The verdictOur take

The GST 160 BCE is Bosch's top corded bow handle jigsaw, with an 800W motor, 160mm wood capacity and a double roller blade guide, against 780W and 150mm on the GST 150 BCE. At 2.3kg it is 0.4kg lighter than the GST 150 BCE and declares a lower 8 m/s² cutting boards. It adds a worklight to the sawdust blower, and Bosch UK sells it in an L-BOXX with three blades, 240V only.
