Remember when you needed to smooth out those joists: plane away chips, splinters and misshaped edges with the WEN 6 Amp 3-1/4 in. Electric Hand Planer. Perfect for fixing stubborn doors and reshaping post edges. This power planer’s 6 Amp motor delivers over 34,000 cuts per minute to your work piece, slicing away any irregularities until the surface of your boards are aligned and smooth. With a cutting width of 3-1/4 in. and a maximum cutting depth of 1/8 in. you’ll have the perfect companion for preparing reclaimed wood back into perfectly useable boards. The 16 positive stops increase in increments of 1/128 in. anywhere from 0 all the way up to 1/8 in. The base plate shoe even includes a V-shaped groove for easily flattening sharp post corners. Aside from the power planer, this package also includes a dust bag, a rabbeting guide, a kickstand and a parallel fence bracket. The rabbeting guide adjusts anywhere from 0 to 7/10 in. to allow for rabbets in a variety of sizes. The parallel fence provides an accurate and straight cut by making sure your strokes are directly parallel to the edge of the wood (a must have for planning door edges, wood trim and boards). The kickstand protects both the blade and the work piece in between uses by keeping the blade elevated and out of contact from the surface of your project. Finally, the dust bag attaches to either side and collects all of your loose shavings to keep your work space clean and sawdust free.

Worked like cutting butter. See if it stands the test of time.

Does a good job cutting but is a little on the bulky side. Definitely worth the cost

Received faster than I expected. opened box, plugged in and started using. very impressed with cut. had been using a old sears (20+ years old) liked the ability to change direction of chip exhaust. probably will never use the dust bag since will be used outside. hope it holds up rest of my life. would definitely buy again for the price

Worked good right out of the box. I was able to connect my shop vac to catch the shavings.

This planer is easy to use. I only wish that it came with an attachment for my shop vac. I have tried to find one, but no luck. Have to change the contents of the bag frequently.

Very good planer for the price point. Easily handled leveling some high spots on boards for a deck I’m building. Only downside is the bag gets filled quickly so you have to stop and empty it often. I guess you can remove the bag altogether or hook it up to a vacuum system if you have one.

I am a newbie to planers but this thing impressed me quite a bit. I have nothing else to compare it to in terms of electric planers but I thought it was pretty good.

I bought this planer so I could install some new interior doors for my house. It is so easy to use and I just set the depth and it does all the work. Great product for a great price !!

Nice product and cheaper I love it!

Cannot attest to durability since I’ve only used twice but product is well built and worked flawlessly. I’m happy I didn’t spend $100+ for another well known brand.

This planner is a great tool to add to the wood shop

I had a few doors to plane down and this worked great. Got it because I have only occasional need of a planer and the price was right. Good value.
Marcelle Jacobi (verified owner) –
This planer is excellent for the bigger jobs and is very easy to set the depth and easy to use I’ve used many times since I bought it

Planes wide are very effectively. A lower cost option which works as well as units twice the price.
