A corded version can be put into a jig and give you a mini jointer.
Personally, a power hand planer is a great tool. None of the cordless are very good though.
The makita is not bad for a corded hand planer, but the Bosch is exceptional.
Just make sure you get the good Bosch corded hand planer. The PL1632 is HORRIBLE!!! The PL2632 is god tier.
It's smooth, and uses a small carbide blade that can be reversed when dull, and easily replaced. I just bought a lifetime supply for $30 (four extra blades, 8 new sides).
Hopefully one day someone makes a better cordless model. I've tried every one, I've ever heard of, and they either bog down, or burn out really quickly. Planers take a lot of power to function without bogging down. So until that day comes, I'll be using the 2632.

Worked great for that.
I wish I had bought one sooner... My old... OLLLLD Red Makita planer was doing the job, but I had to do a lot of sanding afterwards 😅. The Bosch is so crisp and clean.

Why is the 2632 so much better than the 1632? They have the same motor and look similar. 2632 can use two blades though?
The Bosch is better than Makita?
Edit: Ordered a 2632.
