Bosch cordless jigsaw comparison 2026

The best Bosch cordless jigsaws, compared.

Top pick: Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 S Best value: Bosch EasySaw 18V-70 – Lowest amazon.co.uk price of the nine, about £57.99, for a green body whose bullet states 70 mm in wood. Updated October 2026.

Peter F.Editor

A Bosch cordless jigsaw is an 18 V body that drives a narrow blade for curves, cut-outs, and short straight cuts in wood, plastic, and thin metal. If you already own a Bosch battery, or you are about to start one, the first split is green and versus blue. Bosch states that packs do not fit or Bosch 18 V tools, even though both sides say 18 V. Eight of these nine amazon.co.uk rows are bodies. Add a matching pack if you do not own one, and read the [Bosch cordless jigsaw buying guide](/hub/power-saws/bosch-cordless-jigsaw/sub/bosch-cordless-jigsaw-buying-guide) before you treat a body price as the whole cost. It is not a circular saw, and it is not a demolition reciprocating saw. The nine amazon.co.uk rows split into green and tools and blue tools. Bosch’s says the two systems are not compatible. The [green and split](/hub/power-saws/bosch-cordless-jigsaw/sub/bosch-cordless-jigsaw-green-vs-professional) is the check to make before you compare stars. None of the clean scopes include a charger. Bosch recommends 4.0 and above for full performance on the B and the pair.

The best Bosch cordless jigsaws in detail

Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 S

Rank 1

Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 S

∼£207

Our view

The GST 18V-125 S, order 06015B2000, is the dearest listing here at £207.12 and the only one with an L-BOXX. It is 4.8 out of 5 from 331 reviews. Only 3 of the first 50 blocks are from the United Kingdom, so that star line is not British opinion and it is not a lab ranking. The title says curved and section cuts, an SDS holder, one blade, a dust set, and an L-BOXX. The scope adds L-BOXX 136, an inlay for tool and charger, a T 144 D blade, and an anti-splinter guard. Item type says solo, so no battery. Bullets say brushless, four orbital stages, and speed selection. Bevel is 45 degrees. Blade length is 125 mm. A UK review praises the barrel grip, the dust blower, and hardwood cuts, and warns that the switch may not suit left-handed use. Dimensions of 44.2 x 36 x 14 cm match a case more than a bare saw. One Germany review says it failed three times in two years. Warranty text says 24 months. The 125 W line is a listing attribute.

Pros

  • Only L-BOXX in this set, with an inlay and a dust set
  • SDS holder in the title, 4-stage orbital, brushless
  • UK review names a barrel grip and a dust blower
  • Highest amazon.co.uk star line in the set, 4.8 from 331

Cons

  • Highest price, and still no battery or charger
  • Only 3 of the first 50 reviews are from the United Kingdom
  • Switch may not suit left-handed use
  • One review reports three failures in two years

Best for: You already own a Bosch Professional 18 V pack and you want the L-BOXX kit and the barrel grip described in the UK review.

Less suitable: You are choosing on the 4.8 line alone, you are left-handed and want a proven switch, or you have no Professional pack.

Common questions

Does the GST 18V-125 S include a battery?

The item type says solo; L. The scope names L-BOXX 136, an inlay for tool and charger, one T 144 D blade, a dust extraction set, and an anti-splinter guard. A battery is not named. Non-UK reviews say the battery and charger are not included.

Is the grip named on the listing?

The title does not say barrel or bow. A UK review calls it a barrel grip, easier than a Ryobi D-handle, and says the on-off switch and speed control may not suit left-handed use. The title does name an SDS saw blade holder.

Why is 4.8 not the top pick?

4.8 from 331 is the highest star line in this set. Only 3 of the first 50 review blocks are marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom, so the score is not a British sample and it is not a lab ranking. One non-UK review says the saw failed three times in two years.

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100 Amazon Edition

Rank 2

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100 Amazon Edition

∼£65

Our view

This Amazon Edition UniversalSaw, order 0603011101, is £65.27 on amazon.co.uk and 4.7 out of 5 from 645 reviews. In the first 50 review blocks, 46 are marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom, which is the strongest British sample in this set, so it is the top pick on that sample rather than on a lab test. The item type says no battery, a 15-piece blade set, and a carton. The included-components line says Battery, and UK reviews side with the item type. Keyless blade change is the special feature. Bevel, pendulum, dust extraction, and a wood-depth figure are not on this listing. The blade-length field is 100 mm. One UK review could not cut 0.8–1 mm sheet metal. Another says hardwood deeper than 2 cm is beyond it. A Professional pack did not fit for one buyer.

Pros

  • 4.7 from 645 reviews, with 46 of the first 50 from the United Kingdom
  • 15-piece blade set named in the item type
  • Keyless blade change
  • UK reviews describe laminate, a wooden worktop, and shared green 18 V packs

Cons

  • Battery line conflicts with the item type and with UK reviews
  • No bevel, pendulum, or wood depth on this listing
  • Cardboard box called clunky
  • One UK review failed on thin sheet metal, and one on thicker hardwood

Best for: You want the UniversalSaw Amazon Edition with the blade set, you already own a matching green 18 V pack, and you care that most of the sampled reviews are British.

Less suitable: You need a stated pendulum, a stated bevel, or a Bosch Professional battery to fit this body.

Common questions

Does this Amazon Edition include a battery?

The item type says without battery. The included-components line says Battery. UK reviews say the battery is not in the box, and one buyer who thought they had paid for a pack still found no charger.

What blades are in the box?

The item type names a 15-piece jigsaw blade set in carton packaging. UK reviews say that set covered early laminate and wood jobs, including a metal blade that one buyer used and another could not get through thin sheet.

Will any Bosch 18 V battery fit?

The listing says 18 Volt System. One UK review says a Bosch Professional drill battery did not fit and a matching pack and charger cost about £70. Other UK reviews say their Bosch drill batteries did fit.

Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 B

Rank 3

Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 B

∼£180

Our view

The GST 18V-125 B, order 06015B3001, is the blue solo body at £179.98. It is 4.7 out of 5 from 204 reviews, and 11 of the first 50 blocks are from the United Kingdom. Bullets say brushless, four orbital stages, speed selection, and curved or cross cuts. The scope is one T 144 D blade, a splinter guard, and a dust set. There is no L-BOXX. The blade-length field is 125 mm, which is not the same as a printed wood depth. UK reviews call it quiet and as strong as an old corded Bosch, and they praise the blower and dust extraction. One UK buyer could not use an existing Bosch charger. A France review says the blade clamp needs two hands and that the guard hides the line. Handle material is printed as the letter A. The 125 W line is a listing attribute. Warranty text says 24 months.

Pros

  • Brushless, 4-stage orbital, and a 45 degree listing angle
  • Dust extraction set in the scope, praised in a UK review
  • Solo price below the L-BOXX GST 18V-125 S on these listings
  • UK reviews compare the cut with a long-used corded Bosch

Cons

  • No battery, no charger, and no case
  • One UK Bosch charger did not fit
  • No wood depth on the listing, only a 125 mm blade-length field
  • Handle material is printed as the letter A, and only 11 of 50 reviews are British

Best for: You already own a matching Bosch Professional 18 V pack and charger, and you want the 125 body without paying for an L-BOXX.

Less suitable: You need a case in the box, or your only Bosch charger is from a different family.

Common questions

Does the GST 18V-125 B include an L-BOXX?

The item type says solo; C. The scope names one T 144 D blade, a splinter guard, and a dust extraction set. It does not name an L-BOXX, a battery, or a charger.

What do the bullets say it can do?

Bullets say 4-stage orbital action, speed selection, curved and cross cuts, and a brushless motor. The cutting-angle field is 45 degrees. The blade-length field is 125 mm. A wood-depth figure is not printed. The wattage line is 125 W.

Will an existing Bosch charger fit?

UK reviews include buyers who used batteries they already owned. One UK review says an existing Bosch charger did not fit, support could not supply one, and the saw could not be used. The handle-material field is printed as the letter A.

Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 in a carton

Rank 4

Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 in a carton

∼£103

Our view

The carton AdvancedSaw 0603013000 is £102.71 and 4.7 out of 5 from 57 reviews. Only 3 of 25 review blocks are from the United Kingdom, so that star line is not a British sample. The bullets call it brushless, state 140 mm in wood, and claim up to 85% of dust extracted at the blade, plus 20 m of cutting per charge with no amp-hour. The box is three T 144 D blades, a guard, a dust nozzle, CutControl, a protection shoe, and cardboard. No battery is named. Bevel is a 45 degree attribute. Pendulum and a keyless clamp are in non-UK reviews, not in the bullets. One Netherlands review returned a saw that did not work. One non-UK review wanted a parallel guide that was not included. The 1 AAAA battery line is a listing attribute only.

Pros

  • Brushless on the listing, with a 140 mm wood bullet
  • Dust nozzle and an 85% extraction bullet
  • CutControl, guard, and protection shoe in the carton
  • Non-UK reviews describe clean wood cuts and a tool-free blade change

Cons

  • No battery, and the battery line says 1 AAAA
  • Pendulum is not in the captured bullets
  • Only 3 of 25 reviews are from the United Kingdom
  • Cardboard box, and one saw was returned because it did not work

Best for: You want the brushless green saw whose bullet says 140 mm in wood, in a carton rather than a SystemBox, and you already own a green 18 V pack.

Less suitable: You want a mostly British review sample, a confirmed pendulum on the bullets, or a battery in the box.

Common questions

Does the carton AdvancedSaw include a battery?

The scope names three T 144 D blades, an anti-splinter guard, a dust nozzle, CutControl, a protection shoe, and a cardboard box. It does not name a battery. UK reviews say the battery is not included. The battery-count line says 1 AAAA, which the rest of the file does not support.

What depth and dust claim are on the listing?

A bullet says 140 mm in wood. Another says up to 85% of dust is extracted at the blade, and the scope includes a dust extraction nozzle. A separate bullet says 20 m of cutting per battery charge and does not name an amp-hour.

Is a 4-step pendulum on this listing?

The captured bullets do not say 4-stage. Non-UK reviews describe four feed steps and tool-free blade changes. The special-feature line says Brushless, and the cutting-angle field says 45 degrees.

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100

Rank 5

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100

∼£73

Our view

UniversalSaw order 0603011100 is £72.99 and 4.6 out of 5 from 480 reviews. Only 8 of the first 50 review blocks are marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom. The bullets are the ones that state a 100 mm wood depth, a 4-step pendulum, and a speed trigger, which the cheaper Amazon Edition listing does not. The scope adds two T 144 D blades, CutControl, a guard, a protection shoe, a transparent cover, and a cardboard box. No battery is named. A UK buyer cut a worktop with it. The same British sample includes a blade guide that sat slightly out, and a drill battery that did not fit. Treat the 18 W row, the power source Hand Power, and the 2.4 m dimensions as listing attributes that the rest of the file does not support. The item type says Professional Products while the colour is green.

Pros

  • Bullets state 100 mm in wood and a 4-step pendulum
  • CutControl, shoe, and transparent cover in the scope
  • Keyless blade change and a 45 degree listing angle
  • A UK review cut a kitchen worktop

Cons

  • No battery in the scope, and one UK drill battery did not fit
  • Part number does not match the model number
  • 18 W, Hand Power, and 2.4 m dimensions are uncorroborated listing lines
  • Only 8 of the first 50 reviews are from the United Kingdom

Best for: You want the UniversalSaw body whose bullets state 100 mm and four pendulum steps, and you already own a matching green pack.

Less suitable: You need a checked case size, a Professional battery, or you are choosing from the 18 W and 2.4 m listing lines.

Common questions

What is in the UniversalSaw 0603011100 box?

The scope names two T 144 D blades, CutControl, an anti-splinter guard, a protection shoe, a transparent cover, and a cardboard box. A battery and a charger are not named.

Does the listing state a pendulum and a wood depth?

Yes. Bullets say a 100 mm cutting depth and a 4-step pendulum, plus a speed trigger with a soft start. The surface field says wood. Bullets also name worktops, parquet, and aluminium profiles.

Will every Bosch 18 V battery fit?

One UK review bought it expecting any 18 V Bosch drill battery and found it did not fit. Other reviews say packs from the same green range did fit. The model number is 0603011100 and the part number is 06039D7000.

Bosch EasySaw 18V-70

Rank 6

Bosch EasySaw 18V-70

∼£58

Our view

The EasySaw 18V-70 is the lowest amazon.co.uk price in this set, at £57.99, so it carries the best-value badge on price alone. That is not a lab score. The listing is 4.6 out of 5 from 306 reviews, and only 11 of the first 50 review blocks are marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom. The scope is one T 144 D blade and a carton. A battery and a charger are not named, and UK reviews say there is no storage case and no compatible case to buy later. A bullet limits wood to 70 mm and describes a speed trigger with a soft start. The special-feature line says keyless blade change. Bevel is a 45 degree listing attribute, and pendulum is not stated. One UK review finds the safety button awkward. The 90 W row, the 11.8 cm dimensions, and the tooth count of 5 are listing attributes only.

Pros

  • Lowest kept amazon.co.uk price at £57.99
  • Bullet states 70 mm in wood and a speed trigger
  • Keyless blade change on the special-feature line
  • UK reviews mention shared Bosch batteries, including All4One

Cons

  • No battery, charger, or case in the scope
  • Pendulum is not stated
  • Only 11 of the first 50 reviews are from the United Kingdom
  • One UK review calls the safety button awkward

Best for: You already own a matching green Bosch 18 V pack and you want the cheapest body here for thinner wood, around the 70 mm bullet.

Less suitable: You need a case, a pendulum, or a published wood depth above 70 mm, or you have no Bosch pack yet.

Common questions

Does the EasySaw 18V-70 come with a battery?

The scope line names one T 144 D blade and a carton. It does not name a battery or a charger. The listing says one lithium-ion battery is required.

How deep can it cut in wood?

A bullet says it is for cutting wood up to 70 mm, with laminate flooring as the example. The surface-recommendation field says wood, while the bullets also name plastic and metal.

Does it include a case?

The scope is a carton, not a case. UK reviews say it ships without a storage case and that no compatible case is sold for it.

Bosch Professional GST 18V-95 B

Rank 7

Bosch Professional GST 18V-95 B

∼£115

Our view

The GST 18V-95 B is the compact blue body at £114.62, model 06015B7001, 4.6 out of 5 from 101 reviews. Twenty-one of 45 review blocks are from the United Kingdom, so this is one of the better British samples in the blue group, still not a lab test. Bullets say brushless, four orbital stages, a selection wheel, and a variable trigger, in a compact body for wood and metal. The scope is one T 111 C blade, a suction nozzle, a covering hood, and a small anti-splinter guard. No battery, no case, and no wood depth are printed. UK reviews praise straight cuts in 12 mm ply and a blade lock with no Allen key, and they say Professional and AMPShare packs fit. One Ireland review says it stopped after six months. One Spain review expected blue and received green. The 90 W line has no other support in the file.

Pros

  • Brushless, 4-stage orbital, and a speed wheel on the bullets
  • 21 of 45 reviews are from the United Kingdom
  • UK reviews describe straight ply cuts and a keyless blade lock
  • Suction nozzle and hood are in the scope

Cons

  • No battery, no case, and no wood depth on the listing
  • Anti-splinter guard is tiny and easy to lose
  • One saw stopped after six months
  • 90 W is only a listing attribute

Best for: You already own a Bosch Professional or AMPShare 18 V pack and you want the smaller blue body with four orbital stages.

Less suitable: You need a stated wood depth on the Amazon row, a case, or a green POWER FOR ALL pack to run it.

Common questions

Does the GST 18V-95 B come with a battery?

The scope names a T 111 C wood blade, a suction nozzle, a covering hood, and an anti-splinter guard. It does not name a battery, a charger, or a case. UK reviews say it uses a Bosch pack you already have.

What cutting controls are on the listing?

Bullets state 4-stage orbital settings, a selection wheel, and a variable speed trigger, plus a brushless motor. No wood depth and no bevel angle are printed on this row. The wattage line is 90 W.

Which batteries do reviewers say fit?

UK reviews say Bosch rechargeable packs, and one names Bosch Professional and AMPShare. A parallel guide is not in the scope. One UK review calls the anti-splinter guard a very small piece of clear plastic.

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100 with PBA title

Rank 8

Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100 with PBA title

∼£95

Our view

This row is £94.63 and the title joins a UniversalSaw 18V-100 to a Home and Garden PBA 18V pack. A bullet adds a 15-piece blade set, a 4-stage pendulum, 100 mm in wood, and 2.5 Ah with Electronic Cell Protection. The included-components line says Battery. There is no model number, no weight, and no charger line. The star line is 4.6 from 7 reviews, and the file has three UK texts. Two like the cordless cut and the angle gadgets. The third says the charger and the battery still had to be bought separately, so the pack in the title is not confirmed by every review. The special-feature line says Brushless, which the other UniversalSaw rows in this set do not. Do not treat seven reviews as the same evidence as 645.

Pros

  • Only title in this set that names a PBA 18V pack and 2.5 Ah
  • Bullets state 100 mm in wood and a 4-stage pendulum
  • 15-piece blade set named in a bullet
  • All three captured reviews are from the United Kingdom

Cons

  • One UK review still bought a battery and a charger
  • No model number and no weight
  • Only seven reviews
  • Brushless is a listing attribute the sibling UniversalSaw rows do not share

Best for: You want the UniversalSaw title that claims a 2.5 Ah PBA pack, and you will check the box contents before you rely on that claim.

Less suitable: You need a confirmed model number, a large review sample, or a body you already know is sold without a pack.

Common questions

Does this listing include the PBA 18V battery?

The title names a Battery Pack PBA 18V, the included-components line says Battery, and a bullet says 2.5 Ah. One of the three UK reviews says the buyer still had to buy a charger and a battery separately. Both statements are on the raw file.

What cutting depth does the listing state?

A bullet says a 4-stage pendulum and a cutting depth of up to 100 mm in wood. The cutting-angle field is 45 degrees. No model number is printed.

How many reviews support the 4.6 score?

The listing says 4.6 out of 5 from 7 reviews. The raw file contains three UK reviews. That is too small to treat as a settled verdict.

Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 SystemBox

Rank 9

Bosch AdvancedSaw 18V-140 SystemBox

∼£132

Our view

This Amazon Edition AdvancedSaw, 0603013004, is £131.99 and the only green row sold in a SystemBox. The title states a pendulum, a brushless motor, depths of 140 mm wood, 10 mm steel and 20 mm aluminium, three blades, and no battery or charger. The included line matches that, plus Cut Control, a splinter guard, a dust nozzle, a protection shoe, and SystemBox S. It is 4.3 out of 5 from 49 reviews, the lowest star line here, with 7 of 24 blocks from the United Kingdom. Those UK reviews like the saw and dislike the box: cardboard instead of foam, and Cut Control that does not fit the shoe in the set. A 75 mm post cut was ragged with the pendulum on. The special-feature field is the German word Bürstenlos. The 1 AAAA battery line is not corroborated.

Pros

  • Title prints 140 mm wood, 10 mm steel, and 20 mm aluminium
  • SystemBox S plus dust nozzle, guard, and three blades
  • Brushless and a pendulum are in the title
  • UK reviews still call the saw comfortable, with a progressive trigger

Cons

  • Lowest star line in the set, 4.3 from 49
  • Cut Control does not fit the supplied shoe, in UK reviews
  • SystemBox insert is cardboard, with no battery space
  • No battery or charger, and the battery line says 1 AAAA

Best for: You want the AdvancedSaw depths in a SystemBox and you already own a green 18 V pack, knowing the Cut Control clash is in the reviews.

Less suitable: You want the pieces in the box to fit each other, or a foam insert that holds a battery.

Common questions

What does the SystemBox edition leave out?

The title says without battery and charger. The included-components line lists the saw, three 144D blades, Cut Control, a splinter guard, a dust extraction nozzle, a protection shoe, and a SystemBox S.

Do the pieces in the box fit each other?

A UK review says Cut Control does not fit the base plate and glide shoe supplied in the same set. An Italy review says the same. UK and non-UK reviews also say the SystemBox insert is folded cardboard, with no place for a battery.

What depths are printed?

The title states 140 mm in wood, 10 mm in steel, and 20 mm in aluminium, plus a pendulum function and a brushless motor. The special-feature field is printed as Bürstenlos. The battery-count line says 1 AAAA, which the rest of the file does not support.

Nine amazon.co.uk listings were kept. The score on each card is the star line only, mapped from the listing (4.8 to 96, 4.7 to 94, 4.6 to 92, 4.3 to 86). There is no laboratory cut. The top pick is the row with the strongest sample of reviews marked Reviewed in the United Kingdom. Best value is the lowest shelf price in the nine, and it is not the same product. The weights below are the buying checks applied to the scope and the Bosch figures. They sum to 100 and they do not override those two badge rules.

1

Battery family

30%

Green EasySaw, UniversalSaw, and AdvancedSaw bodies take 18V POWER FOR ALL packs. Blue GST bodies take Bosch Professional packs and AMPShare. Bosch says the two systems do not fit each other.

2

Scope and box

25%

The scope line decides whether a battery, a charger, blades, a dust set, or a case are actually in the box. A body price is not the cost of cutting if you still need a pack.

3

Published wood depth

25%

Wood depth is the Bosch figure for that order number. An Amazon blade-length field, a wattage row, or an rpm line is not that depth. The Amazon edition 0603011101 does not print a wood depth.

4

Pendulum, bevel and grip

20%

Pendulum steps, a 45 degree shoe, and bow, barrel, or top handle decide curves, tear-out, and which hand you cut with. A high pendulum is a poor setting for laminate.

Bosch cordless jigsaw buying guide

Choose the battery family before you compare stars. Green Home and Garden bodies use 18V POWER FOR ALL. Blue Professional bodies use GBA, ProCORE, and AMPShare, and Bosch says those packs do not interchange. Then read the scope line. Eight of these nine amazon.co.uk rows are bodies, so a low sticker is not the cost of cutting until you add a pack and a charger you do not own. Wood depth is the Bosch figure for the order number, not an Amazon wattage row or a blade-length field.

What is a Bosch cordless jigsaw?

A Bosch cordless jigsaw in this comparison is an 18 V body that drives a narrow T-shank blade. You use it for curves, cut-outs, and short straight cuts in wood, plastic, and thin metal. It is not a circular saw, and it is not a demolition reciprocating saw. The nine amazon.co.uk rows split into green Home and Garden tools and blue Professional tools. Green EasySaw, UniversalSaw, and AdvancedSaw bodies take 18V POWER FOR ALL packs.

Best for

  • You already own a green POWER FOR ALL pack or a blue Professional pack
  • Curves, cut-outs, and short straight cuts in wood, plastic, or thin metal

Not ideal for

  • Quartz or other stone worktops, structural timber, or steel
  • A first Bosch tool if you have not priced a battery and a charger

Mistakes to avoid

  1. 1

    Fitting a green pack to a blue saw

    POWER FOR ALL and Bosch Professional or AMPShare are both marked 18 V, and they do not interchange. A UK review of the standard UniversalSaw found a drill battery that did not fit. A UK review of the GST 18V-125 B found a Bosch charger that did not fit. Match the family before you compare the saw.

  2. 2

    Reading Amazon rpm or watts as the Bosch spec

    Several rows print rpm, 18 W, 90 W, 125 W, a 2.4 m dimension, or 1 AAAA batteries required. Those lines are not the Bosch cutting depth or stroke rate. The Amazon edition 0603011101 does not print the 100 mm wood figure published for order 0603011100. On the GST rows, a 125 mm blade-length field is not the wood depth.

  3. 3

    A high pendulum on laminate

    Bosch’s sawing note sets pendulum 0 against tear-out. A high pendulum on laminate or a worktop edge leaves a ragged face. Call a professional for quartz or other stone worktops, for structural timber or steel, when you cannot clamp the work, and when employees will run the saw long enough that vibration and noise duties apply.

What to weigh up

Battery family and box contents

High

The first check is which 18 V interface you already own. Green EasySaw, UniversalSaw, and AdvancedSaw bodies are 18V POWER FOR ALL. Blue GST models take Bosch Professional packs (GBA 18V and ProCORE18V) and AMPShare. Bosch’s AMPShare FAQ says the two systems are not compatible. A UK review of UniversalSaw B09BJXZF46 says an existing Bosch drill battery did not fit. A UK review of the GST 18V-125 B says an existing Bosch charger did not fit.

Wood depth, pendulum and grip

High

Use the Bosch wood figure for that order number, then see whether Amazon repeats it. EasySaw 18V-70 is 70 mm wood and 6 mm steel. UniversalSaw order 0603011100 is 100 mm wood and 8 mm steel, with four pendulum steps and 0–2,600 strokes per minute. The Amazon edition 0603011101 does not print that wood depth, so do not copy it across. AdvancedSaw 18V-140 is 140 mm wood, 10 mm steel, and 20 mm aluminium, at 0–3,000 strokes per minute.

Which option suits you?

Three typical situations, each with a recommendation from this comparison.

Green pack, thinner wood

You already own a matching green 18V POWER FOR ALL pack and you want the lowest body price for cuts around the 70 mm wood bullet. The EasySaw 18V-70 is about £57.99, with one T 144 D blade and a carton. A battery, a charger, a case, and a pendulum are not in the scope.

The strongest British sample

You want the UniversalSaw Amazon Edition and you care that most of the sampled reviews are British. It is about £65.27, 4.7 from 645 reviews, with 46 of the first 50 blocks from the United Kingdom. The item type names a 15-piece blade set and no battery. Bevel, pendulum, and a wood depth are not on this listing.

A Professional or AMPShare pack

You already own a GBA, ProCORE, or AMPShare 18 V pack. The compact GST 18V-95 B is about £114.62, brushless, with four orbital stages and no battery in the scope. Bosch publishes 95 mm in wood for this order. A green POWER FOR ALL pack will not run it.

Common questions about Bosch cordless jigsaws

Which Bosch cordless jigsaw is the top pick for 2026?
The top pick is the Bosch UniversalSaw 18V-100 Amazon Edition, order 0603011101, at about £65.27. It is 4.7 out of 5 from 645 amazon.co.uk reviews, and 46 of the first 50 review blocks are from the United Kingdom. That British sample is the criterion, not a laboratory ranking. The item type says no battery and a 15-piece blade set. Bevel, pendulum, and a wood depth are not printed on this listing.
How much does a Bosch cordless jigsaw cost on amazon.co.uk?
On these amazon.co.uk listings the prices run from £57.99 for the EasySaw 18V-70 body to £207.12 for the GST 18V-125 S with an L-BOXX and no battery. The UniversalSaw Amazon Edition is £65.27 and the standard UniversalSaw is £72.99. Eight rows are bodies. Add a matching pack and charger if you do not own them. Bosch’s own UK pages on 20 October 2026 show different prices.
Will any Bosch 18 V battery fit a Bosch cordless jigsaw?
No. Green EasySaw, UniversalSaw, and AdvancedSaw bodies take 18V POWER FOR ALL packs. Blue GST bodies take Bosch Professional packs, including GBA 18V and ProCORE18V, and AMPShare. Bosch’s AMPShare FAQ says those systems do not fit each other, even though both are marked 18 V. A UK review of the standard UniversalSaw says a Bosch drill battery did not fit. A UK review of the GST 18V-125 B says an existing Bosch charger did not fit.
Do these Bosch cordless jigsaws include a battery?
Eight of the nine listings are bodies, and the clean scope lines do not name a charger. The EasySaw names one blade and a carton. The Amazon Edition item type says without battery, while another line says Battery, and UK reviews side with the item type. Only ASIN B09PZMFP8C puts a PBA 18V pack and 2.5 Ah in the title. One of three UK reviews says the buyer still bought a battery and a charger.
What wood depth should you trust?
Use the Bosch figure for the order number, then see whether Amazon repeats it. EasySaw is 70 mm in wood. UniversalSaw 0603011100 is 100 mm. AdvancedSaw is 140 mm. GST 18V-95 B is 95 mm. GST 18V-125 B and S are 125 mm. The Amazon edition 0603011101 does not print a wood depth, so do not borrow 100 mm from the other UniversalSaw. On the GST rows, a 125 mm blade-length field is not the cutting depth.
When is a corded Bosch jigsaw the better buy?
Buy a corded Bosch jigsaw if you have no Bosch 18 V pack yet and you do not want to add a battery and a charger to a body price. The £57.99 EasySaw is not the whole cost in that case. A corded saw also suits a bench with a 230 V socket and a BS 1363 plug. Stay cordless when you already own the matching family. The Bosch jigsaw comparison covers the corded Bosch listings.
What vibration and noise figures apply?
Bosch’s UK pages state ah 4.1 m/s² for the GST 18V-125 B on wood and ah 7 m/s² for the GST 18V-125 S on wood and sheet metal. Those figures are not a daily A(8). For employers the action value is 2.5 m/s² A(8) and the limit is 5.0 m/s² A(8). HSE’s typical table lists jigsaws at 9–17 m/s². A household cut-out is not an employer assessment.

Our verdict

The top pick is the UniversalSaw 18V-100 Amazon Edition (0603011101) at about £65.27. It is 4.7 out of 5 from 645 reviews, and 46 of the first 50 review blocks are from the United Kingdom, the strongest British sample in this set. Bevel, pendulum, and a wood depth are not on that listing, and UK reviews say the battery is not in the box. The best value is the EasySaw 18V-70 at about £57.99, the lowest price of the nine, with a 70 mm wood bullet and no battery or case. Neither result is a laboratory test. If you do not own a matching 18 V pack, add that cost before you treat either price as the cost of cutting.
