I am a hobbyist woodworker who had considered the DW735 for a while. However, I never really had the need for it. Then I found 2 lumber mills in the area, one that sells rough domestic lumber and one that sells rough exotic lumber. That's when it became possible to very quickly recoup the money for the planer through savings on lumber. I decided to buy the DeWalt DW735X because I wanted the infeed/outfeed. The extra set of knives is an attractive addition as well, given the less than stellar reviews of the longevity of the stock knives on this planer. The planer arrived on time and the box was in great condition. It's HEAVY (~90lbs), so either get a friend to help, or get a workout deadlifting the beast! The only things that needed attaching were the dust collection attachment, the infeed/outfeed tables and the wheel for the depth control. All of these items installed with the greatest of ease and I encountered no issues with setup whatsoever. My first test cut was on an extra piece of rough 6/4 ash that I had lying around. This piece had previously been run through a friend's planer, which got it down to thickness, but still left it pretty rough overall. In fact, I was skeptical about the value of any planer after that experience. But on the very first pass through the DW735 the ash came out butter smooth. Literally. The difference between the surface of that board before it went through the DW735 and after was night and day. AND IT HAD BEEN THROUGH A PLANER BEFORE! I hook my ShopVac directly to the dust port, so I can't comment on the strength of the chip ejection. However, I have removed the top in order to check everything out and I can report that there is a substantial fan mounted directly above and behind the knives and just in front of the port, so I have no doubt that the chips created would be tossed a good distance! The first project that I've worked on has been a nice wall shelf made out of solid cherry. I bought ~10 board feet of 4/4 rough lumber that I needed to plane down to 5/8", 1/2" and 3/8" sections. The boards were 4/4 x 8 1/2" x ~74". After squaring and cutting the boards to size, I started planing by removing around 1/32" on each pass. This was taking a while to get down to the desired thicknesses, so I decided to get a little more aggressive. I wasn't doing anything the machine isn't rated to handle...the depth gauge shows that up to 9" wide boards can take as much as 1/16" off on each pass. So I started taking that. The DW735 was working, but not noticing all that much. Things went much faster after that. The results of the planing were astounding. My boards are exactly the thicknesses that I need them and they are SMOOOOOTH! And I only used the 96 CPI setting! I sanded the boards with my random orbital to 220 and they are absolutely perfect. I'm pretty sure that they were already ~100 grit smooth after being planed down, again, on the 96 CPI setting. I'm not sure what grit the 192 CPI setting creates, but I'd be shocked if it was less than 120-150. I have only used the DW735X on a single project. But the ease of set up, the ease of use and the results that I have seen after that single project, along with the savings in lumber costs, have already made me a firm advocate of this planer. If you have access to rough lumber and you work more than a couple of projects per year and you're considering a planer, DO IT! You will not regret the DW735X! The pics are the 2 boards, still rough. The 2nd is a single board before being planed. The last pic is of the different boards I needed, planed to 5/8", 1/2" and 3/8". ... show more

Excellent finish and easy to use
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
I am a weekend woodworker and was in need of a planer to help take my woodworking to the next level. After looking at a few different planers I decided on the DW735X and I am glad i did. It has quickly become one of the most useful tools in my shop. Setup was very easy, and it leaves boards extremely smooth. I usually only need some light sanding after planing. The planer is loud, although that's something I expected from a planer. The overall design is very well thought out. It's easy to open the top and access the three blades when they need to be changed or rotated. Overall, I am very impressed with the planer and even though it is a bigger purchase it will save me quite of bit of money as I can now buy rough sawn lumber and mill it. ... show more

Beast. Simply put.
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
If you're doing softwoods this thing is a beast. If you're doing Hardwoods it's still a beast but I would consider changing to a helical head. And since I do Hardwoods I don't even consider it. I already did it. It's got great power easy to keep clean I've got a separator set up for it it doesn't even need it back really you just have to have a catch bag. The blow force will keep it clean as long as you got no obstructions. It's probably the best small shop cleaner that I've seen. You can build sleds for it and do planing as well as jointing. It's an expensive tool but it does a really good job. And a really useful job ... show more

I will update but initial impression is five stars
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
***update 5/2/2024*** I purchased a cyclone that attaches to a 5 gallon bucket to collect all the chips. This solution required a little tweaking (and a tool to cut the elbow to squeeze it into the planer dust port) to works, but the chips are no longer covering my driveway. It came with a hose, two elbows and a lid for the 5 gallon bucket. Dust extraction note: No dust extractor is required and I think it might actually be detrimental. The blower on the planer blows things out like a vacuum. This does create an issue when the cyclone doesn't latch and expects a vacuum to lock the lid in place. I used some small Irwin quick clamps in three locations to lock the lid on and tight. I got no leaking from the side. The exposed top let dust escape, but you can attach your hose with the vacuum off and turn on when done planing if that dust bothers you. The planer does seem to leave a lot of chips on the blades, in the carriage, and after some use, that starts coming out the front of the machine. I cleaned up my area after every couple of boards. So don't expect dust free operation. Apart from hating the mess, my concern was that the chips would impact the flatness of the boards. So, heads up. Noise: My wife said it was loud. I had ear protection on, and it sounded like a table saw/miter saw. She, however, made a note of the noise from her office, and while she could tell I was working with the other tools, she knew I was using the planer. I wasn't even doing wide hardwood pieces. Mostly cedar and 4-6" pieces. So, be aware. with my ear protection on it was like any other machine to me. ********** Dewalt 735x - purchased/used April 29, 2024 The good: Set up is easy. Comes with a useful torx tool annd magnet on the handle. For setup Attach the turning handle (need a tool to hold the shank while unscrewing the bolt and screwing the handle on). Need to level the plates (need 36” flat level. (Need small hex key for leveling player, I forgot the size). Attach the dust port. I also opened up the top (for screws) and then the blade cover to check on the blades. It looked like a test run had been done as I found slight traces of sawdust. No excess oil. The boards ran smoothly. While the blades are sharp, the machine is awesome. I understand that the blades can dull quickly though so fyi. It pulls the boards right out of my hands and has great power. It THROWS the chips and you will want a method to collect chips that are not a vacuum. A hose and a bucket or something. The force of the blower looks like it’s easily enough and a vacuum might be an issue. I need to find a chip collector method and I’ll update. Lots of great YouTube videos on setup, tear down, replacing blades with helical blades. Looks easy to break down and access parts (although replacing the head looks time consuming) The bad: This will likely trip a 15amp circuit. Online testing shows this can spike to 30amps and should run on a 20amp circuit. The safety on the dewalt trips around 18amps in theory, but online says that the wires connected to it are smaller and they can melt over time when under a lot of load. This can damage the safety mechanism that makes sure the machine doesn’t run when the top is off (and ironically it CAN run when it’s off). Blades are supposed to dull quickly and are expensive. I’ve run 8 boards about 6” wide and 8’ long once on each side fast and once slow. Performance is good so far. Pine and oak mix. My final conclusion is that the internet has lots of customization and fixes, which look relatively easy to do, but right out of the box everything is awesome. TBD what I think a year from now. It was between this and the cutech and I ultimately decided on this because cutech never got back to me about questions I asked them. If dewalt fails at least I have some warranty and a ton of videos help me fix myself. ... show more

Fine tool
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
Delivery was a full week late but that was no fault of Amazon. The original delivery company subbed out the package to a 2nd company and they didn't want to drive all the way out here for just this one item. But it arrived in great condition. Reading some other reviews I opened the box and immediately took the planer apart to check for excess lubricant. I wiped down the knives with a clean rag. I doubt there was enough to cause any problems with my project but it was noticeable. Straight out of the box this thing is beautiful to look at! I built a new 2'x4' work bench to attach it to with a roller from HF set at the same level as the infeed table. I felt safer with this than just a stand because this is going to be used mostly outside the shop. I think the work table will be more stable setting in the yard than a small stand would be. After bolting it down to the work surface I just sat and admired it for about an hour. It looked to pretty to dirty it up with wood. Warning!!! The blades are beyond razor sharp. Use a small peice of stock to rotate the knife head as instructed. I didn't and quickly got red blotches on my beautiful yellow machine. My first project was a 24"x40" toy chest for the grandkids. Ran some cured rough cut pine through it ripped down to 6" wide peices. This is my first big planer so I didn't know what to expect. After a couple passes on each side the wood came out glass smooth and ready for stain. The planer does a fantastic job and is really much easier to use than I expected. All the gauges and instructions make this great for a novice user. It is loud and creates a lot of shavings so I was right about putting it outside rather than using it in the shop. After I get wheels on the bench I am confident I will be able to move it around by myself. I have over 1500' of rough cut pine drying out that will be planed in 8'-12' sections. I look forward to several hours of work/fun with this machine. The planer is heavy, 100 lbs by itself. It is compact but extremely stable so use on a concrete floor shop shouldn't cause you any tipping problems. The machine does all the work for you. Just insert the wood a couple inches and it takes over. Wood chips fly feet out the ejection port. Makes a really smooth finish on setting #2. I don't think I will ever need to use setting #1 for the type of things I build. I don't really know that anyone would need to use #1 unless you worked a lot with hard woods. This is a very expensive tool that does an oustanding job of cutting wood down to a smooth surface. I would highly recommend it for that purpose. Can't say enough good things about it so far. ... show more

Good planer so far
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
I grabbed this planer for my tiny apartment “workshop” because my side projects eat rough lumber like crazy. The math made sense fast once i stopped paying the store to mill everything. I liked that the DW735X comes with the infeed and outfeed tables plus the extra knife set, that part feels pretty handy. First big test was a weekend run of cherry boards for a bookshelf I promised my sister. It chewed through the stack and the boards came out smooth enough that I only needed light sanding. Only thing that bugs me is the noise, even with ear protection it’s a lot for a small place, but price wise it’s been worth it for me. ... show more

Absolute beast of a planer! Super accurate and very durable! Very easy to set up with the in feed and out feed tables just have to make sure they are level to ensure no snipe at all. Very heavy so having it in a stationary spot or on a moveable base is a good idea. Using a dust seperator like the dust deputy is also a must as this puts off wood chips and fills a 5 gallon bucket fast. The blades are easy to clean and sharpen as well. Static discharge has been my only problem so far with this planer more due to low humidity in shop. Love that this is also an upgradable planer with options like helix blade and digital gauge easily addable. Price is expensive but you’re getting quality for what you pay for and this is a one and done purchase if you need a bench planer. Handles pine to reclaimed chestnut very good! ... show more

"Portable" Does Not Mean "It Sucks"
Style: 2-Speed 13" w/Feed Tables & Extra Blades
Know that I have never used a planer before, but I am an Engineer and tool enthusiast. I knew I needed to get a planer if I was going to work with wood from an early enough stage to make the end product satisfactory. I had looked at the DW735 (sans X - as in not the package) in the past, and I wasn't impressed by the reviews. I was also a little hesitant to go with a portable model, thinking that meant it wouldn't be as strong and hardcore as some big models by Grizzly, etc. I also don't really like that the blades are more or less disposable, but really - how is that different than my miter saw, table saw, or any other saw? At least you can get a set of double-sided blades for about $35 under the right circumstances. Anyway, this package deal made all the reviewers a lot happier, not having any problems with snipe by adding the infeed and outfeed tables. And when the price was right, I snatched it up for much cheaper than the non-package version. Now I am very impressed with this tool, and once again pleased with my purchase (not to mention myself for researching and having patience to wait for a good price). A lot of non-portable planers are just like this or even less than this, but with a base attached. And although I may break down and buy or build some kind of base for this thing - because it is heavy - I actually really like being able to store it on a shelf: if you are strong and can move this from shelf of proper height to a workbench without having to bend, it's sort of convenient that it doesn't take up much room. But...you can imagine how if it is too difficult to get to, you may not use it as often as you should. I can't see myself needing something larger than this planer's 13x6" capacity. At my local wood store, anything bigger than that is already planed. The hardwood place also said they typically charge about $5/board to process wood, so you can calculate for yourself how quickly owning this will pay off. But more importantly for me is convenience of having the ability to mill my own stock when I need it and the satisfaction of doing it myself. Heck, even just for regular DIY projects involving 2x4s from HD, this thing can be very useful. Think about how often you wished you had a board of a specific odd thickness just for finish carpentry (especially when working with a non-standard old house like I have). My boards have all come out super smooth on the first try on the fast setting so far (but you can read tons of reviews about people using this for the hardest of woods and yaddy yaddy yadda in other reviews), but I'm also quite impressed with some of the convenience features such as the removal gauge that shows you how much it will take off right as you start to stick a board in and the positive stops for common thicknesses set by a mechanical dial. The regular gauge is nice, and I'm really surprised how well this works with my small 800 CFM dust collector: it leaves some big chips behind, but there are not many small (dangerous) particles in the air afterward. I also like that the in- and out-feed tables are removable without having to actually loosen any screws (it ends up working like a push-button) and I like that they tilt upward for when you want to move the machine. However, you must press the button and sort of shimmy things around to get them to tilt up, which seems a little less than perfect. I am quite happy with my new planer, especially since I got a good price on the package model. Even though I like to have the best of the best, even if it costs more, I don't think I'll ever wish for a bigger or better planer. I do realize, however, I am going to need a jointer as well to really be able to do whatever I want with wood stock. Highly recommended. ... show more
