   I had to cut 2 ft X 2 ft window openings in several steel doors, and decided to try one of these rather than fighting it with a saber saw. I expected the foam core to present problems, but after quickly cutting through 48 feet of steel in the doors it was still cutting great. Because of the complaints many have had about the sharp little shavings produced by the tool, I used a shop vac to collect them as I cut. I got my money's worth just on this project, and it's still performing like new, so I am delighted with the purchase and looking for other things to use it on. Quieter than a saber saw and no bent, broken, or worn out blades. Definitely recommend this if you have sheet metal work which doesn't lend itself to the tools you already have in hand.

   Outstanding quality for the price. I have only used it for a few minutes so durability is still to be seen, but the manufacturing and design quality are incredible for this price point. Even the metal box it came in is very nice, clearly identified and sturdy, I'm usually not a fan of tools coming in boxes I don't plan to keep the tool in, but this one is a keeper.

   Amazingly effective tool for cutting through sheet metal, although it won't leave you with smooth cut. Basically it works like a very fast hole punch so you get lots of little semi circles along the path you cut. It is extremely efficient at cutting fast and it is easy to control and change direction while cutting. I found when I went slow I could minimize the rough edges enough to make it fairly easy to clean up with a metal file or pair of snippets.

   I bought this nibbler to do some auto body work, and had low expectations for a tool this inexpensive. I tell you what though, this nibbler impressed me. It cuts sheet metal quick and easy, while leaving a smooth edge. No extra grinding required because the nibbler doesn't leave burrs. It also allows for smooth direction changes in your cut. I was able to lay a paper template over my workpiece and just use the nibller to follow the pattern with no problems. It comes with 3 heads, a replacement blade, and even a nice metal box to hold everything. Considering this costs even less than a hand nibbler, you can't go wrong. I'm still on my first blade and even if this thing breaks now, I've gotten my money's worth and would buy another one. The one thing you have to look out for are the slivers of metal that are created when you cut. They get everywhere. Lay something down under your workpiece to catch them and have your shop vac handy.

   This takes getting use to. It cuts not like your typical jig saw. It's smoother and glides smoothly so you can loose control if you don't go slow. It cuts effortlessly. Unless your typical saw, the cuts are wider about 3/16 so you have to take that in consideration. I found that out when I made my cut. They don't tell you that on the videos. Much easier than snippers.

   So there are multiple double headed cutters to choose from with multiple prices. After reading some reviews I chose the nibbler this. Never used one or even saw one before. This is a simple tool to set up. I used a 20v angle drill to make the circular cut in the HVAC trunk. I had to remove the drop ceiling tile in order to make the cuts. When I could not make the complete cut I switched out the guide to the other cutting head and continued the cut. Very easy to do. I would recommend this for the homeowners who need to make cuts every so often.
