I don’t like the exhaust. It also has only one direction the chips go out so you can only be on one side.

Worked great for removing high areas on wood sub-straight. Prep work completed in just a few minutes. Need to ensure all nail or screw heads are sunken below the planing surface.

Great product. I used it to plane a door I had that was a touch too wide and it worked flawlessly. Honestly, it’s hard to beat Makita for quality.

The planer was easy to handle and my first task with it was excellent.

Nice small planner. great hard case to protect and store.

I added a sawdust bag to it which I would recommend doing. The planer itself meets the high expectations I get from Makita equipment.

We had some hard maple butcher block counter tops to dress up after a cut edge. It worked very good and left a factory looking edge.

The machine works fantastic. Just wish it had a better warranty

I tried another brand but received two faulty units, so then I purchased this Makita. I have other Makita tools and figured this would also be a high quality unit. I’ve not been disappointed. It’s light, easy to hold and cuts well, although it takes a bit of practice to get a smooth, even surface throughout the stroke of the planer.The only thing I wish this had that the other brand did is the ability to switch the sides of the exit stream of chips. That’s very handy when working along a wall and you don’t have the option to go from the opposite direction. That said, this is a nice, reliable unit with enough power for my needs.

I purchased the planer to shave the width of the old 2X4’s in an old house I am remodeling. The planer worked great and handled the task.

Bought it to perfectly level the joists of a 14’x14’ 12” o.c. deck. Since I was going with Deckorators composite decking, I did not want any waving. This thing went through the joists w/o effort at the different settings I was trying.
