Community Reviews
Ridgid's 6 inch jointer comes across as a solid, easy to use shop machine for small stock, especially if you want a brand new unit delivered free. The price is viewed as fair for new, and the machine is described as square, not too heavy, and a good home shop fit, with a Shelix head and mobility base as useful upgrades. The main knocks are the small 6 inch capacity, corded power, and limited spare parts availability. It is a practical short bed jointer, but the size and support limits matter.
The AAFES route can deliver the new 6-inch jointer for $494.55 shipped with no tax.
The jointer can be a practical home "gamer" option for planing and jointing smaller boards.
Upgrading with a Shelix head can improve the jointer's performance for home use.
The machine can also function as a bench planer and stays square and easy to use.
The 6-inch width limits woodworking use to shorter stock lengths.
The jointer's cast-iron rust pitting may require checking bed coplanarity and motor condition before buying.
The corded design can be a drawback for jointing lumber in remote locations like a farm field.
Spare parts availability on the Ridgid website can be limited when trying to source missing components.

A cast iron tool with rust/pitting often means I'm going to be able to talk their price down.
