Rank #8 in Best Jigsaw 2026: 10 Ranked, and the Wattage Numbers That Don't Add Up
Einhell 18V PXC Cordless Jigsaw, Body Only
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The Einhell Cordless Jigsaw 18V PXC is a bare-tool jigsaw in Einhell's Power X-Change battery family, priced at £48.47 and sitting at number 8 in this guide. It is rated 4.5 out of 5 from 5,771 ratings, and 71% of those ratings are five-star against 4% at one star. The listing describes an 18 V lithium-ion tool with a quadruple adjustable pendulum stroke, an LED light, a dust blow-off function, a vacuum cleaner adapter and tool-free blade changes.
Two numbers in that same listing do not sit easily together. The wattage field reads 12 watts, on a tool whose voltage field reads 18 volts and whose speed field reads 3000 RPM. And the batteries field says "1 Unknown batteries required." while the bullets say supply without rechargeable battery pack and the included components say Bare Tool — so the page asks for a battery it also says is not in the box. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing as it is written; we have not tested the tool ourselves.
