AI Review Summary:
Across major retailers, buyers praise the M12 HACKZALL for its compact size and one‑handed control in tight spaces, noting clean cuts in PVC, wood, and light metals. Many highlight fast blade changes and good ergonomics; runtime with the included 1.5Ah battery is described as adequate for small jobs but short for all‑day use. Some users report noticeable vibration on metal and recommend higher‑tooth blades; a minority wished for more power versus 18V saws. Representative quotes: “Perfect for overhead cuts where a full‑size saw won’t fit,” “Battery swaps are quick—keep a spare handy,” and “Great for trim and plumbing, but not a demolition monster.”
