    My first cordless plane and exceeded expectations, battery life not great even with 5amp batteries but good enough!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersReplaced my electric planer with the 18v. just about all my tools are now Makita battery, either X2, or 18v Li-Ion.
    The reason for the 4 stars is because shame on Makita they should give the bevel fence along with the efixed edge guide.
    Here in the US you don’t even get the fixed edge guide. Bare planer, and that’s it.

    Wish Makita would get with the program and come out with an X2 cordless tablesaw.

    Very good as always. Replaced my old one that had survived a fair number of falls and overnight stays in the rain.

    It’s rare that I pull out my 110v planer these days.

    Zum Produkt:
    Makita liefert wie erwartet mal wieder ein Spitzenprodukt ab. Klare Kaufempfehlung. Mit dem 4ah Akku ist die Maschine auch gut ausbalanciert. Wer schon Akkus im Bestand hat kann hier gut sparen. Die Tiefeneinstellung finde ich ein wenig verwirrend bei mehreren Umderehungen des Drehknopfs, jedoch ist dies Klagen auf sehr sehr hohem Niveau und somit eine klare Kaufempfehlung.

    Lieferung: Wie immer Blitzschnell geliefert. Klasse und Danke Amazon!

    Fit’s perfect on it and it’s dirt cheap. One or two screws and ur good to go. I think it’s normally around $12.00 and at the time of writing this it’s $2.99 on sale.

    Golden Review Award: 28 From Our UsersFor those who use the Makita 18v system,this is a good addition.Various reviewers dislike the spring-loaded shoe at the rear of the planer to give the blades clearance when put down.There is a hole in the shoe and it can be held up out of the way by putting a split-pin or similar through it.I also have the Makita KP0810K mains planer and people have asked if the dust-bag from this machine will fit the DKP180Z and I can confirm it does,also the blow moulded case for the above mentioned mains planer will fit.The depth dial on my planer reads 1.5mm when it is set to zero! but this isn’t a problem for me as I have always set the depth of the blade by sighting along the sole-plate, the same way as setting any non-electric plane.I’m pleased to see that this planer is made in the UK but hope it’s not a QC issue.I still think it’s worth a five star rating.(The Makita case part number is 824786-0).Having used this planer to ease an external door I confirm it’s up to the usual Makita quality.It’s a decent weight and reasonably quiet and virtually vibration free.

    What’s not to like? Quality product from Makita, appropriately heavy so it stays on task and moves smoothly across the wood. So far works very well. Only downside is it drains my 3ah quite quickly, so 5ah batteries probably recommended.

    Golden Review Award: 7 From Our UsersGradually building up my collection of cordless tools and whilst I have a priority list of things, I am occasionally treating myself to a few new toys!
    This was a bit of an extra treat for me as I have a couple of corded planners and dont use them all day every day. However I wanted to give this a go and I am glad I did.
    Like all the Makita 18v range I have used so far, this is just great quality and a real joy to use and I already know that its going to make the jobs that I use it for so much easier when I am not scrabbling around for a plug.
    Seems to be powerful enough and seems to be a real decent build quality. All set up and ready to go and so very happy with this so far.
    Ive suck a 5amp battery on it and that powers it just great.
    Very happy with this, and yes, a three year warrenty also whn youcomplete the details on-line.

    Golden Review Award: 16 From Our UsersDer Elektrohobel macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck und liegt sehr gut in der Hand. Sobald der Akku dran ist, ist der Hobel auch sehr gut ausbalanciert und lsst sich gut fhren.
    Nicht ganz so optimal finde ich die Schnitt-Tiefen-Einstellung. Trotz Tiefenanzeige am Drehrad, lsst sich die Schnitt-Tiefe nicht ohne weiteres ablesen geschweige denn anhand der Markierung einstellen. Vielleicht habe ich das Einstell-Prinzip nicht verstanden, aber ich empfehle lieber zuerst an einer unkritischen Stelle die Schnitt-Tiefe zu testen.

    Ansonsten ist der Hobel angenehm leise und gut kontrollierbar. Dank 18V Kompatibilitt eine super Ergnzung zu meinem restlichen Makita “Fuhrpark” 🙂

    Ich habe den Hobel gekauft um ein Holzgelnder von altem Lack zu befreien, das hat wunderbar funktioniert. Ich konnte damit gut eine halbe Stunde arbeiten ohne den Akku nachladen zu mssen. Nur der Einschaltknopf lsst sich etwas umstndlich bedienen, aber das ist wahrscheinlich sicherer so und man wird sich mit der Zeit an die richtige Bediehnreihenfolge gewhnen.

    You MUST get the bag separately but that is worth it. It saves so much clearing up.
    The bag catches 90% of the dust and is easy and clean to empty. The bag is a bit bulky to carry around though but that doesn’t come with it.

    Golden Review Award: 11 From Our UsersAll of my power tools are Makita LXT; purchased this planer on a really good sale in case I ever needed it in the future. Turns out I have had several uses for the tool and I am very satisfied with this. The construction is VERY sturdy; the tool is quite heavy and solidly built. Like all my Makita LXT, this tool confirms this is the right product for a “Prosumer” DIY enthusiast like me. I would assume this device will be quite well suited for a professional builder too.

    What I like
    – Strong, sturdy construction
    – Part of a line of tools that use the same battery
    – VERY powerful, never had any problems even with deep cuts
    – Can make precise adjustments to cutting depth

    What I dislike
    – The place where shavings are ejected is an oval shape; you cant connect a vacuum to extract the dust/shavings
    – The little V that runs along the bottom (for planing corners) is not very deep. It is quite easy to slip off a 45 angle

  56. JeanettBradberr says:

     United Kingdom

    Best cordless planer out at the moment, nearly as powerful as the kp0800 and very similar to use. However, like the kp0800 the depth adjustment is a bit vague and can turn below 0 and way beyond 2mm. Not sure why Makita doesn’t limit this like they do on the kp0810, so the depth adjustment is more precise. Has a great blade brake, is quiet but does eat batteries when planing 2mm. Ideal for shooting in doors, scribing arcs etc

    J’apprcie normment la libert du sans fil et la puissance du 18v.
    L’appareil n’est ni trop lger ni trop lourd, il est facile d’utilisation et d’entretien, la poigne est bien ergonomique et le rglage de profondeur de rabotage par molette est pratique et bien situ.
    Si il a un seul dfaut, c’est la consommation lectrique : une 4 Ah Makita ne fait pas long feu!!!! Il vaut mieux avoir plusieurs batteries et en garder une toujours pleinement charge.

    Very handy to use. The drum / blade mounting system is rather light weight /flimsey presumably to keep the inertia down and battery life up but it seems to work ok. It also has a rather annoying spring down leg so you can put the planer down on the deck with the blade still spinning. I find it just gets in the way in use so i have removed mine.
