According to our jigsaw expert
The Bosch PST 18 LI 1 gives you the convenience of wireless jobs in combination with enough power to cut 80 millimeters deep into wood. On top of that comes the endurance of 2.5 Ah. So there are few sawing jobs where this cordless jigsaw is not the ideal tool. Whether you want to cut laminate to size, shorten the corresponding skirting or get started with scaffolding wood in the garden, this handy saw from Bosch will help you. Depending on the job, you set the most ideal cutting speed with the variable speed. Thanks to Low Vibration, the PST 18 LI 1 also does this with very little vibration.

The saw does its job as it should. The adjustable 'oscillating sawing movement' makes it possible to quickly saw through a plank with a somewhat coarser result, but it is also possible to work a bit more quietly with a neater result. I was not yet familiar with the supplied anti-splinter strip, but this is certainly an addition. It clicks in and out easily, and really ensures a neater result.
Normally I don't use a vacuum cleaner with a jigsaw, but I was curious if my vacuum cleaner would fit. The Kärcher vacuum cleaner I have fits perfectly.
I think angle cutting is a new system from Bosch, because it doesn't yet work as we might expect. The plateau must be adjusted with a screw, but no tools are included for this. The red sliding system in which the saws can be stored cannot remain in the saw platform when the saw is at the most inclined position. Small beauty flaws with which Bosch can still win some credits.
All in all, the saw is highly recommended for anyone considering buying it.

Does what it's supposed to do: saw. The only downside I can come up with (but this is really annoying ..) is that the dust is not blown away when you let it saw gently, for example in the beginning or if you want to see if you still saw straight. Then you blow away the sawdust yourself, so that the plastic protective cap fogs up again (and you can no longer see where you are sawing). You're not making it up.
1 saw blade is included, which is intended for coarse and fast sawing. You can find and store these in the plastic storage box that is mounted in the foot, which is super handy. When buying other saws, make sure you buy T-shank saws. New saws do not have to be expensive at all and can be found in bulk at your local DIY store. Or Coolblue, your choice.

Solidity builds confidence in long use with no warping/skewing as with my last 2 B-brand jigsaws. It's nice that registering the saw with Bosch provides a 3rd year warranty. Spacious suitcase also nice.
Do think that for this serious price at least a saw guide should have been included and a slightly more serious set of saws (than the 3 separate ones that are included) would have been a nicer entry.
Please note when ordering: the set with saw without battery + double battery set, turns out to be a combination with a 'baretool' in box, so without a case with the 2 battery set separately. If you want a case, order this set with 1 battery + 2nd sent after Bosch registration. Quite confusing on the website in my opinion because it is displayed as a choice on the same page. Read carefully in the 'included' list.
Note 2: for me the registration on the promotion website for the 2nd battery was ONLY via web browser EDGE, not via Opera, Chrome or firefox. Very strange, but the model drop-down list shows no values which prevented the registration process from completing. Bit sloppy on the part of Mr. Bosch (or his web designer), but glad I finally succeeded in Edge.
