Best cordless jigsaw UK

Updated: 21 October 2026

You want one name, and the star row will not give it to you. The best cordless jigsaw UK in this amazon.co.uk set is the body that fits batteries you already own, with a skip line for everyone else. UK round-ups often crown Makita and DeWalt models that are not in this folder, so those names are context, not a pick you can buy from these listings. Prices here run from £28.64 to £223.32. Peter F. read these listings on 19 October 2026. This is not a lab test. The full rows are on the [cordless jigsaw comparison](/hub/power-saws/cordless-jigsaw).

If you already own Bosch 18 V batteries

The three Bosch Professional bodies are solo. You are buying a saw and, on the 125 models, an L-BOXX. You are not buying a battery. The GST 18V-95 B is listed at £114.62, with 4.6 from 101 reviews and a listed weight of 1.66 kg. Amazon does not state a wood depth or a bevel for this ASIN. Bosch UK states 95 mm in wood. There is no case. The GST 18V-125 S is listed at £207.12, with 4.8 from 331 reviews, an SDS blade holder, a splinter guard and an L-BOXX. A UK review calls the grip a barrel and says the switch may not suit a left-handed user. Bosch's manual table states 125 mm in wood. The Amazon page does not. The bow-handle GST 18V-125 B is £223.32, with 4.7 from 204 reviews and no battery. Skip both if the shelf has no Bosch Professional packs. HSE's typical table lists jigsaws at 9 to 17 m/s². That is not a reason to call any saw here the safest.

If you own Ryobi or Einhell

The Ryobi R18JS-0 is listed at £68.11, body only, at 4.7 from 1,594 reviews. The bullets state up to 101 mm in wood, 6 mm in steel, a T-shank clamp and four pendulum steps. UK reviews praise the shared ONE+ batteries. The first blade change is fiddly, and there is no guide in the box. The body is a poor bargain if you still need a pack and a charger, and a strong one if ONE+ batteries are already charged. Skip it if your only batteries are Bosch or Einhell. The Einhell TC-JS 18/70 is listed at £66.68 with a 2.5 Ah Power X-Change battery and a charger, at 4.4 from 258 reviews. The bullets state 70 mm in wood and 8 mm in steel. UK comments call it fine for an average DIYer, with no repeated bent shoe or burnout in the saved UK sample. Skip it if you already own ONE+ or Bosch packs. The body-only or kit page does that sum without a star ranking.

If you own nothing

The Lucn at £28.64 shows 4.7 from seven reviews and no review text in the saved listing. The listing also says corded electric as well as battery. Skip it if you wanted evidence. The Fexrror at £46.74 is 3.9 from 41 reviews: one UK buyer cut 2 inch wood, another could not keep a 3 x 2 straight, and runtime is about half an hour. The ONEVAN at £59.89 is 4.0 from 14 reviews, with two 4.0 Ah packs claimed in the bullets and a 12 V row that disagrees. One saw stopped after one cut. The DEWINNER at £60.09 is 4.3 from 192. UK buyers cut wood, metal and plastic pipe. The same sample includes a shoe that bent within minutes and a battery that died halfway through a worktop. That is the skip line for a kitchen cut-out. Do not treat a 4.7 from seven reviews as the Ryobi's 4.7 from 1,594.

Two listings that are easy to misread

The WORX WX550.4 at £129.99 is 5.0 from 17 reviews. The title is a 2-in-1 jigsaw and reciprocating saw. The best-seller line sits under reciprocating saws. The highlight includes one 2.0 Ah PowerShare battery. Amazon states no wood depth and no bevel, and the motor row says brushed. A 5.0 on 17 reviews is a thin sample. Buy it when you also want a reciprocating mode. The CISSIYOG at £33.99 is not a DeWalt jigsaw. The brand is CISSIYOG. The bullets claim a DeWalt 18 V or 20 V fit, no battery, and 135 mm in wood. The star line is 2.9 from 16 reviews. UK buyers report a blade that would not load, a blade left of the centre mark, and a burnout. Skip it for a laminate worktop. The checks behind these skips stay on the cordless jigsaw buying guide.

Common questions

What is the best cordless jigsaw if I already own Bosch 18 V batteries?
The GST 18V-95 B at £114.62 if you want the lighter body and can live without a case, or the GST 18V-125 S at £207.12 for the SDS holder, the L-BOXX and the barrel grip. The bow-handle GST 18V-125 B at £223.32 is the same class of solo tool. All three omit the battery. Bosch UK's wood figures are maker pages, not Amazon depth rows.
What if I own Ryobi ONE+ or Einhell PXC?
Own ONE+, and the R18JS-0 at £68.11 is the body, with 101 mm wood in the bullets and no battery in the box. Own PXC, and the Einhell at £66.68 already includes a 2.5 Ah pack. Crossing slides means a second charger. The body price is only a bargain when the pack exists.
Is the cheapest kit the best for a first saw?
The Lucn at £28.64 has seven reviews and no text in the saved listing, plus a row that says corded and battery. That is not a first-saw pick you can check. If you might stay on one platform, the Einhell kit is the readable option. The DEWINNER at £60.09 has 192 reviews and a mixed record, which is more evidence than seven silent stars.
Why is a 5.0-star saw not automatically the pick?
The WORX WX550.4 is 5.0 from 17 reviews. Seventeen is a small count next to 1,594 on the Ryobi. The stored UK comments describe a pivoting head that is also a reciprocating saw, and the listing states no wood depth. A perfect average on a thin sample can move when the next reviews arrive.
Should I buy the CISSIYOG because it says DeWalt?
No. The listing brand is CISSIYOG. A DeWalt 18 V or 20 V fit is a seller bullet, and the battery is not included. UK reviews at 2.9 from 16 include a blade that would not seat and a saw that burnt out. If you want a DeWalt jigsaw, this ASIN is not that tool.
Is the WORX a jigsaw pick or a two-tool pick?
It is a two-tool pick. The title says jigsaw and reciprocating saw, you pivot the head, and the best-seller line sits under reciprocating saws. It is a jigsaw pick only if you also want that second mode and you accept 17 reviews, a brushed motor and no stated bevel.
Which pick should I skip for a laminate worktop?
Skip the CISSIYOG, because UK reviews describe a blade that will not seat and a blade off the centre mark. Skip the DEWINNER if a review already records the battery dying halfway through a worktop. Orbital must be at 0. The method is on the jigsaw kitchen worktop cutout page.
