Grizzly 8-in W 20 -Amp Benchtop Planer

Would purchase again!

Great machine for my small shop. The only issue is using the dust collection hose during planing. The hose gets in the way of boards entering the planer. The fix I found was a 45degree elbow fixed to the dust hood. This IS NOT a big deal and I am very pleased with my purchase.

Nice space saver, but has limitations

I bought this unit in 2023. Space was a limiting factor in my garage shop and I was very interested in combining these two important tools.

Newly purchased. First impression. Don't judge this little dynamo by it's size. It flawlessly jointed & planed 225 Bf of rough dry Douglas Fir 1X6-8'ers in just a few hours.

Considering the price, the space allotted versus conventional individual machines, & functionality, this product gets a 5 star.

Disappointed
