I'm looking to buy a new planer and I've narrowed it down to two options: the FindBuyTool FB131H and the DeWalt 735. I'm seeking some advice on which one might be the better purchase. Any recommendations?

I’d be cautious about the FindBuyTool since its reliability isn't as well-known as the DeWalt 735. The DeWalt has a solid history and parts are easy to find if something goes wrong.
I'd definitely go with the DeWalt 735. It's super reliable and gets the job done well!
Why do you recommend the DW735 so highly?
My dad picked up a Rikon for just a bit more than the 735, and I have to say, it works really well with its helical head. Keep that in mind when you're comparing prices!
Is the Rikon model on sale right now?

What do you think about the Rikon planer?
