First Impressions

"Nice machine ."

I spent almost no time setting the Benchtop Planer up. It all went together well. So far, it's been a really nice Benchtop Planer. Can't complain for the price I paid. Well made and works great.

Shop Fox W1742 Final Thoughts

"Hands down."

This Benchtop Planer does the job as intended. I'm in shock how much quieter is it as well. I absolutely love this thing. I was torn between this and a Dewalt 735X. Everything I expected and more.
