Editorial Review:
Planer Kit With Bevel Guide Fence, 3-1/4" x 3/32", 6.5A, Chip Ejection Switch Allows Debris To Eject On Either Side, Accepts Large HSS Blades, Spring Loaded Park Rest Stand, Protects The Blade & The Workpiece.
This well-designed planer offers fast stock removal and the smoothest finish--exactly what we expected from Bosch. The powerful 6.5 amp motor runs the versatile two-blade Woodrazor system at 16,500 rpm with a protective shield that covers the section of blade that's not in use. The fence itself deserves applause--bevels are accurate and easy to adjust. We love the chip ejection as well. Too many times, we've tried tools with an exhaust system that might as well not be there, but this one actually moves the removed stock and it's multidirectional! Deep cuts are possible in just one pass without bogging or chatter. There's even a spring-loaded park rest stand that protects blade and workpiece. The saw is a special shape that allows easy start-up in the middle of a workpiece. Accidental starts are a thing of the past because of the lock-off release button. Bosch thought of everything; we're impressed. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Great Planer Bosch has done it again.
Well made, works great and does the job well.
You can't go wrong with this one.
Boscsh 1594 Door Planer The Bosch 1594k is yet another great example of Bosch tools, Quality. Ease of operation. A must have item!
Even better I'm a boat builder and had the precurser to this planer when I started my schooner many years ago. It went through thousands of feet of oak and mahogany bevel cuts and was a pleasure to use. My friends had the ubiquitous Makita planer and I was swayed to switch to it (after my Bosch was stolen) because you can mill down the cutting depth adjustment to get an 1/8" of cut, and the Makita is powerful enough to handle it. The Makitas have one flaw that always bothered me though, they vibrate a lot,... more info
Nothing lines up! The front and rear shoes are not on the same plane and the blades do not line up with either of them. If set at zero, the planer would remove material...but only on one side! I'm glad I read these reviews so I knew what to look out for when I purchased this soon to be returned item. If you decide to give this one a shot, take a straight edge to the bottom of this turd and hope its all on the same "plane".
