Mac Allister 850W 220-240V Corded Reciprocating Saw MSRS850

Product Information

For general use on posts, general wood cutting where an electric saw is often quicker and easier to use I am considering a reciprocating saw rather than a Scorpion type saw. Being a Sunday I had to think of the quietest way of taking the shed down as to not disturb my new neighbours and unscrewing the shed already being out of the question due to rounded off screw heads, being unsafe etc.

Hi, can anyone recommend a good quality reciprocating saw that can cut a variety of materials wood, plastics etc? We will now go into more detail to help you understand what to look out for with these key criteria. Football Shoes in Acceptable grade - have never been worn, but may have more cosmetic marks and/or deeper scratches on the outside. The AS170 offers extreme levels of precision, accuracy and control allowing the tool to be used for a wide range of applications from heritage masonry work to electrical installations.I’m embarrassed to say that I don’t actually own a reciprocating saw for my gardening and landscaping business since I’ve never actually needed one, but when the time came that one was needed for my home I decided to opt for the Mac Allister MSRS850 850W electric reciprocating saw 220-240v. never used a Scorpion type saw so cannot comment on that, but own and have used reciprocating saw many times. Looking at the DeWatt saw that you showed, it looks great, but I think I have got used to the 'long thin' dimensions, rather than the gun shape.

It makes things even more difficult when you realise that there are hundreds of different options all to do the same job.

Since I was going to be using my new Mac Allister reciprocating saw to be cutting up an entire shed which meant going through felt, hidden nails and anything else that stood in my way, I opted for the Bosch S1531L reciprocating saw blades meant for cutting wood and came in lengths of 240mm.

It doesnt have the four way blade mount of the DeWalt but it looks like the blade can be mounted upside down.

Model DJR186 is a cordless reciprocating saw powered by 18V Li-ion battery and has been developed for higher cutting efficiency and more durability. The up side is that it is not too heavy, I like its long body length and it relative low vibration in my arms.Well I used the Mac Allister reciprocating saw for around 3 hours with no breaks so it’s fair to say that I put it through its paces, although with a 2 year trade rated guarantee from Screwfix I wouldn’t have expected any less. and still comes with a 2 year guarantee (at least at the time of writing this review) as well as being trade rated. If you don’t mind having a mains fed electric reciprocating saw then save some money and go for the Mac Allister!

I have a really cheap one because it only gets used around an hour a yearIn my experience, the quality of the bearings is important - too much wobble and the saws risk buckling. But being a Sunday I was by myself and having a quick look around there were no obvious fixing points for the roof which is what I would usually remove first (start high and work yourself down).
