Keith,
I bought the DW735 to replace an older Delta planer, and couldn't be
happier. Comparred to my old one the finish is much better, even as the
blades wear, the maintenance is much easier, and the power seems to be
plenty sufficient. I have used it enough to be on the second side of
the blades that came with it, so maybe not a ton, but some.

I haven't looked back on that purchase even once.
