Pros & Cons
Pros
The tool actually feels like it has more power than my corded * handheld planer.
This cordless planer is great. It is lightweight and easy to use. This thing is powerfully precise too.
I'm just a weekend * - but all weekend pikers have doors/doorframes that get out of whack with humidity and foundation shifts. The only complaint is that it bogs down pretty quickly on denser wood such as oak.
Highlights
Quality
Paired with the festool dust bag or vacuum hose it works like a charm.
Makita quality all the way , comes with a vac port for mess free use too!
This cordless works much better for sure.
Competitiveness
If you are already team makita 18v cordless this is a great planer to add to the collection.
Very good tool great power using it with 5year old batteries

Had a lot of doors that were jamming shut at the top or werent closing because they were painted too thick for the frame or were installed in winter and expanded with humidity in the summer

I have not tried it yet for planing on greater than one width of the tool

When i unboxed the planer the my batteries wouldn’t slide into the tool so i thought that they may have upgraded the batteries
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
After some research i learned that it used the same batteries so i did some comparing and realized that the planer had a metal tab that was sticking up that prevented the battery from sliding in

Otherwise there are many corded options out there that work great

Id only improve the nonstandard dust port or provide an adapter
