Scheppach makes two categories of stuff: something very not good, or something very good. :-) This particular machine is not in those two categories, but on its own: DeWalt, you are in a trouble!
I was very skeptical, because a good planer machine is not something you just get and happy. They are all having good and bad things. But hey. Look at my photos. First one is how Oak looks like before. Other two what came out of the machine! Yes, it shines reflections! It was NOT sanded at all. The border of this board is so sharp that you can cut yourself. This machine saved me lots of money buying already planned boards. Instead I can make now my own boards and with much better quality than in a shop.
Now some pros/cons. So cons:
- Thickness scale is a glued metallic sticker, but the arrow pointing to it is not adjustable. Mine is off by one millimeter. Well, you can easily fix it: remove the sticker, zero your knife to where it is, and glue a new one. For example, a real short metallic ruler with a contact glue will do. Done.
- The table is... well, not the greatest. People removing it completely, replacing it with a plywood and a steel plate on top. But you can still live with it just fine.
That's all. Cons? Everything else:
- You won't find a machine with DeWalt output quality but a thrice cheaper than DeWalt! You will love it.
- Since it is cheap, you can also modify it to your needs and don't afraid that you had screwed something special. 🤣
- People say (YouTube) they working with it hard, long, often and still don't need to replace motor contacts etc.
- It is made quite solid.
Would I buy it again? Oh absolutely! So what are you waiting for? Get it, while it is hot! 🙂
