Editorial Review:

13", Heavy Duty, Portable 2 Speed Thickness Planer.

Sometimes, half an inch makes all the difference. But that's not the only reason to step up to the 735. Its powerful 10,000 rpm motor will handle anything you feed it--oak, walnut, exotics--with absolute ease. The three-knife cutterhead will make 96 or 179 cuts per inch, depending on which speed setting you choose. Mess is minimized with the fan-assisted chip ejection, which literally vacuums chips off the cutter-head and blows them out the exhaust. The 735's automatic carriage lock will save you from snipe by reducing the movement that causes it--what a great idea. We also love the redesigned thickness scale--it's big and super-visible, even in poor lighting. Those who do repetitive cuts will appreciate the turret depth-stop; set your most-used cuts to it once and you're always assured of accuracy. The home woodworker will be thrilled, and the professional's expectations will be more than met. This is a winner.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

good buy:

It is a pretty good planer, very solid. The only reason I'm writing this review is because I find it interesting that I bought this for about $425 almost 2 years ago. Skip investing in the stock market, I might just buy a truck-load of planers =)

Disapointed and now my back hurts:

I went to lowes after much anguish as to which planer to buy. I bought the dw735 at $549 brand new in the box factory sealed btw. Well I got the beast home by myself, down the steps, mounted onto my workbench. I also went out the next day and got some hose fittings so I could attach my vac if I wanted to. Well after all that I went to power it up for the first time this morning so I could plane the boards I have, and...... utter disapointment. The unit did not even power on. The manual said to check the... more info

Turning Wood into Noise!:

I bought this planer at the local woodworking show, in May 2006. For $400 out the door the dealer tossed in a spare set of knives and the dust collection system. Projects have included a new rudder and daggerboard keel for my sailboat, made from African mahogany, and this planer really did a nice job. I added a pair of in/outfeed tables and I highly recommend doing this. Raising the outfeed table slightly will eliminate most tendency to snipe. I also added the DW7350 mobile base, which I highly... more info

Works well at either speed.:

Works way better than the equivalent JET and much better than my (really) old Mikita. I recommend the folding table accessory, but I still get snipe on short boards. (Probably a matter of adjustment). I had been dreading the day that the blades needed to be changed (turned around actually, blades have two edges) but that turned out to be a snap! The rotating drum has pegs that fit into alignment holes in the blades. I rarely use it on the 'finish' speed (179 cuts per inch) as it works just fine at 'rough'... more info
