Planer works well, but has some snipe that I cannot get rid of by adjusting the infeed and outfeed tables. I assume that the snipe is caused by the headstock tilting when the board is only on one of the rollers. I solved this by running an 8 inch piece before and after my work piece.

Didn’t seem to have enough power, to smoothly plain down the hardwood that I have. It probably has something to do with the fact that it has 2 blades instead of 3. Plan to step up to a Rigid, 3 blade planer. Had one before, and it was great.

Works better then I expected. Been using it on rough cut red oak and have had no problems.

First time I have used a thickness planer. Instructions were very simple and it works better than I expected

This is a good working planer. A great value for the price. Worked great right out of the box, no adjustments needed. I have only used for small stuff so far but a couple different types of wood. Mainly soft stuff and a piece of Purple Heart.

Limited use so far, but seems to be very powerful and intuitive to use. Happy with the price point.

The planer does a great job, but I wish the thickness indicator was on top for a more convenient and accurate view.

Great Bench Planer and easy to use right out of the box, all you have to do to use it is attach the dust port for the vacuum and your ready to go, this is saving us lots of time. Great buy!

This planer was easy to assemble. The motor seems powerful enougn for most materials and leaves a nice finish. This is a great addition to my hobby workshop.

Working as it should, had to make minor adjustments to reduce snipe.

The Delta planer performed beyond my expectation. Granted, I’m not doing construction grade heavy-duty planing, but it works easily and efficiently. I’m very pleased!

Very pleased with the product but not so much with Delta’s customer service! Unit arrived with missing parts. When I contacted Delta with the model and serial number they refused to help me unless I produced copies of my online order and receipts. Because the table I ordered for the unit did not fit my model. It required the boring of additional holes and the purchase of additional hardware to mount the unit along with additional hardware to replace what was missing in the shipment. I doubt very highly that I will purchase any more equipment from them! Their website doesn’t even allow me to register my product with them. I suppose I’ll have to call them to register the product!

Works well hard to tell how much your shaving per pass. Great entry level planer.
Quinton Watsica (verified owner) –
Arrived on time and after the 2 minutes of assembly worked great. For a bench unit, works as expected and does a great job.
Kariane Stark (verified owner) –
Easy assembly and was up and running in less than fifteen minutes. Delta is one of the better planers.
Justen Ferry (verified owner) –
I had to send the first one back because after unpacking the unit and firing it up, the belt gaurd went flying. And I couldn’t get it to work. I had to take it back to Home Depot. I ordered another one and the second one stayed in place. Sooo cold in Altoona PA I haven’t worked with it much yet.

I purchased this planer originally just for cleaning up rough lumber I get locally for free. However, I love it so much I have incorporated into nearly all of my builds. I never realized what i was missing not having a planer. I used to build everything around the dimensions of the lumber, now I can make the lumber what I want it to be! The size and price were my biggest factors for purchasing the Delta. Minor assembly was really fast and easy, I was using it in no time. I recommend using dust collection as planing creates a lot of mess. I definitely recommend the Delta planer and look forward to trying other tools of the same brand.
