The outfeed folding table doesn't fold up into place like the infeed side. The chip deflector protrudes so much that it prevents it from locking into place.

Production-wise, which is the better deal? This Dewalt or the Ridgid that was recently listed at only ~$130: https://slickdeals.net/f/17835789-ridgid-3-blade-planer-r4850-129?attrsrc=Thr
Is there something more that either provides? If one buys the lower priced Ridgid are they forced to buy a $300 blade which adds a cost which strikes it even as an expense? I ask because reading some comments regarding the Ridgid a few people complained that the blades included quickly broke or were dulled after just a few passes.
Thank you for any added information.

Was looking to get the HERCULES planer (a clone of this Dewalt) last week for $320 but the local Harbor Freight did not have it in stock. Now it is in stock but it $350. Hope I made the right decision to get this Dewalt for a little more.
