Need to make curved or intricate cuts in wood, plastic, or thin metal?
A jigsaw is the go-to power tool for curved cuts, cutouts, and detailed shapes. Whether you’re installing a kitchen worktop, cutting plywood for shelving, or making decorative shapes, a jigsaw gives you precision and versatility that a circular saw can’t match.
With Poppins, cut like a pro. Our app connects you with neighbors and local shops who have a jigsaw available right now. You might find one on your street — ready to pick up today.

Where can I find a jigsaw quickly?
Although Poppins covers the entire country of France, you have a 95% chance of finding a device within 15 minutes of your location if you live in Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Nantes, Lille, Toulouse, or Marseille. In these cities, the density of our network (neighbors + partner retailers) guarantees immediate choice.
Is it worth buying a jigsaw?
The math is simple. You can find saws for €30, but they cut crooked. A good saw costs €150. To install a sink every 5 years, renting a pro model is much smarter.
On the Poppins app, you will find jigsaws for all materials (wood, metal, plastic).For small DIY jobs or cutting paneling, a standard jigsaw offered by a neighbor is sufficient.For thick cuts (worktops) or precision work, choose a powerful pendulum jigsaw (available from our pro partners). The pendulum motion helps the blade bite into the wood.Important: Check the type of blade provided (Wood, Metal, Fine Cut)!
Which jigsaw should I choose?
On the Poppins app, the choice depends on your precision:
- Standard Jigsaw: For quick or rough cuts. Sufficient for light demolition or thin wood.
- Pendulum Jigsaw: The blade moves forward and backward to cut faster. Essential for thick wood.
- Cordless Jigsaw: Convenient for working without an annoying cable, especially for complex curved cuts.
