Bought last week to replace a cheap one whose blades shattered as the bolts would not tighten and they should nearly blinded me.. Decided to buy the best and it did not disappoint me. Money well spent. Accurate smooth finish not much vibration and the shavings collect in the bag provided. Top planer for a DIY man or professional.

I purchased this planer, having always bought Makita tools and viewing it to be one of their more capable planers. Having taken delivery of the planer I found it to have mostly good build quality, as I would expect at this price point from Makita, however that is where the positives stopped. The blade setting mechanism is absolutely hopeless. Using a cheap, poor quality plastic gauge you are supposed to set the blade height and then attach this to the cutter block with a clamping plate. Having tried and tried with this for over 5 hours i was still not able to get the blades to be set level with the outfeed side of the the planer sole.The best I could achieve was a difference of over 1mm in blade height from each side of the planer sole. This was not repeatable using ... MoreI purchased this planer, having always bought Makita tools and viewing it to be one of their more capable planers.

Although this is common on power planers such as this, I have never seen a planer with this much blade overhang. This serves to create great gouges in your work when planing if the sole of the planer is even slightly off level.In the end I gave up wasting my time and contacted Axminster who authorised a return and a full refund. Full credit to Axminster for great service!

Makita Planer KP0810 - I've really enjoyed using this planer for it's ample power, balance and comfort. Especially useful is the selection of left/right ejection. I have only pros & no cons, would purchase it again and am confident in recommending it to others. To those dismayed by the lack of a storage case, I agree. Quality tools deserve to be protected and with that, I'll share my solution. After trying several different "toolboxes" from several sources, I've found the 16 inch WM Hyper Tough box to work well. It's snug, but everything does fit. (Note: Rotate blades and fold the planer kickstand.) This box also features two storage pockets in the lid, perfect for the small accessories such as blade wrench, gauge and spare blades. Additionally useful are these ... MoreMakita Planer KP0810 - I've really enjoyed using this planer for it's ample power, balance and comfort.

Aside from that, it's indispensable in controlling the direction of shavings. These two accessories will also fit in the same storage box. Happy planing!

Good quality build. It does leave edges on a wide surface , will need to finish with a std. hand plane. Carbide blades are fragile! But it will be good for my purpose.
I bought this Plainer to do a specific job, it was a big ask but made light work of it. Glad I spent the extra money. Definitely the tradesman's choice.
This is the best planer in it's class. We are building an Oak log lodge style home 4400 Sq. Ft. and have had to plane all walls inside and out to be ready for stain. We have gone through at least 6 different competing brands of planers including Bosch. We have now settled in to utilizing 2 of these Makitas. After extremely heavy use they have outlasted the others without fail and are still going strong. The blade are easy to change, and when bought in bulk are inexpensive and easy to change. This means the tool goes right back to work quickly for minimum downtime. I have had to replace the brushes in one of them so far, but considering what we are doing with them I am ok with that. That is easy too.
I am a hand-tool kind of guy. By that I mean powerless, good ol' hand tools. I have had my grandfather's hand planes for years and sharpen them by hand with waterstones. I always scoffed at power planers.Well, then came the need to take years of paint off two 46' wood sailboat masts. I was going to use a belt sander, but those make a mess and are very invasive. (chew up the wood a lot). I decided to try a power planer set at low depth.There were really three options available- Bosch, Ryobi, and Makita. Ryobi was out at the beginning because of their usual lack of quality. The Bosch I had read great things about and it was cheaper than the Makita. The reason I went with the Makita was twofold:(1) The foot on the Makita is very thick machined aluminum, whereas ... MoreI am a hand-tool kind of guy. By that I mean powerless, good ol' hand tools.

Ryobi was out at the beginning because of their usual lack of quality. The Bosch I had read great things about and it was cheaper than the Makita. The reason I went with the Makita was twofold:(1) The foot on the Makita is very thick machined aluminum, whereas the Bosch is stamped steel and did not look too precision. The Makita looked like a precision tool!(2) The adjustment knob. This was the main reason. They both had a knob that clicked at each stop. The Bosch, however, was so poorly marked that I couldn't tell if I was on 1/64 or 1/32nd. There was no real pointer. You just kind of aimed the clicker up the center. The Makita had very clearly marked white recessed lines at 1/256th intervals. That is precision! You could very easily see and feel (solid click for each stop) where you were setting it. It also has a zero setting to park the blade, which I believe the Bosch also had.The real difference between hand planers is not how MUCH they can take off at a time, but rather how LITTLE. If you need precision then get the Makita. You can shave tiny paper-thin strips off in each pass or go up to 5/32 if you need to hog something out quickly.For the sailboat mast I was able to plane the paint off in about 15 minutes. It was insane. BZZZZZZZZIP four times down each side and it was clean except the rounded edges which I will hit with a sander. I am so glad I did not get the belt sander for this job!!!I am going to start using this for other projects although I am still sort of a purist when it comes to planing. If I were hanging a door, however, I must say I would probably use this now instead of a hand plane. For furniture and for my wood surfboard building I will stick with manual hand planes. Anyway, this was WELL worth the money I spent just in the time it saved me on this project, and I was amazed that after planing all four sides of a 46' sailboat mast it was still cutting a clean smooth path. Sweet!
Planes well but could be easier to use. The height adjustment knob spins around and is hard to calibrate. The knob also being a handle is less than ideal. Also, there should be a bag attachment to catch the chips ejected. A vacuum hose is annoying to work with and a bag seems like it should be easy enough to add. It otherwise planes well, is relatively easy to maneuver and apply for an even plane. I would like to see some markings on the top case for visualizing where the blade is. This would help for maneuvering. It’s easy enough to change the blades and access the motor and brushes, which is convenient.
Up until today, this has been a good tool. I've used it on just a few projects since getting it 8 months ago. No wood has ever been planed with this tool. I use it to shave styrofoam, a soft medium compared to the wood it was designed to plane. Started making a noise then popped, sending shards of belt all over and breaking the plastic belt cover. Still under warranty, but to invest more to ship a tool they claim is "professional quality, should expect years of service" is maddening.
I am very happy with this planer, it has enough power to plane oak planks that I milled last year; it gets the job done. My only complaint so far is that it does not zero out, the blade does not retract all the way, so I am always cutting. This 7.5 amp model was not available in the store. When delivered the box looked like it was through a war and the planer and parts were rattling around inside the box, and there was no manual (its available on the internet). It came with a guide, but I still haven't figured out what it is supposed to do. I have to wonder if the planer was knocked out of alignment when shipped, the box had definitely been opened. there's no directions on how to calibrate the depth gauge. Just a poor presentation, shame on someone.
