Overview
The DEWALT DW331K is a corded jig saw rated at 445 watts running on 230 volts, and its alloy steel construction signals durability built for trade use. With 1,300 verified reviews and a 4.7-star rating, it carries one of the strongest owner-feedback records in this jig saw group.
At $189.00 it costs $69 more than the DEWALT DW317K and matches the price of the BOSCH JS470EB. Buyers who value a large, trustworthy review base will find the DW331K reliable. The 50 units bought last month is modest relative to the DEWALT DCS331B cordless model, but its sustained review history reflects long-term market confidence.
The listed voltage is 230 volts, which buyers in North America should verify against their market variant, as US standard household outlets supply 120 volts. No blade speed or stroke length is published, so direct feature-for-feature comparisons require checking the retailer listing.

Frequently asked questions
Is the DEWALT DW331K a 120V or 230V saw?
The listed voltage is 230 volts. Buyers in the US should confirm with the seller whether a 120V North American variant is available, as 230V tools require a step-up transformer on standard US household circuits.

Both are priced at $189.00. The BOSCH JS470EB lists 840 watts at 3100 RPM and has 1,200 reviews. The DEWALT DW331K lists 445 watts and has 1,300 reviews. The Bosch publishes more speed and power data; the DEWALT has a slightly larger review pool.
