Power is adequate for fresh cut oak rough planks. I received it today and am learning how to use it. Yes, this quickly filled, but it was better than nothing. I'm building a farm table out of reclaimed lumber. This would definitely be worth the price.

The fact is that the Festool HL 850 E was the Festool Planers that we graded at the top. Even so, there were a few other very premium Festool Planers worth showcasing here that barely missed first place.

Festool is yet another top manufacturer of Planers. They make the tool next up on our list. Festool's Electric Hand Planers are one of their leading products. It was great to check out the 574690. I was very happy with this tool!

The model 574690 Electric Hand Planer by Festool, at $680.00 is a particularly great Planer for the money. The Festool 574690 is truly a solid alternative. Of you are not sure about our top choice, I'd advise to choose this Planer.

Power is adequate for fresh cut oak rough planks. It makes mountains of wood shavings on the smallest projects! It runs smooth and the cutters are very sharp. I wish the did include a collection bag, that's one big con. This would definitely be worth the price.
