I can’t believe I’ve waited so long to buy one of these. It’s nice having a high-quality product without a cord. This is the best planer I’ve ever used.

Great tool. Love how great and smooth it works. Only complaint is that it doesnt come with a bag to catch the shavings

has lots of power and cuts aggressively. dust will blow in your eyes unless you remember to move the switch.. it makes a horrific amount of saw dust in a very short amount of time. wish you could slow it down just a bit.

I was going to buy a corded planner because I don’t use this type of tool often and couldn’t justify the added expense but after purchasing the tool only model and using existing batteries, I am extactic over the difference. A feature that is not explained in details is the quick stop of the blades and that it in fact does come with the edge guide.I couldn’t be more please with this puchase and paying more for a great quality tool. There will be no remorse in spending the bucks and having a long lasting and fun to use tool.

Everything milwaukee has been exceptional for me. The planer has been no different.

PROS: The planer comes out of the box ready to go to work! The Planer is easy and comfortable to use, and adjust.Cons: No battery or hard case included. Even a carry bag would be nice. Must use a competitor’s replacement blades.This planer holds the standard of all Milwaukee tools and built for people in the trades to use every day. ALL day.

Cordless planer does the job great. I’m always working on home remodels and great to have this cordless. Used for for different applications from planing out boards to different wood projects and the battery life is great. Has good power and worked good for anything I’ve needed it for.

Worked great right out of the box. I love how you can direct the shaving to either side of the tool depending on which side you are on.

This planer runs great and has a surprising amount of power for cordless. Runs as well as my corded Bosch. Wish it came with a chip collection bag but my corded ones bag fits it fine.

These great tolls I have it

This is an excellent planer that is surprisingly good. I actually look for imperfect pieces of scrap lumber that I can salvage through planing. I am very happy with all the Milwaukee products I have purchased.

I bought this about a month ago. Never had a hand version before. Best part is I do have a lot of M18 batteries, so I could buy the tool only and save the money from the extra batteries and charger I don’t need. It would be nice to have the case, but I have so many tools already, do I need another case? The tool seems slightly heavy at first, but after using it for a while, I forgot about the weight. Nice easy depth of cut adjustment and it goes pretty deep if you want it to. Blade replacement is fairly simple too. When working in the shop it’s nice to have the option for dust collection hose too as it can get messy real fast without it.

I got this m18 planer to skim cut the doors in my house for easier opening and closing. This powerful planer made quick work of the doors, as expected. Adjustments are very fine, and easily made by the knob. Guard is easy to adjust. Vacuum suction port is directional/selectable to whichever side you want. Highly recommended to contractors or advanced home owners for quick adjustments on woodworking and fitting. Beats hours with a sanding block/paper. Time is money.

Just thickness planed 32′ of 2×12 used the cordless planer for edge planing and it left a nice edge in just a few passes…gouged end grain by not lifting at end pass but have done that with my corded. This seemed faster. Fyi at 0. Some material still removed not much but not 0. I not going to carry this all the time as its more of a specialty tool, should be handy on doors and moldings fast and smooth and no cord. I would recommend this to someone with milwaukee tools replacing a corded planer

Great quality all the accessories are high precision pieces too. Had to find the dust bag at a different vendor as HD doesn’t have it but the chip exit on either side is a big plus. The cuts left a perfect finish.

This tool is great. It speeds up the time to finish my projects by double.
