  • great product
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
works great, accurate smooth finish - adjustable in small increments. handles easily I took 3/8" in increments ( with and against the grain of the wood) off bottom of a 2" solid mahogany front door in little time. I highly recommend this tool. You need one.

  • Fantastic Planer! Worth Every Penny!
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
I had several interior doors that were binding-up in spots, and decided it was finally time to do something about them.. Ordered this, and tackled them right away.. The planer worked flawlessly. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it's more technique than anything.. Watching a couple of youtube videos will help.. As well, you can adjust it to take off such a small amount of wood per pass, it's pretty hard to make a big mistake.. Firm pressure on the front plate at the beginning of the cut, and more pressure on the rear plate as you're finishing the cutting pass.. And as you build your technique, you can easily adjust the cutting depth to take a little more material off per pass.. The included metal guide was very helpful in keeping everything in alignment.. I didn't use the dust bag, but did appreciate the dual exhaust ports.. I would not buy one of these without that feature. The bottom-line is, I don't think I would have been any happier with a planer costing 2x-3x as much. I do wish it came with a tool bag (only the cardboard box), but otherwise, this is a fantastic planer, and a bargain at the price.. Very pleased with it.. ... show more

  • Parking Foot needs to be changed
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
The hand planer has a nice feel and balance to it and not as bulky and heavy as a lot of the lower priced ones. I bought it to plane down my deck joist. It does a nice job and has power to spare. But the problem I had with it is my joist is 15 feet long and if you want to go over the same spot a few times the wood is so smooth that the Parking Foot just slides on the wood and doesn't go down so if you want to start at a specific spot a lot of times you can't and then when l push down harder to make the Parking Foot go down it comes down too hard and gouges the joist. I'm thinking of just removing it and just being careful how I set it down, I'll have a lot more control that way. ... show more

  • Way better than I expected
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
I had 3 doors that needed to replaced. All of them needed to be planed in order to fit better. I really didn't want to spend $100-$200 dollars for a planer, so I bought an inexpensive portable Ryobi door trimmer at Home Depot ($20) which was a disaster. Next I rented a Milwaukee planer for a day ($25). Worked OK, but had issues. A few days later during some humid weather, two of the doors started to stick. By now, you have probably figured out I don't do carpentry for a living. So my next step was to look for a low cost alternative to the big brand name planers and came across this Porter-Cable. How bad could it be? After reading some positive reviews I ordered it. THIS IS NOT A CHEAP PLANER ALTERNATIVE. It was just as heavy and well built as the Milwaukee and worked better. The adjustments were easier, worked better, and it took me fewer passes. Surfaces were baby smooth. The planer guide helped keep the planner at right angles. Don't know anything about reliability, but for now I can highly recommend this planer. ... show more

  • Works as expected
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
I used it to plane pressure-treated 5/4 x 3-1/2 lumber, it works very well. The depth adjustment is easy to set, the tool is easy to handle, and leaves a smooth finish. Overall a good tool.

  • GREAT!!
Size: One Size Style: Hand Planer Only
For the price this thing is excellent. First time using a power planer and used it to aid in the construction of 2 new workbenches. We had this old lumber left over from when our barn was constructed 10 years ago sitting in the rafters. It was old and the surface layer was frayed, very course and dirty. I believe it was oak, but I took 4 1x12x14 and resurfaced all of it taking off 3/64th and 5/64 and the result was brand new lumber from the lumber yard. Also used it to level out a few pieces, but that took me a long time to get the hang of but by the end of the project I was doing it within 3-4 passes. The bag fills up ridiculously fast and is almost useless, I started to one hand the thing and hold the shopvac hose to the exhaust port which worked flawlessly. My shopvac has a 2 inch diameter hose so it does not fit the exhaust port on the planer. All in all being a complete noob when it comes to planing it went very well for me and I am glad i purchased it. It would slow down at times on big knots but that is to be expected. As far as how long the motor and the tool itself will last only time will tell. ... show more
