Totally Excellent!!!!!! A great addition to your Bosch tool line up. Works great and has plenty of power and controls to do a nice job. The best. I use this planer professionally every day. It has changed everything I install for the better. I have tried other brands, and some were O.K. , but the factor that really makes this one the King is the left or right quick change discharge. This makes a huge difference to me in ease of use in the many situations I face, and no other brand offers it. All features and functions are a delight, even the blade change. de-plane de-plane! any time you have a quick plane job, this is the tool. Several times a week I have a door that just needs a little of the top or side. you can put the bag on the planer bring it into the house plane the top or side and you are done with the job. obvisously some door have to come off the hindges, and this will still save time over cords. however, if you have a need for a lot of planeing either have several batteries on hand or use your electrical one. I bought this planer in a kit which is the best way to go. POWERHOUSE PLANER, AWESOME THIS PLANER FEELS AND RUNS AS IF IT IS PLUGGED INTO A POWER OUTLET. IT HAS LOTS OF TORQUE AND IS AS SMOOTH AS ANY CORDED PLANER I HAVE EVER USED. IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING BUYING THIS TOOL, I WOULD SUGGEST GETTING IT AND THE CORDLESS JIGSAW AS WELL. THEY HAVE REPLACE MY CORDED ONES, AND WORK BETTER THAN I HAD EVER EXPECTED. I AM A CARPENTER BY TRADE, AND HAVE USED MANY NAME BRAND TOOLS, BOTH ROUGH AND FINISH TOOLS. THIS PLANER KICKS BUTT.
