1) Submitted by Terri from TN on 1/30/2012 Customer Rating: I have had this little saw for a few weeks now and I love it. I have been using a band saw to cut out Christmas ornaments for years and did try a scroll saw once. I wasn't at all satisfied with it, so I ended up taking it back and went back to using the band saw. When I saw the infomercial on this one I wanted to see it before making any decisions and went to Lowes to see if they carried it. I thought it looked great, but who knows until you try it. I absolutely loved it from the start. I have a little wet dry vac I use with it and can use it on my kitchen cabinet. This is a great tool.

2) Submitted by William, from Minneapolis, MN on 4/20/2011 Customer Rating: Once I secured the Blade Runner down it cured the extra vibration and in turn the cuts were much cleaner and over all easier to use. I really like overall size and the ability to use on any product for a quick cut. I would suggest buying some other jig saw blades to use with the machine.

3) Submitted by Bill Laxson, from St. Cloud, MN on 1/28/2011 Customer Rating: I’ve always lived in the county with lots of maintenance needs, hobby projects and storage space. My pole barn was loaded with tools like 12” compound mater saw, commercial 10” table saw, jig saws, tile saws, hand held tools for all sorts. After moving into a small ½ acre lot I realized I had no room for this type tools but I still had the need to maintain the new property and continue with my woodworking hobby. I saw a demo of the Blade Runner and decided to try it and see if it was what the advertisers said it was. They said if I didn’t like it I could send it back, no questions asked. After all, I don’t need commercial performance in a tool anymore, I’m not building a sky scraper I need a tool that performs the way I use it and for the task I need performed. I received the Blade Runner in about three days from ordering on-line. To my surprise, it did everything expected. I can cut and shape many types of material cleanly and efficiently. Now I have a list of very good, clean shop tools, with accessories to sell. Thanks Rockler. You made my retirement life exciting again.

4) Submitted by Richard Culley Culley, from Florissant, MO on 10/28/2010 Customer Rating: I just got my BladeRunner yesterday and had to play with it right away. This is a great tool to add to your shop. You can put away the Jig Saw and you can leave the Scroll Saw under the bench. It was very easy to set up and the variable speed is very useful with different kinds of wood. It cuts through just about anything you can think of that you can lift up to the table. It comes with 5 blades, wood, aluminum, metal, ceramic and scrolling. You don't need to use any tools to remove or insert the blades.

5) Submitted by Edward, from Fostoria, MI on 1/27/2011 Customer Rating: Just got my Bladerunner yesterday going to send it back today. This saw doesn't even come close to cutting a straight line no matter what you are cutting. I was very disappointed with it.

6) Submitted by Vince Mazzarelli, from Sayreville, NJ on 2/14/2011 Customer Rating: I love all my woodworking tools yet this toll is a basic upside down jigsaw. Unable to cut straight lines. It's much better looking than it is as a quality useful piece of equipment. I am very disapointed. It's also only good for small pieces of wood cutting. It's much to hard or impossible to cut larger pieces of wood.

7) Submitted by Larry Stanfield, from Discovery Bay, CA on 3/13/2011 Customer Rating: Sounded real good on the infomercial. Received it in a matter of days and put it to work right away. I'm extremely disappointed in it's performance. Vibration is excessive, very difficult to cut larger pieces of wood. I would classify this machine as a small hobby device. Cutting flooring -no way. Straight line - no way. This is an upside down jig saw, but you'll do better using your existing jig saw.
