That said, add me to the long list of folks who bought one of these thinking it would get used a lot more than it actually does. Serious hobbyists would be much better served with a Festool Domino, and less serious hobbyists simply don't need one of these.
It's hard to recommend a biscuit joiner to anyone except folks who just like tools (guilty).

biscuits are for aligning

Mainly building kitchen cabinets and joining counter tops. These tools are fast and foolproof. Great for aligning joints that need hidden fasteners all the way around (like live-edge waterfall tables).
Keep a spare blade (we use CMT) on hand in case you hit some trash in the wood. You can usually sharpen an undamaged blade about 5 times, depending on how thick the carbide is.
You can use biscuits along with a Kreg, for fast knock-down boxes.

I have a Makita. Maybe the blade and/or tool are the issue as I am (possibly) getting a little slop on the cut(s). I don't think I am misusing the tool. Any thoughts/suggestions based on your experience?

Because they are a wood product, there will always be a few that are too tight or loose, that's normal. There are times you might want some looser ones, so toss those in a jar (leave the jar open on a humid day, or throw a piece of damp sponge inside). Hit the fat ones with a hammer, or re-crush them in a vise.
I've even cut my own biscuits from Mahogany to repair when people break the heads off of their Les Paul guitars. Cut them with a coping saw, then squish them a little in a vise with the waffle faces outward. Making them with the grain going in the opposite direction makes for a really strong neck repair.
Make sure your arbor is clean whenever you replace a blade, to avoid wobble.
