Best depends on the batteries you have

Amazon’s reciprocating-saw best sellers mix bare branded tools with third-party bodies, so one best price is the wrong shape. If you already have Power X-Change, the bare Einhell is the evidenced saw: 4.5 from 7,661 reviews, a 22 mm stroke in the title, £49.99. If you have DeWalt 18 V XR, you are choosing the DCS369N-XJ at £119.99 or the DCS367N-XJ at £141.98, both bare. If you have neither, a kit whose included-components line names the pack is the shortlist, and the £28.99 body is not on it. The checks are on the buying guide. The bare price against a ready box is on the bare tool or kit page.

If you need a kit

The best value here is the GALAX PRO at £47.30. The components line names one 20 V 2.0 Ah battery, a charger and five blades. It is 4.3 from 535 reviews. Buyers took pallets apart for occasional DIY. The same reviews call the metal blades useless, and more than one wanted a stronger pack. There is no stroke, and brushless is not stated. DEKOPRO at £49.94 is the kit to open when a printed stroke matters more than the sample: 20–22 mm and 0–3200 SPM in the bullets, 4.3 from 47 reviews. The highlight says two blades and the components line says one. XIAZIR at £79.99 has 1,752 reviews at 4.4, and its components line lists only the two batteries.

If you already own 18 V packs

The TE-AP 18/22 is the top pick for Einhell owners. The title states 22 mm. The highlight says up to 2,600 strokes per minute, and the speed field says 4500 RPM. DeWalt owners get two bare XR bodies, and neither Amazon page states stroke or strokes per minute. The DCS369 at £119.99 is listed at 1.4 kg, 4.4 from 300 reviews, with a pivoting shoe. The DCS367 at £141.98 is 4.8 from 579, with a four-position clamp. Lawson HIS prints 28.6 mm for that model on the retailer’s sheet, not this Amazon card.

What not to call a winner

The cupeohome body at £28.99 is 3.6 from 56 reviews. More than one account says the motor smoked on small wood. The DeWalt code list is the seller’s claim. One review ran an XR pack and still called the saw less sturdy than a DeWalt. The Bosch Keo at £69.98 is a garden saw, 4.4 from 398, and it belongs on a branch shortlist. A 4.6 from seven Rivlox ratings does not win a shortlist. Garden limits for the Keo are on the reciprocating saw for pruning page.

Common questions

Which one should you buy if you own no batteries?
Choose a kit whose included-components line names the pack and the charger. The best value on that rule is the GALAX PRO at £47.30, with one 2.0 Ah battery, a charger and five blades, and 535 reviews. DEKOPRO at £49.94 states a 20–22 mm stroke and has 47 reviews. Leave the £28.99 cupeohome body, which has no battery and burn-out reviews.
Which bare tool if you already own Einhell packs?
The TE-AP 18/22 Li Solo at £49.99. It is 4.5 from 7,661 reviews, the title states 22 mm, and the box is one wood blade with no battery. The highlight’s 2,600 strokes per minute and the 4500 RPM field disagree. Keep the shoe on the work. The saw can bind in damp or thin wood.
DCS369 or DCS367 if you own DeWalt XR?
Both are bare 18 V XR brushless tools, and neither Amazon page states stroke or speed. The DCS369 at £119.99 is the lighter sub-compact, 1.4 kg on the listing, 4.4 from 300, with a pivoting shoe. The DCS367 at £141.98 is 4.8 from 579, with a four-position clamp, and reviewers report more vibration than on other saws. The £22 gap is real. So is the missing stroke on both pages.
Is the highest star rating the best saw?
A 4.8 from 579 on the DCS367 is the strongest star line, on a bare tool with no stroke on the Amazon page. The top pick here is the Einhell, because 7,661 reviews at 4.5 and a stated 22 mm stroke carry more weight when you already own Power X-Change. A 4.6 from seven Rivlox ratings does not enter that argument.
Is rank 1 on the DEKOPRO page the UK number one?
It is the best-seller rank on that listing, 1 in Reciprocating Saws beside 4,232 in DIY & Tools, at the time of the capture. Ranks move, and a rank is not a lab result. DEKOPRO’s shortlist case is the stated stroke and the battery in the box, against 47 reviews.
Should you skip the £28.99 body?
Skip it as a best pick. The cupeohome saw is 3.6 from 56 reviews, with more than one account of the motor smoking on small wood, and the battery is not included. The DeWalt line is a seller’s list of pack codes. A low price helps only if the saw still runs after the first offcuts.
Does the Bosch Keo belong on a best demolition saw list?
It belongs on a branch list. The Amazon bullets describe a garden saw, an A-Grip and branches up to 80 mm, at £69.98 with no battery. Bosch’s UK page states 60 mm once the A-Grip is fitted. Reviewers used it on hedges and also reported kickback. Studs and pipe are a sabre-saw job.
