WEN 6528 3.8-Amp Electric Hand Planer, 2-3/8-Inch

This is a great little tool for the price. Simple and easy to use and very effective in removing wood quickly. It kicks out a lot of very fine shavings so an after market containment system would be a useful addition. I also have a Wen pneumatic roofing nailer and I really like that as well. I put over 3,000 nails through it no problem. For the planer, integrating some sort of grip on the front end would be useful. You can use the depth adjustment knob but it’s not designed for that and not comfortable. Overall, definitely worth it and for the cost, it pays for itself after just a few uses. Definitely beats a manual hand planer or sander.

Perfect size and weight. Works beautifully. Price is right too.

Great tool. Worked perfect. Easy to use. I just can't find the right sized vacuum tube/attachment to fit the dust collector hole. My shop vac hose is too big and too small. My house vac didn't fit either. I even purchased the "WEN 5-Step Modular Dust Hose Reducer and Adapter Set (DCA014)" and none of those fit just right. Seems like that should be universal size 1.25" outside diameter.

Five stars for the value factor of this planer. I needed to trim down a few doors that were sticking in our second home, and didn't want to spend a ton of money for this one project. For under 30 bucks I ordered this one based on the pretty good reviews. It arrived quickly and I was immediately impressed with eth build quality at that price point. The size and relative light weight of this planer made it perfect for this project. Plenty of power and sharp blades out of the box made the job easy. Too easy on one door as I took off a bit more than needed, but that was all my fault. Now I'm looking for other jobs that need doing so I can break this planer out again. It certainly is not a high end woodworking tool, but for simple quick and dirty jobs like this it is perfect and won't break the bank.

Our family has been using Wen products for years. They're sturdy, well-built, function exactly as expected and have an OUTSTANDING user manual that is well written, easy to understand and amply illustrated. (The big guys could take notice - it's so much easier to follow than the tiny phone fonts.) This planer has been amazing - lightly removed the irregularities from a door that got caught in a flood. Now we can decide whether to refinish or cover with a kickplate.

Wasn't sure about this at first, but after using it I was happy with the performance. Easy to use.

Great Value , the tool works well and does exactly what is supposed to, Very easy to use right out of the box. Cuts smooth and quick and is super easy to adjust the depth of the cut. The ability to attach a shop vac to the side to collect the saw dust is a convenient and quality feature

Cheap but effective. I use it for simple things like doors and it runs and cuts. Not perfect but for basic needs at the price can't beat it.

Was a great price and works great

Travail bien

The biggest problem, I don't fond a dust bag for it. try it 3 time and non of them a right size connection to the planer. One order returned, the second order destroyed.

I purchased this electric planner to make old door fit into existing frames. The planner needs some fine tuning which unfortunately the instructions do not instruct you on how to tune it. As others in the reviewd have pointed out, there are youtube tutorials on how to do this. It requires some minor filing and adjustment and then you will be good to go. Once its tuned, I found the planner cuts straight and accurately. I wish it came with a bag attachment as the filings go everywhere. These can be bought seperately but it would have been nice to have included. Otherwise, this is a great tool for the price point.
