Rank #10 in Best Reciprocating Saw 2026: 10 Ranked, and Why the Spec Table Lies
POSENPRO 750W Electric Sabre Saw, 0-2800 SPM
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The POSENPRO PPRS41GB is a corded 750W reciprocating saw at £39.99, and it sits tenth in this guide. As with the rest of the list, the most useful thing in the listing is what its own numbers say about themselves: the spec table gives the speed as 2,800 RPM, while the bullets and the item highlight in the same listing give it as 0–2,800 spm — strokes per minute. RPM describes something spinning; a reciprocating saw drives a blade back and forth, so the figure is probably right and the unit almost certainly is not.
Two numbers decide how quickly this saw cuts, and only one of them is anywhere near the table. The listing quotes a 20mm stroke length in the item highlight and again in the variable-speed bullet, and the spec table has no stroke length field at all. The 4.5 rating comes from 54 ratings, with 71% of them five stars and 5% at two stars, and the saw ranks 22nd in Reciprocating Saws. The listing says it cuts metal conduit, copper pipe, PVC tubing, wood, wood with nails and plasterboard, and recommends wood, metal and plastic; the box holds two wood blades, two metal blades and two spare carbon brushes. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing for this saw — we have not tested it ourselves.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“With the colour green and red colour scheme I thought I was buying a Bosch on sale. (I was in a rush and just clicked on the image) It arrived on time, good quality. I've been using it to replace decking. Does the job, no issues, quick blade change useful. Would buy again. Value for money:Half the price of the Bosch, good enough for the few jobs I am doing. Build quality:Very GoodEase of use:Quick change blade holder is useful”
Verified purchase“Great tool, just finished using it to cut up a large old shed. Like the quite heavy weight makes it feel sturdy and less likely to kick back. Seems great quality and excellent value for money.”

Questions people ask
How fast does the POSENPRO PPRS41GB cut?
The listing answers this twice and differently: the spec table says 2,800 RPM, while the bullets and the item highlight say 0–2,800 spm. Strokes per minute is the figure that applies to a reciprocating saw, because the blade moves back and forth rather than rotating.
What is the stroke length?
20mm. The listing gives that figure in the item highlight and in the variable-speed bullet — it does not appear in the spec table.
Does it run on a battery?
No. The spec table lists the power source as corded electric at 230 volts AC, so the 750 watts comes from a mains supply.
What does the listing say it will cut?
Metal conduit, copper pipe, PVC tubing, wood, wood with nails and plasterboard. The surface recommendation field reads wood, metal and plastic.
What is in the box?
The listing lists 1× 750W reciprocating saw, 2× wood cutting blades, 2× metal cutting blades, 2× replacement carbon brushes, 1× hex wrench and 1× user manual.
How is it rated and where does it rank?
4.5 out of 5 from 54 ratings — 71% of those at five stars and 5% at two stars — and 22nd in Reciprocating Saws within DIY & Tools.
