it mainlt for home use, have a garage full of ryobi tools never had an issue still going strong. Cheap and effective what else can I ask for pay double or triple for something that will do the same job.

An impact wrench would be the right tool for them fixings in my eyes.

Bought the M12 fuel set with the return battery for a total of $160 after, and the M18 set for $260 and don’t know which to keep. Only DIY and household applications. Thought I could future proof with M18 since I have no drills or batteries from anything but I might just keep the M12

When you factor in the price of the Milwaukee to the Ryobi I can buy two to the one so therefore it is twice the drill

The auto mode is great on the 262 model. I like the tool knowing when to stop forcing when not wanted.

Milwaukee says that your m18 tool has to a fuel to be able to take advantage of the high discharge rate of the high output batteries. Great video!

I think it’s about the compact size lower weight and definitely not a demo tool
