Selected User Reviews For Grizzly Industrial G0505 - 12-1/2" 2 HP Benchtop Planer
IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO BUILD THIS PLANER, DON'T BUY IT. After two years of occasional, light use, the motor case is cracking and it smells worse than ever after only two years of occasional, light use. It cannot hold a dimension, is not parallel from left to right, and cannot properly expel shavings into the optional dust hood. After I purchased it, I complained to Grizzly about the build quality, and wanted to return it. They did not take action. There is a problem with the dust hood it does not fit correctly, hangs in path of wood, and the seals are dessicated and falling Despite what was said, the perimeter was never sealed at It took them another week to send me a replacement seal with the same problem, and a pathetic excuse for a seal that didn't even match the dimensions of the first. It didn't work right out of the box and I had to buy something to make it work. I cannot accept 2 years from a machine that costs several hundred dollars!.
A FIRST BOARD I designed had a few lines that I thought were neat. I had to drill holes in the chip deflector to make it fit, so I had to try again with a different chip deflector. IF YOU HAVE a dust collector hood, I'd like that instead of the entire hood. I think this is the last blizzard I've seen so far. Please type P.
We are past our warranty period, of course. That's a lot of weight in my garage that I now have to deal with.
I love this little machine. It works well in the small wood shop I have.
My husband loves it and I will love the ones I have This wonderful item is enjoyed by my husband as well as the new shelves I will soon own created from the wood he is preparing.
The products from Grizzly are outstanding, and their tools are also quality.
This is exactly what I was looking for.
I like it very much I really like the way it works!.
