Easy to use. best in my review

My first project was a fireplace box for an electric fireplace. I had to join the 8” boards. The biscuit joiner worked just right.

Pros
  • Saves money by allowing woodworkers to create their own joints rather than buying pre-made ones
Cons
  • The tool is not compatible with all biscuit sizes

You get what you pay for; okay for simple hobby work

I purchased this for one project. I rarely do biscuit jointing, so i didn't want to spring for a Dewalt or Milwaukee. However, as with most tools, you get what you pay for. The guide is out of square and not fixable. It's not terrible, but at about 1/16th to 1/32nd of an inch from left to right, it's enough to cause the joints to not be flush. It's pretty annoying for this project, causing me to do far more sanding than I would if I had just used dowels (or no joint reinforcement at all).On the

Pros
  • Biscuit & Plate Joiners
Cons
  • The plastic gears are not durable and wear out easily

Great value. Works with practice

It will do the job. However I had to clamp it on to keep strait cuts.It is just not a precision machine. If I needed it for day to day production i would spend the more on name brand. My advise is to practice on scrap several times to get it diled in.

Pros
  • A bit under powered and the adjustments are a bit sloppy but I didn't pay that much to expect more
Cons
  • The fence is not stable and can cause inaccurate cuts

Biscuits on the cheap

For virtually half the price of any big brand biscuit joiner, this thing does an excellent job. The blade cuts smooth and consistent. The adjustments are simple and the provided biscuits work well. The only real knock on the tool is that it is pretty loud. If you don’t want to spend $160+ on a DeWalt or other name brand, this serves its purpose if you are doing DIY or only need it once and a while.

Pros
  • Did the job I needed. This is a tool that sees little use, so why pay more to sit in a case?
Cons
  • The handle grip is uncomfortable to hold for long periods

Easy to use: my feedback

I am brand new at woodworking and this tool has been very user friendly. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a biscuit joiner.

Pros
  • ♕ PRE-SET BISCUIT SIZES:For Convenient Use, The Biscuit Joiner Features Pre-Set Stops For The Most Common Biscuit Sizes – 0, 10, And 20. There’s Also An ‘M’ Setting, Which Puts The Tool In Manual Mode To Allow You To Cut To Custom Depths.
Cons
  • The blade guard obstructs the view of the cut line

Quality control in packaging is lacking.

Didn't receive any Biscuits with my order as described in the listing. The Joiner works great but I lost a couple of hours working time to find the biscuits locally that I thought was to be included.

Pros
  • Smooth and consistent cuts make for seamless joinery in any application
Cons
  • The rail system is not smooth and can cause jerky movement

The Fence is cocked

The removable fence sits crooked on the base of the tool. It may not look like much from the picture, but it would never cut plumb or square, rendering the tool useless. Currently requesting a replacement, will come back and update the review if the replacement has better quality control.

Pros
  • Works as expected it to.
Cons
  • The tool overheats quickly, leading to frequent breakdowns

Gluing boards is downright easy now!

My dad had one of these for years, I always liked dowel pins. Until now, this saves time and money. Sturdy tool, built well.

Pros
  • Good Product
Cons
  • The product is too heavy to carry around during work

Great value for the price!

I started using the tool to assemble countertops with 2x6's and this work's great. However, I would highly recommend purchasing a better blade. The factory blade leaves a lot of tear-out in the slots and requires extra time to clean up before moving on. Now I look for reasons to use it!It is easy to use, but if you haven't used one before, watch a YouTube video and practice on scrap wood and play with the different settings.

  • ♕ SPECIFICATION:Blade Diameter: 4",Cutting Speed: 11,000rpm,Groove Width: 5/32 Inches,Amps: 8.5A,Weight: 7.6lbs,Dimensions:17" X 14" X 5" inches.

Easy to use!: my feedback

Husband bought this for me to join pieces of wood while building my birdhouses . I thought I might have difficulty handling it as I am 70 and have arthritis in my hands. It is not a problem!

Pros
  • Easy to use and made joining boards simple.
Cons
  • depending on the area you are connecting, it is hard to keep it from moving

Husband loves this product.

Really glad we choose this product. We bought several of them for friends and family because they're good quality. Reasonable price and it just does what it says. The case is heavy and solid. The machine works as advertised.

Pros
  • Creates precision joints that are strong and long-lasting
Cons
  • The blade comes loose frequently during use
