Score: 74/100Rankings
The WORX WX516L.9 is a versatile 2-in-1 cordless power tool that combines reciprocating saw and jigsaw functionality with a pivoting head design. It features a vibration-absorbing soft grip and tool-free blade changes, making it user-friendly for DIY enthusiasts. The main drawback is that it is sold as a tool-only unit, requiring users to already own compatible batteries. It is ideal for users with existing WORX Power Share batteries seeking portability.
The Porter-Cable PCC670B is a compact, lightweight cordless reciprocating saw ideal for demolition and rough-cutting in tight spaces. Its main trade-off is limited power and noticeable vibration compared to heavier, corded models. It is best suited for homeowners and DIYers who already own Porter-Cable 20V MAX batteries.
