  • 5.0 out of 5 stars One h$ll of a planer
Using this for a 30 foot wooden boat. The piece you see was part of an epoxy glue up. 2 passed and it is smooth as can be. This is a serious planer at 6.5 inches. Has the power back it up. Typical Makita, very well done.

  • 4.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't do without it...
I bought this machine because it was more affordable than the 12" version. I'm building a timber frame structure consisting mostly of 7"x9" white oak timbers. This unit requires that I make at least two passes to cover the full timber. That hasn't been a problem because of the ability of this tool to feather its cut. Either by simply lifting the tool gradually as you go or by rotating the blade height knob or a combination of both, you can feather the cut to suit your needs. You can achieve very polished cuts with this tool. On the negative side of things, there's only one that drives me nuts. The power cord is long. That's good. However, it's made with the stickiest rubber I've ever seen in a power cord. It will catch on anything near your board. Any nubs, protrusions or splinters, this cord hangs up. Even the end of your board as you're pushing away. It creates such resistance that it forces you to stop (thus putting a burn mark on your board), take one hand off the machine, and reach back to force it off. My cord is showing signs of shredding due to this issue. It once got caught by the blade! Luckily, it didn't engage the actual wire. They provide a small, screw mounted wire at the back corner of the tool to hold the cord away from one edge or the other. I found it to be mostly ineffective. You'll have to either place the cord over your shoulder, have someone follow you while holding the cord out of the way or attach a hook overhead and hang the cord from above. It is VERY annoying. Also, on long timbers, when you walk back to the starting end, be careful to hold the machine away from you (or shut the tool off), otherwise there's a chance the blade's inside corner edge will cut your pants or shirt. The base of the tool is aluminum. It has accumulated a great number of scratches, some deeper than others. I wish the base was more resistant to such abuse. I don't believe it has any negative affects on the performance right now, but possibly in the future. The tool, with a sharp blade, makes wonderful fine shavings (excellent compost material). the exhaust port for those shavings however is an odd shape. Sort of tear drop shaped. I have yet to see any vacuum receptacle available that would fit such an opening. In the beginning I tried making a little flap to reign-in the spray, but it would sometimes clog the opening. I just leave it open now to blow all over the place. The ergonomics are fine. The weight is appropriate. The few negatives were not deal breakers for me. I do like this tool (a lot). It makes an enormous job easy and efficient. I'd buy it again, but I shouldn't have to, it's build quality is very high. Just look at the plywood case it comes packaged in! ... show more

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars When you're ready for the real thing, not a toy.
I struggled with the DeWalt battery-powered planer, which was so bad I returned it and got this instead. This is a beast. It comes in a traditional wooden Japanese carpenter's box, and has all of the accessories you need, including a sharpening jig and adjustment tools. Mine was dead-on right out of the box, no adjustments needed (but check anyway). Very powerful, this makes silky-smooth cuts, even on hardwood with difficult grain directions and knots. The large beds make it easy to work large slabs, and it comes with an angle attachment for edges. Long cord is great. This unit is heavy, so you will get a bit of a workout using it, but once you are working a large piece, it glides beautifully. There is no chip/dust collection, so be prepared to clean up fine shavings inches deep. ... show more

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars Big sweet 'ol gal!
Squares up beams nicely. Looks a little too big to be a hand tool, but glides along smooth.

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars Careful starting to plane. Has a serious bite to it.
Every time I look back at that beautiful planed cedar, after one swipe, I acknowledge this tool is so worth the price. Thank you Makida, just finished 100 6x6x12’s and they look great.

  • 4.0 out of 5 stars Wooden planer box shattered for 2nd time
The 1st time I purchased this item, the wooden case it came in was blown apart in shipping. The tool shifting inside blew out the corners and dislodged the holding blocks. I sent it back, worry of any damage to the planer. The 2nd purchase arrived the same way but to a lesser extent. I rebuilt the box. The tool itself works beautifully. The throat can get clogged if you're taking a deep bite and the wood is damp at all. It is heavy but you want that. ... show more

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars Good planer
I have been using one of these for 10 years, great planer, bought a spare in case it breaks on the job one of these days, as nothing lasts forever . Have gone through heavy duty planning, probably have replaced or sharpened at least 10 sets of planer blades, otherwise not had any issues
