In my opinion, the short answer is "no". In fact, the Trion is the worst jigsaw I've owned in the past 40 years. I've had mine for about 13 years now. My objections to it are the ridiculously slow blade change/adjustment protocols, endemic inaccuracy, limited (real world) capacity compared to others and inordinately short blade life.
In deference to others on this website, some think the sun shines out of it's derriere! Just because I hate mine, it doesn't necessarily follow that another shall. Some seem all too willing to overlook, or haven't found it's (to me glaringly obvious) shortcomings.
There are however some excellent alternatives available. Some will be superior in certain aspects only, and perhaps a little wanting in others. It depends on your own personal needs & expectations, and your intended use.
Makita's 4351FCT is in budget, has similar power but greater capacity, both grip styles, LED lights, a blower & a semi-systainer available. It's also (I believe) a patriotic choice in being UK-made. GBP 126 @ FFX
Bosch GST160 has both grips, (almost) the most power & capacity (equal to Hitachi & slightly less than Mafell), switchable blower, lights, easy tilt the lightest weight & a Sortimo system case. GBP 230 everywhere.
Hitachi has, in common to Bosch, Metabo, Festo & Mafell a 3 year warranty, the most weight (along with Mafell & Metabo), huge capacity, easy tilt, blower, lights & a systainer available. GBP 150 @ FFX
Mafell has no lights, needs an accessory tilt base, but has the longest blade life, most power, capacity & (most importantly) accuracy of the lot. It also has the best blade grip, pendulum action and blade release mechanisms. Plus the best blower, which partly makes up for the lack of lights. Its also eye-wateringly exxy. GBP 400 in a systainer.
Metabo (at least the 140 PLUS models) have slightly less power, but ergonomically superior handling. The smallest motor diameter on the market makes for the best, easiest & safest bodygrip available. It also come in a handled model, but is probably the only saw of this bunch which would be better in a bodygrip iteration than a bowhandled version. The switchable blower, twin lights & auto speed accelerator makes it the most user friendly of the lot in my opinion. GBP 180 in a systainer, 150 without.
Mafell of course don't make a top handled model.
It's probably the easiest of all for me to follow a faint cutline with my less than perfect vision, and probably the least dependent saw on dust extraction, which is a pet hate of mine. The best dust-free (extracted) performance is probably from Mafell, followed by Festo.
The Festo is, well perhaps best ignored in relation to these alternatives. It tends to be rather comprehensively outperformed in almost all parameters in this company. But as previously mentioned, there are some that might disagree...
Mafell, Bosch & Metabo would be my choice for cutting sheet steel & aluminium extrusions.
