Comment: Don't let it's small size (and price) fool ya. This is a serious little tool. Perfect size for those small trim pieces I sometimes use on my boxes. It does a superior job of trimming end grain on lids to get that perfect fit, and is more accurate than sanding sponges for breaking those sharp edges on the box. It works equally well on softwoods and hardwoods, even those super hard exotics. It takes a very good edge and keeps it quite awhile. I have made a small "shooting" jig for it, so I can shave off that silly little mm on mitered trim for a perfect fit, it really excells at this job. Though quite small it is easy to hold and control. I haven't had any problems with the lock down mech. or movement of the blade once adjusted.
All things considered I am very pleased with this little guy and would recommend it to everyone.

Summary: Well worth it!
Comment: I am in the remodeling business and have recently been using this little plane on a cedar siding job. I am often up on a ladder and needed something small that would fit in my tool belt or pocket and this one does the trick.Size - While you obviously wouldn't use this for all your planeing needs, for the small detailed work, this is perfect.
Blade - I have been using this extensively on this job and the blade has managed to stay nice and sharp. The blade was coming loose a little so I now just tighten it down with a pair of pliers and so far the looseness has ended.
If you need a small planer, I would recommend this one. The Stanley name tends to be a quality hand tool.

Summary: Not a Toy
Comment: This little plane is not just a toy! It is a great tool for anybody doing trim work. Having this tool in your belt beats running back to the chop saw to take off a sliver of material. It cuts square and clean, unlike sandpaper, and can even plane end grain smooth. You can also back-cut crown molding and hand-cut angles to fit.

Summary: Super Handy
Comment: This little plane is more than a toy. It is a great tool for small jobs. Very controllable and easily adjustable, it fits well in your hand. I started using it to trim up some doors I was working on, but soon found it indispensible for any kind of trim work. Small enough to fit in any tool belt, it provides a great alternative to running back to the chop saw to take off a sliver of material. It slices clean and square (unlike sandpaper) and leaves a smooth cut end on even the smallest trim. Beats the heck out of a razor knife, too.
