Review: Quality product - Well built product and works fine
Review: Light weight and an awesome planer - This planer does a great job! I recently purchased 4 ruff hewned 8x8x8 pine timbers and hand planed them with this product. It is light weight, easy to adjust the cutting depth, and very easy to use. It's easy to change/replace the blades (2) and it's everything that I needed to do the job. I didn't like the bag but didn't really need as I did the planning outside. All in all...it's a very good product for the cost and it comes with a hard carrying case.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light weight and an awesome planer

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my new favorite tools! Not as LOUD as I feared.
*by J***L on November 18, 2023*

This tool is nice and stable. The cuts are gorgeous. The motor can be heard over the noise from my shop vac, but not oppressively so (unlike some others). Comes with a bag, a guide, a tool for changing the blades, a big case ... did not come with the adapters that I needed for connecting it to my vac, but I knew that in advance. I have only planed a couple pine boards with it, but - wow! So much easier than my jack plane .... like, worlds apart. When i hooked this planer up to my shop vac, not only was the Bosch less noisy than I was expecting, it was incredibly clean as well. Definitely one of my new favorite tools. I would still recommend keeping a jack plane around, for finishing the fine details, anyways. At least, for the time being. That may change. I am very glad that I spent the money on this tool, and this specific brand.
