When it comes to power and performance, few jig saws can match the 6.2 amp Milwaukee top-handle, orbital jig saw. This versatile workhorse delivers clean, accurate cuts (straight line, beveled, curved, and internal cutouts) through metal, plastic, and wood. Blade speeds of 500 to 3,000 spm are controlled electronically and can be adjusted easily on the fly with the twist of a dial. Orbital action (four settings) and shoe angle (45 degrees in either direction) are also easy to adjust and maintain for just the right power and cut. An all-metal gear case and cast-aluminum shoe provide added stability and durability. A non-marring shoe cover protects the workpiece from damage, and a built-in sawdust blower keeps the work surface clean ahead of the cut, for added visibility. As with any tool of its kind, the jig saw does vibrate a little, especially at its higher settings. Fortunately, it's not as bad as one might expect, thanks to a vibration dampening mechanism that permits quieter, smoother operation. --Carl Thress
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Milwaukee 6266-22 Top Handle Orbital Jig Saw
Customer Review: Milwaukee does it again
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this saw for a song from a local home improvement center where it was on the closeout table. It had been the display model and had no case and was missing the clear dust cover over the blade. I ordered the case ($24) for it and dropped Milwaukee an email about the missing dust cover. Less than a week later, the missing dust cover arrived in the mail at no cost to me. Kudos to Milwaukee for remembering what customer service is all about. It was a toss-up between this unit and the Bosch but what finally sold me on the Milwaukee was the blade change. The Bosch has the clumsy "lift-and-turn" lever on the top of the saw. I see great potential for breakage with this plastic lever. I note that last month Bosch introduced a new saw (1590EVSK) with a blade changing device that looks very much like the Milwaukee's. I've used it on numerous projects already and have found this saw to be like all the other Milwaukee tools I've used; plenty of power and built to last. The only thing that took a little getting used to was the variable speed thumb wheel. It took a few sessions but I find myself being very comfortable with it now. To be fair, Milwaukee is probably re-thinking this and the new model will have a variable speed trigger but we'll have to wait and see. I've since ordered the rip fence as well as the vacuum attachment and hose. The rip fence is nice and sturdy and the vacuum attachment does a fairly good job of keeping the cutting area clear of dust. The shoe cover is a great attachment especially when working with laminates. The motor is smooth and virtually vibration-free and as I already noted has more power than the average user will ever need. This jigsaw will provide most, if not all, users a lifetime's worth of troublefree operation
