Brand new 7Amp Bosch Jigsaw info?

kenackr | Posted in Tools for Home Building on

I received an email the other day that announced a brand new 7 amp corded jigsaw from Bosch. It’s advertised for sale on Tool Barn but with a delayed delivery date, meaning the tool is so new it’s not in stock at retailers yet. I have been meaning to purchase the 6.5 amp 1591EVSK that has excellent reviews.

Does anyone out there have any more info on it than the Bosch web site? Specifically, other than the increased power, are there any other new features beyond the  1591EVSK ? OR were there any features the 1591EVSK has that got lost on the new model?

    I think they did away with the nice carbide jaws on the 1591, don't know why.

    The 1591 is a great jig saw, the equal to the Festool (which I own) in every way.
