Power is adequate for fresh cut oak rough planks. I received it today and am learning how to use it. Yes, this quickly filled, but it was better than nothing. I'm building a farm table out of reclaimed lumber. This would definitely be worth the price.

The truth is that the Festool HL 850 E was the Festool Planers that we rated at the top. Even so, there were a few other really premium quality Festool Planers we wanted to show you here that barely fell short.

Festool is yet another leading manufacturer of Planers. They produce the tool that is next on our list. Festool's Electric Hand Planers are no exception. I was ready to try out the model 574690 and I was not disappointed!

This Electric Hand Planer is just $680.00. That is a fantastic deal for a premium Planer like the 574690 by Festool. If you uncertain about our number one choice, I'd look into the Festool 574690 next. It's a high quality tool at a good price.

Power is adequate for fresh cut oak rough planks. It makes mountains of wood shavings on the smallest projects! It runs smooth and the cutters are very sharp. I wish the did include a collection bag, that's one big con. This would definitely be worth the price.
