Made in china now but quality seems good. Works ok out of box, works great after a little tuning. A very good value.

Good general duty plane. Fits right in with my amature level shop and equipment.Came as described, well packaged and sharp. A good value.

I like the solid construction. Just received the plane and being a novice at rabbet planes I’m still learning.

Perfect one of the best planes to have

I use Stanley products almost exclusively in my school shop and can only find them on line. I wish you had more Stanley products in your retail stores.

Great plane! It gets right into the corners as you’d expect.

Made in China. Needs a lot of work to preform correctly.

A great addition to my tools. It’s not fancy it just works

Works great, comes sharp!

This plane works. The iron sharpened up razor sharp on an oilstone. The knicker works properly on cross-grained cuts. If used properly, it left me a clean and square rabbet. I took off a star for a few minor things. The paint is not great, the hole for the guide bar was bit cleaned out properly when they cut the threads, and there is a very minimal outward bow at the tip of the fence, but it does not affect performance. If you are having trouble finding a complete vintage plane like i was, i would recommend this one. This is much easier to set up than my stanley 45, and niyw i can use the 45 for other tasks.

It worked as expected and made the job a lot easier

Iron is of the low quality Stanley produces modernly. Rest isn’t much different to older Stanley’s. So, it’s ok if one can figure a way to replace the iron.

Good tool, sharp iron out of the box

This plane is a “contractor grade” plane. The difference between this plane and the $200 Stanley Sweetheart plane is in the “finishing and tuning.” In practical terms that means that this plane is pretty rough. I spent hours and hours over two days with sandpaper on a granite surface plate to get the sole flat, true and smooth. Then I had to flatten the underside of the cap iron the same way. Then I’ll need to smooth and flatten the sides of the plane while keeping them 90 degrees to the sole. Finally I’ll sharpen and hone the blade. Once that’s done, it will be every bit as good as the Sweetheart plane. I’ll have close to 15 hours of labor in it. This can be a great plane, just understand that it’s not ready to go right out of the box. It takes a LOT of work to make it right.

Plane came as expected. The iron took little time to sharpen. The sole of the plane did take a while to flatten. Overall, it was a good value for the price paid.

Plane works. Only took half an hour to set up.

Right out of the box it took minimal tuning and cuts like a dream.

The blade is pretty sharp out of the box and after minimal honing and flattening you can make some nice shavings. Tuning this plane took some work though. I had to spend about twenty minutes flattening the sole and about ten on each side. Not bad. The fence doesn’t ride perfectly square but with some work I fixed that problem. I didn’t have any issues with the spur but the screw could be a little easier to deal with. The weight is good and it feels comfortable in my hand. Bottom line, after some tuning this plane is a solid tool. I’ll still keep my eyes out for a vintage one that I can restore but until that time, I have enjoyed using it.

Sturdy and ready to go out of the box, after a wipe down. I did hit the blade with a strop, but it didn’t really need it. There are great videos out there to help get the most out of this plane

After a lot of clean up on the rabbet plane, it seems to work ok. I had to sand down the sole and the sides since they were not smooth and even. The fence is flimsy. The cutters are thick and dig into the wood. I have stopped using the cutters. After sharpening the blade it works ok.
