The planer is well made, powerful and fast. The micro depth adjustment is easier to use than my last planer. The exhaust direction switch is a nice touch too.

The Milwaukee M18 Planar is an awesome tool. I have been skimming the paint off of old redwood fence boards and this planar saved the day. I had tried using a sander, even with 40 grit, but that took way too long. The planar made quick work of taking the paint layer off. Now I can reuse the boards to build a shed. One very important note; it is necessary to have a vacuum system to collect the shavings. Milwaukee has a great vacuum system that costs about $500. I opted instead to use a shop vac that I already had and bought an adapter to fit into the Milwaukee planar exhaust. Skimming about twelve 8 to 9 ft boards almost filled the large shop vac. One more note, I am hooked on the Milwaukee M18 tools; I now have the planar, circular saw, sander, blower and Sawzall. Of course the Sawzall was the first tool that I bought and I’ve used it for so many jobs. Oh yes, and now I have five M18 batteries and two chargers. The blower and the planar especially use a lot of juice, so for big jobs, I need to rotate batteries pretty frequently. With this many tools, I definitely recommend two chargers and 4 or 5 batteries. I’m sold on Milwaukee products. So great to no longer be needing to get out extension cords for my tools.

This is a great tool, easy to control and it has plenty of power. I used it to correct warpage in a 2×10 rough-in door frame. I removed up to a quarter inch from vertical portions of the face of the 2×10 in multiple passes. It throws shavings all over the place, so I’d advise hooking up a vacuum to the discharge tube. It has a little spring loaded foot that automatically drops down to hold the rear of the tool above the surface to protect the blade when you set it down. The depth control is very positive and marked in increments of 1/256 of an inch. I’m not sure how you could flatten the face of an installed 2×10 with any other tool.

Works great but a little heavy

Awesome planer, very powerful and solid. My only complaint is that it does not include a bag to capture the wood shavings. They basically spray 3-5 feet out the side.

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.

So nice not to have to be worrying about a electrical source (120V). Easy to use and very versatile. A game changer at the work site not having to fight for a power source.

Amazing like everything else in this line. The power for being a battery powered tool is hands down amazing.

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.

I normally give Milwaukee tools a 5 star rating, and this one came close. They really need to include a dust collection bag with these. Since I need to look for and purchase one, 1 star subtracted.
