Both tools are rated highly as well. Customers awarded the Makita an rating on average of 4.7/5 stars. Contrast that to the Ingersoll-Rand EC300 that holds an average rating of 4.2/5 stars.

The XNJ01Z by Makita offers a few truly choice features such as Makita-built motor delivers 1, 900 SPM for fast and smooth cutting. The EC300 by Ingersoll-Rand by comparison, is hard to beat offering Cuts up to 18 gauge steel, aluminum, plastic or other metals and even 6 ft. Per minute cutting rate.

For the money, it works pretty damn good. Cuts clean and makes nice turns. Does a great job, a bonus for the money. Best of all, it didn't nibble at my budget. The Ingersoll-Rand EC300 is very well made and powerful.
