I receintly purchased the B&D Firestorm 14.4v Reciprocating saw. Its the best saw i ever used. Its lite and well balanced. Comfortable grip. Used it 3 times and cuts like a knife in butter. Very Well recommeded. I now have the complete kit,drill-saw-and now the reciprocating saw. What else do i need for around the house. Thanks

3.0 out of 5 stars Battery runs down quickly, July 3, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Black & Decker CRS144 Cordless Reciprocating Saw (Tools & Home Improvement)

This saw is lightweight and easy to operate, but it only works well for a limited amount of time (10-15 min) because the battery runs down quickly. The recharge time is then several hours. If you have to do many repetitive cuts in the same day, and time is of the essence, I would select a different saw.

3.0 out of 5 stars If Not For the Battery..., December 7, 2001

Really not a bad little saw. Keep in mind, it is not corded and it is not for the contractor. After you get past that, the quick blade change is above average and the saw is unusually light weight for recirpocating saws (compare to a Porter Cable corded). It does eat the 14.4V batteries for lunch, I found it lasts for about 10-15 minutes of heavy duty work. With the six hour recharge, you need several batteries on hand. Still, it is reasonably priced and complements my Firestorm 14.4 collection well. Overall I have been satisfied.
