After looking at all the other saws I got this one based on the performance of the other Hitachi tools I own that have taken a lot of abuse and still run. I am useing this saw to remodel my house built in the 1940s it has plaster over lath board and very solid old wood studs with lots of huge nails. This saw is doing the job with no problem but I do recomend buying the dewalt blade set as the blade that comes for free with the saw wont last long. This saw DOES have a 5 yr warranty. You proably will not need it as none of my other Hitachi tools I own have ever failed.
I bought this when Amazon had it listed for a price I couldn't refuse. I'm used to Milwaukee's Sawzall lineup but didn't need that much tool for light home use. I decided to give this one a try...I'm very glad I did. I was surprised at how quiet and balanced the tool felt. I read about the bearings/brushes sounding loud and poor speed control from the variable speed trigger but did not notice those shortcomings on the one I got. I even checked out the warranty card carefully and it DOES come with a 5 year warranty. I'm not sure how easy warranty service would be if needed but still it is covered by Hitachi service for 5 years. If I was a contractor I would stick with Milwaukee but for me this is perfect. I do however recommend the Milwaukee bi-metal blades, their performance is hard to beat.
I love tools. I have more than I will ever live to wear out! I saw this little gem on clearance at a big box store ($65 but don't bother looking those are long gone, Amazon has the best price now) and just had to have it. I have a Porter Cable Tiger saw and a Craftsman industrial reciprocating saw. The Porter Cable is wonderful with a great speed control, as is the Craftsman but they are very large and heavy for overhead work. This tool is a lightweight by comparison. I am removing the exterior plaster over plasterboard walls in an old house to facilitate installing insulation and updated wiring. This requires cutting through the steel mesh corner reinforcing along with 1 inch of rock hard plaster and plaster board. To remove a 20 foot wall requires 36 foot of this brutal cutting, the ceiling joint and vertical corners. This is the best tool I own for the overhead task. The speed control isn't as nice as the P.C. but it gets the job done and has plenty of power. I recommend Milwaukee blades in this saw. There is nothing they won't cut. If you want a strong saw that doesn't weigh a ton and don't want to spend a fortune this is the tool for you.I also like the shape of the hand grip areas. You don't need large hands to control this saw.
On a separate warranty card in the box:"Hitachi Products (except for Gas Driven Nailers, ... and Driver Blades) are warranted to the original purchaser for a period of five (5) years from the original purchase date for products purchased after October 1, 2003. ... Warranty coverage is conditioned upon purchaser furnishing Hitachi or its Authorized Services Center with adequate written proof of the original purchase date. ... The return of the Owner's Registration Card by the original purchaser within ten (10) days after the original purchase date is not a condition precedent to coverage under the warranty. ... Other than the purchase and insurance requirement, no charge shall be made for repairs covered by the warranty."Mine is a good tool with an exceptional warranty after all.
I am redoing my basement and wanted a easy way to cut the old stud partitions. After looking and reading about all the recip saws, I chose the CR13V. This saw did the job really well. The best part was that I didn't have to shell out mega bucks for a good saw. The only complaint I have is that it is a little heavy, but I did notice that when cutting the vibration was less than the Milwaukee I rented from the rental store before I bought the Hitachi CR13V. It comes with 1 blade, an allen wrench along and the case. It could have come with more blades.
