Score: 88/100
Bosch GSA18V-24N
Score: 88/100Rankings
The Milwaukee 2719-20 M18 FUEL Hackzall is a compact, one-handed cordless reciprocating saw featuring a high-speed brushless motor and advanced vibration control. It excels in tight spaces and overhead work but lacks the power for heavy structural demolition. Ideal for DIYers and tradespeople needing a portable cutter for plumbing, pruning, and light demolition.
The Bosch GSA18V-24N is a lightweight, compact reciprocating saw engineered for precision cutting in tight spaces without sacrificing power. Its main trade-off is a shorter stroke length which limits deep-cut capacity compared to larger models. It is best suited for HVAC workers, plumbers, and electricians who need access to confined areas.
