As a finsh carpenter working in the booming SF world of Victorian renovation, a biscuit joiner is a must. This cordless works almost as well as my old DeWalt corded joiner. The trade off is: slightly less power and much greater weight for increased mobility. Although heavier, larger, & less powerful than the original, the mobility offered by this update wins the day.

This tool has NO POWER! It's good for about 10 cuts then needs a new charge. The only reason I bought it was so that I would have a 3rd battery for my drill/saw. I typically like Dewalt cordless tools, but I would not recommend this tool.

Should have listened to John Bryer review...Corded Plate Joiner is gutless. I set up a comparision between my 18v and my brother's corded. The first biscuit (on full charge) only cut about 90% and then the blade stalled. Same thing on the second. Slowing down the feed solved the stalling problem but left me disappointed with the performance of the tool. Otherwise, the cuts were of the same high quality as the corded joiner. The portability is somewhat offset by the extra weight and the need to have a vacuum attached to ensure through dust extraction.

i personally use dewalt tools , and have since they came out on the market.i started out with the 12v. drill ,and went on from there .most of my tools are dewalt from my 12-inch compound saw ,plate jointer(110v),18v saw,18v drill 2-14v drills,surface planer.24v drill,24v saw(awh awh awh) ect,ect.as a finish carpenter i look for convienance.since most of the houses i work in(5-million dollar and up)are without power or power is shared by many trades out of one small temporary box,i find it very convienant when i can get a cordless tool to do most anything.while others are fighting over temp power.i look foward to using my new cordless plate jointer when it arrives i can honestly say i have never had a dewalt tool fail to do the job except! when a battery runs down but then i always have one charging and ready to continue.

the next tools i plan to add to my collection is the radio/charger, a pin router(cordless,when they design one)dewalt of course.its hard to do quality work without quality tools. take it from someone who's been in the construction feild for 18+yrs. customers depend on you and you depend on your tools. i have found dewalt tools to be affordable and dependable

thank you dewalt .you keep designing them and ill keep buying them........ todd k.orange county ca.
