This is a good planer and good deal.

The DW735 is another one that pops up here frequently. The DW735 has a few extra features: 1. Two speeds (for a finer finish option); 2. Slightly wider feed (13 in vs 12.5in); 3. Fan assisted dust ejection. The con obviously is the DW735 is a little more expensive so it depends if those features are with the cost difference.
While it's a low price, it seems $100 or so more for the DW735 is completely worth it.
Same price at Lowe's. I'm standing in front of them now.

This is the lowest I've ever seen this go on home depot. Sometimes they would include a free tool box but I haven't seen the deal pop up in a very long time so if you have been on the fence about this planer go ahead and scoop it up here!

Literally bought this for $400 with a toolbox 2 weeks ago. This is still a good deal, just stating that toolbox sale does still happen occasionally.

This is pretty narrow. Can plane up to 12.5 inches. What do people use this for?

Not to state the obvious but people use it to plane boards to the thickness they want to use. It can also get both sides of the boards flat.

"Bigger" ones aren't much bigger unless you spend quite a bit more money. Even going from 12.5" to 13" is typically a couple hundred dollars.

+1 on getting the D735x if the space and extra incremental cost works for you. Having got the 735X long ago, it's such a great planer for the serious home hobbyist. The dust ejection is very effective on the 735, and the fine setting allows for very minimal sanding afterwards.

I've been waiting forever for this price drop! I gave up 2 days ago when the [lesser] Ryobi version dropped to $150. Grrr Frown

This is more than likely the combo he is referencing. I bought this setup and am pleased with both the planer and toolbox. Didn't need it but hey, if it's included and for free, then it's for me lol.
