Craftsman Professional 13 in. Bench Top Planer —

I've been using this planer for over a month and I'm very happy with it. Have probably planned 500 board feet of white oak and it has worked flawlessly. At first I was getting about two inches of snipe on the feed side but once I started locking the cutter heads that disappeared; also I make sure to stay well under 1/16 of an in on every pass. I haven't really notice any dust, its connected to my dust collector and everything stays pretty clean. I would definitely buy it again, especially when they have it on sale for under $400.
