Negative Positive
Title: Maintence is important
Review: I spent a lot of time researching different planers and decided to spend the extra money on the DW735 because of the third blade. Some of the reviews suggest that the blades are not of good quality and are expensive to replace. I would agree that they are expensive to replace, however I have run a lot more rough sawn hardwood (hickory and oak) then I expected. Also, ran some poplar with great results. The biggest error in planing is to take too much wood off on each pass. Other advantages are the blades are easy to change, fan assisted chip ejection chute and speed setting for cpi. Recommendations would be to purchase the chip collection accessory and the folding tables, wax the bottom of the planer (I use a balled up piece of wax paper) and clean the rollers. I have had my planer for 6 months now and still have not had problems and would purchase this planer again.
