Very pleased with this planer
Very pleased with this planer. It is a HUGE improvement over the 3 Mastercraft Thickness Planers i've gone through over the last 7 years. This one is a joy to use and does an excellent job. This is a tool that I'll be usingon a nearly daily basis in my woodshop. I'll be building a portable cabinet/ stand for it after the holidays.

    Cuts very smooth. I will see how long that lasts once the blades wear. I am planing soft wood and it does a good job. There is some snipe but finishing up with a thin cut or 2 helps eliminate it as well as proper support of the lumber as it exits the planer.

    J’ai acheté ce produit pour des fins de bricolage. C’était la première fois que j’utilisais un planeur. Je l’utilise pour du bois franc et je suis très satisfait. Il est facile à comprendre. Le guide explicatif est dans les trois langues; anglais, français et espagnol. Il y a de bons conseils. Il est primordial de le lire.

    La livraison était prévue un mercredi et je l’ai reçu le jour précédent le mardi. Comme je demeure dans un secteur boisé, le livreur n’a pas voulu me le livrer à ma porte. J’ai dû prendre ma voiture pour me rendre au bout de mon chemin privé et le récupérer. Heureusement, le livreur m’a appelé en arrivant et je suis aller le rejoindre.

    Almost Perfect, a few things could use improvement like another depth stop on the left side of the machine. i noticed that when using the 3/4" and 1/2" depth stop if i put a little to much pressure on the stop while lowering the blades so it would be a fraction of an inch lower on the side without the stop, kind of annoying when trying to do a glueup of panels and the thicknesses are off it just creates more work. great planer but if your buying it from amazon, save up and buy the dw735 as the price difference is worth it, as im pretty sure they address that issue, but i could be wrong.
    oh and the rollers dont pull your workpiece through when its cold outside, at least I think thats my issue.

    Still need to make a wheeled cart and get a cheap dust collector but I planed a few 8 and 12 foot spruce boards and it did a nice job. I noticed very little snipe right out of the box. The tool to change the blades was missing but I called DeWalt and they are sending a replacement. Next up is sixteen 2x6x12 larch boards for the surface of the deck I'm building. I'm hoping this will last me many years to come. I live in a rural area where rough lumber is a lot cheaper than hardware store lumber so this will be getting a lot of use in the next few years.

    best ever! I wasn't sure how this would do, and well its perfect. and collected the cedar shavings are good for my dog house and his run area.

    the ease in which this works is like cutting through warm butter. settings are easy to adjust and the finish is super smooth. no sanding needed

    I have been using this planer for about 3 months, and am still happy with it. A couple things could be better, but for the most part it has been one of those tools that you can rely on to do what it is supposed to.

    === The Good Stuff ===

    * My planer is permanently mounted to a work table with four mounting bolts. These are not included-but they would never guess the right length anyway, so not a big deal. The planer is heavy, the instructions say 80 LBS, but it seemed lighter than that, so you may need a second person to help lift it into place.

    * Within an hour of opening the box (and most of that time was spent reading the manual thoroughly), I was planing cedar. The tables seemed perfectly adjusted out of the box, and I got very smooth finishes with no snipe at all. Operation is relatively simple and mostly intuitive.

    * Most of my planing is oak-typically resurfacing oak that I have reclaimed from old furniture or cabinets (much cheaper to buy oak at a thrift store than a lumberyard). It does an excellent job on oak, although you will occasionally get some slight snipe at the ends of previously finished lumber.

    * I do not have a dust collection system, but my large shop vac attached to the rear port does a very nice job on dust and shavings. I do get a little dust, but very minimal amounts, and most of that is probably blow-by from the hose connectors. If I wasn't so lazy, a more permanent "clamped" connection would work better. I do use a respirator when planing old pre-finished wood- there is no telling what is in the finishes.

    * After planing about 1200 lf of oak, mostly 5-7" wide, the blades started showing signs of dullness. Cuts were still clean, just not as smooth as they used to be. Swapping the knives turned out to be about a 20 minute project the first time, although I am sure it will be about half that next time. (Careful, real easy to cut yourself).

    I also added a "lap counter" to the side of the table- the kind track coaches use to count laps. They are about $5, and I use them to track how much wood goes across the planer. One click = 10'. Not 100% accurate, but good for monitoring blade use.

    * The small gauge to estimate the amount of material to be removed works great! I have found with planing oak that two or three very small passes (1/32 or so) works about the best, although you can sneak by with a 1/16 then a 1/32 without much difference.

    * I seldom plane anything longer than 8', and so far have not felt the need to purchase or build any extension feed tables.

    === The Not-So-Good Stuff ===

    * The height gauge is a bit inexact for my needs. I added a Wixey 850 to the planer, and love it. This should have been a part of the planer to start with.

    * There is a "hard stop" for common thicknesses. I use the 3/4" one quite a bit, but I find it to be a little unrepeatable (+/- 0.08 or so.. Not a major deal, but occasionally enough to be annoying.. The problem is that while the stop is fixed, you have to rely on "feel" to determine how tight to crank down on the head adjustment against the stop. The Wixey has been repeatable to 0.02 or so.

    * I wish the in and outfeed trays would fold up. They stick out over the front and rear of my work bench, and I hate having tools get bumped.

    * The on/off switch is easy to use, provided you are standing in the front of the unit. However at about the half-way point in any planing, you are now standing at the back of the unit, and there is no way to get to the switch quickly in an emergency. As with all my tools, I added "panic buttons to the tables, and in this case, added on front and rear.

    === Summary ===

    While there are some parts of this tool that I wasn't totally thrilled with, they were relatively easy to correct, and the planer is now a trusted and often-used part of my shop. So far it has been used for roughly 75% red oak, 15% cedar and 10% poplar, and has performed well on all of these. I have trued-up some cupped wood without much trouble, although the cups were relatively slight-maybe 1/8 or so.
