Title: compact and reliable for a fair price
Review: I have limited shop space so I chose this benchtop jointer. I typically make small table tops, raised panel doors, and drawer fronts with pine and maple. For these projects, this jointer has served me well. The machine is easy to set-up and operate, and light and compact so that I can store it when I need workbench space for other tools. If I had a bigger shop, I probably would have purchased a stationary jointer since I hate moving tools around. But in reality, this jointer has all the power and capacity that my projects require and it is half the price of the cheapest stationary jointers. If budget and space are not limited, then get the stationary jointer. Otherwise, I think most hobbiests would be satisfied with this jointer.
