How recent was that? My DW735 was $535, and I thought I got a pretty decent deal on it.

Or he figures he has a live one and he's just upped the ante to keep you=20 on the hook.=20

Allowing that Larry is correct, there are a number of possibilities that=20 come to mind and all of them are ...........unpleasant.

I think I remember seeing a Ryobi bench top model at Home Depot today for about $239.

The DeWalt was $399.

Yeah. And I would also say Whhooooooaa there pardner!. The newer

1300/1301 Ryobi's are not even a shadow of the old 10" machine you originally posted. As mentioned in my earlier post I just passed my old 12-1/2" Ryobi on to our son. My old machine was a close cousin to the 10" Ryobi at least in weight and quality - IOW - built like a tank. I have seen the new ones in HD and they are cheaply made stuff. "Stuff" is better than what I was thinking. Ryobi's overall quality and reputation have slid during the past 10-15 years on most stuff except maybe their battery operated drills. In fact I don't even believe that all of the new planers have infeed/outfeed tables.

I said earlier that the 10" 'er was probably priced too high. But I would go with it before this one. As the reviews Larry posted shows there were three opinions. Stinks, Middle Top. What do you conclude from that? At least one guy wanted to justify his purchase. The other too were not that happy :^&}

BTW, my neighbor has owned one of the Rigid 3-knifers for a while, and he uses it a fair amount. Loves it. The reason I mention it is it showed up at the bottom of the Amazon page Larry linked.
