I was asked if the HF reciprocating saw, was a good value?
now if you only use it occasionally , yeah, its functional,
but its one of the few tools I bought from HF that I was not impressed with!
I have used both a HF and milwaulkee Reciprocating Saw (yes just my opinion)
and yes I own both , theres no way you can compare quality or the usefulness of both,
yes theres a huge difference in cost, and for the price difference you could buy 3-4 HF saws
but once youve tried both ,
I think the price of the milwaulkee is well warranted, if you use the Reciprocating Saw frequently,
example, I crawl up on the shop to cut a hole for a roof vent and at my age the last thing I want,
is to have to go back to get the more expensive saw because the HF just won,t handle the stress, induced...

now I buy a few tools from HF and they have lots of tools I find useful, like the 12 ton jack stands,
a 3 ton high lift floor jack, several of the wrench sets, but perhaps I got the only lemon Reciprocating Saw they ever sold in a decade,
but the one I purchased is easy to stall and has no where near,
the required torque I expect in a decent tool.
