Title: Choose Lamello
Product review: I had the old style porter cable plate jointer and a friend of mine bought a new 557 and I was going to buy a 557 until I used his. The problems with the 557 is the open fence area makes it difficult to bisquit narrow with pieces. I had to use a plywood scrap under the fence to use on narrow pieces.My friends 557 has end play on the on the blade and this makes for sloppy bisquit slots. My friend also said that he has a difficult time keeping the slots all the same height from the top of the fence down to the slot. Over all I was not impressed. I sent and e-mail to Porter Cable but they didn't respond. I bought a Lamello Classic 2. I love it.
