DEWALT DW735 13-Inch Two-Speed Thickness Planer

Two-Speed: The DEWALT DW735 thickness planer is a corded 13-inch benchtop model with two feed speeds and a three-knife cutter head. Its two feed settings target different cuts per inch, while fan-assisted chip ejection and an automatic carriage lock address cleanup and snipe control. The listing has a key motor-speed discrepancy, so confirm the details for the selected DW735 before purchase.

At a glance

  • Two feed speeds are listed at 96 or 179 cuts per inch, allowing a choice of feed setting for the pass.
  • The three-knife cutter head is claimed to provide longer knife life and quicker, easier knife changes.
  • Fan-assisted chip ejection directs chips away from the cutter head and out of the machine.
  • An automatic carriage lock is designed to reduce movement associated with snipe, without manual engagement.
  • A material-removal gauge, thickness scale and turret depth stop support repeatable thickness settings.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing is inconsistent about motor speed: one product detail and feature text give 10,000 rpm, while the manufacturer description states a 20,000 RPM motor and 10,000 RPM cutter-head speed. It also describes DW735X in one passage although the product identity is DW735. Confirm the selected model's motor and cutter-head specifications, along with the stated dimensions and package contents, before buying. The claimed carriage lock reduces snipe-related movement but does not guarantee snipe-free results. The listing describes a 19-3/4-inch cast aluminum base, while the material fields separately say Blend and Aluminum. Treat these as distinct listed descriptions rather than a single confirmed material specification.

Customer feedback describes the planer as easy to operate, effective and durable, with positive comments about results and blade changes. Reports on snipe reduction are mixed, which matters despite the listing's automatic carriage-lock claim. The ratings distribution is mostly five-star but includes lower-star ratings, so it indicates generally favourable sentiment rather than uniform experiences.

Mixed feedback

  • Customer feedback is mixed on how well the planer reduces snipe.

Frequently asked questions

What is the listed cutting width of the DEWALT DW735?

The listing specifies a cutting width of 13 inches.

What are the two feed settings?

The feature listing gives 96 or 179 CPI. It describes these as cuts per inch for the two feed-speed options.

Does the DW735 listing guarantee that it prevents snipe?

No. It says the automatic carriage lock reduces movement that causes snipe. Customer feedback is mixed on snipe reduction, so this should not be treated as a guarantee.

What should I verify before ordering?

Confirm the motor and cutter-head speed for the selected DW735, since the listing presents both a 20,000 RPM motor claim and a separate 10,000 rpm speed detail. Also verify the package contents for the selected listing.
