Review: Just plane awesome!! - This is my first planer so i cant compare it to dewalt or others. But from what i have seen , i am very happy with the results. The snipe is minor and with a little tweaking you can reduce the snipe to a very acceptable level. There is plenty of you tube tutorials on how to do this. This is a top notch machine and well worth the price. Tip: unless you have a very strong suction on a dust collector dont bother with the shroud. It will just clog up fast.
Review: good starter planer - Does a smooth enough job planing for a 2-blade unit. I use it outdoors so don't really use the dust collection adapter, but it looks like a design after though. The thickness crank works smoothly enough. I still get some snipe on the board ends no matter how I adjust things, it's just the nature of budget planers. I just get longer boards and cut off the bad ends. Keep some extra blade sets on hand since all it takes is one impurity in your board to damage them, and hardwoods also wear them out fast. Good enough for someone who is just starting woodworking or a casual weekender.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality tool
*by R***H on August 21, 2025*

It works well on softer woods. Haven’t tried it on hardwood. Easy to use and adjust. It came perfectly level. Typical noise level for this type of planer.
