Great so far, I made a simple chain tensioner, adjusting it is much smother.

As advertised

Not knowing this “brand”, I was reluctant to purchase. It had what I wanted with the helical cutter head and the price was 2- 3 hundred bucks less than the Oliver I was looking at. Even with one speed(which is all I’ve ever used) and no digital stuff, it looked good enough to try. The first board I sent through came out as smooth as silk. I’ve had no snipe at times and considerable snipe at others. On boards 5-6 wide, I get at .01” difference in thickness from side to side. I don’t really know how to fix that. My only other thing is that while it sounds quieter than than my old delta lunch box, on the decibel meter it reads about 100 - about 10 db louder.
All in all, I’m happy with this planer. 5* s from me!

Hi,Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. We're so happy to hear that our FB131H planer has met your expectations and is working well for you. As for the slight snipe and difference in thickness, we recommend adjusting the infeed and outfeed tables to help minimize those issues. And regarding the noise level, we apologize if it seems louder than your previous planer. We're always working to improve our products and appreciate your feedback. Thank you for choosing FindBuyTool and for giving us 5 stars! Happy planning!

Great value and performance. Minor improvements possible.

I appreciate they held my order for an updated model. The new cut gauge is helpful! Planing is fast and very smooth - great finish results in softwood and hardwood so far. Solid build and easy to use. I do think they should add a chain tensioner to the height adjustment as it binds a little due to the horizontal gain orientation - nothing major - just an annoyance.

Considering the helical cutting performance and quality results, I would recommend this to anyone interested. Just be patient in the shipping.

Thank you for your review of our planer! We're glad to hear that you have had a positive experience with our product and appreciate your feedback. We will definitely take your suggestion for a chain tensioner into consideration for future improvements. Thank you for choosing our product and happy planing!

A GREAT product

very easy to set up and run. My first test was to plane all 4 sides of 6 short 2x4 pieces that I used to make shelf braces. The result was Perfect in terms of a smooth finish and that I was able to finish these in a few short minutes as opposed to how I would have done it in the past. I love this machine already!

Hi,Thank you for your kind review! We're glad to hear that you found our planer easy to set up and use.

Great planer

I had a grizzly g1021z planer with idexible head I had to downsize shop and sold it. Well when I moved god my shop back up I did heavy research and I chose this 13 planer. The best decision I made, this machine
Cuts as good as my 15 inch grizzly did. I put a wixey digital reader on it for accuracy. Very little snip and you do not need a head lock it cuts great every time better then other big machines
