I bought this machine a month ago and am very satisfied with it. It planed accurately right out of the box.
I had to add a section to the stand to bring it to waist height. And by the way it makes a big mess to clean up.
That's ok, I don't have a big vacuum to hook to it. I heard many times about cheaper brands breaking down.
My Neighbor had a cheap one, it broke, then bought a VEVOR and told me to get one. That was the best advice
I ever had.
