Jigsaw of Leroy Merlin for 590 rubles. Is it worth buying?

At this time, going to the Leroy Merlin, I decided to buy the cheapest electric jigsaw which costs just 590 rubles. Price of course ridiculous, but whether it will work at all, and to perform their functions. That's what I was interested in the first place. Plus my old jigsaw was covered and it was necessary than the cut laminate (repair was in the apartment).

The weight of this device just a half kilogram body is made of plastic of low quality, but not looking at it in his hand is sitting quite comfortably and securely. Power jigsaw is only 350 watts, but it should suffice for basic operations. Included are: Instructions, blades for laminate, hex wrench for changing blades.

Sawing laminate quite smoothly and almost effortlessly. Also tried to saw the plywood bars and small thickness, copes with a bang. For a complete picture of tried to cut it out in the table top oval under the sink, but the challenge jigsaw barely coped. Power is clearly not enough, and nail file and then stop.

In the end, still managed to achieve a result, but it is better for complex technical work this jigsaw does not apply. Operates to this day, I apply it to the primitive work in the country and quite happy. For the price is considered a sin for something to complain about, because for 590 rubles now, even high-quality hand hacksaw can not buy.

After prolonged use Jigsaw gets very hot, so it is necessary to periodically turn off to cool down and burned. Due to the heat palpable smell of burnt plastic and China in this regard it is not recommended to prevent overheating.

Overall, a great budget jigsaw for small and complex work. Perfect for those who need an instrument at a time, such as I sawed laminate.
