HO 0882 Power Planer Review
Particularly well suited for finish work, this planer from Metabo has an excellent front grip
This planer cut beautifully in all materials and balanced well on narrow stock. The good balance comes from its excellent front grip, which was also one of the best depth-of-cut controls in the group. It comes with a fence that shields the unused part of the blade. It collected dust effectively in our test. The tool’s handle is too horizontal, however, and the tester’s wrist soon grew tired of its awkward feel. Still, this is an excellent all-around planer that’s particularly well suited for finish work.
