Just got this saw the other day gotta say, it's a great, it even helped in the production of a crab cleaning table! Great features like the hanging hook to keep the saw out of the way between cuts the power cord doesn't just swivel but it also seems a bit longer than most saws which is nice of course it has the one handed blade changing that is really easy you can insert the blade either way so flush cutting is possible so that's another nice feature. 12 amps is enough power for any job that I'll encounter as a do-it-yourselfer. I will give people reading this a heads up tho, I actually bought mine from Lowe's, saved about $20, it came in a hard plastic case that included 1 multi-purpose blade 1 wood/metal blade. If you're looking for a sawzall, I don't think you'll go wrong if you go with this one.
