What am I looking for when buying a jig saw for occasional use?

Does anybody know of any good deals at the moment?

Thanks

Hi Doug, If you are willing to spend around 30 - 50 pounds then I would recommend the Ryobi 600 normally just under £50. You will get cheaper makes of jigsaw but I have always found Ryobi to be good for diy use.

id say go for a ryobi or green bosch as all the others will be terrible for cutting a good square edge
