Rank #3 in Best Jigsaw 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Wattage Numbers That Don't Add Up
Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 B Cordless Jigsaw in L-BOXX
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Bosch Professional GST 18V-125 B sits third in this guide. It is an 18 V cordless jigsaw with a bow handle, a brushless motor and four-stage orbital action that the listing says lets you choose between fast cutting and clean cutting. It is priced at £212.19 and holds 4.6 out of 5 from 196 ratings. The scope of supply names the L-BOXX 136 and its inlay, one T 144 D Speed for Wood blade, a dust extraction set and an anti-splinter guard. Bevel cuts are listed up to 45 degrees, and the recommended surfaces are plastic and wood.
The specification table on the same page is where the numbers stop behaving. "Number of Teeth: 144" repeats the digits in the supplied blade's name, T 144 D. "Blade Length: 1 Centimetres" would make the blade shorter than the saw's own L-BOXX inlay, and the item's overall dimensions are given as 10 x 10 x 10 millimetres. A "Wattage: 180 watts" figure sits on a tool whose power source is listed as battery powered, with no battery or charger named anywhere in the box contents. Everything below comes from the Amazon listing for this jigsaw, not from a test of our own.
