Lidl Parkside Planer. Any good?

jeffwode · 2014-01-19 13:37:08

I see Lidl has a 750W electric planer for 40 quid from tomorrow. Has anyone ever bought one before? Are they any good? For €40 it might be worth a shot.

In case anyone is interested, I looked at these planers this morning and decided against buying one. They seemed very heavy and the finish seemed very imprecise. I think I'll wait and pick up a smaller, lighter version whenever I spot a bargain. Link to Lidl one here.

While I was there, I picked up a few of these for a fiver each. Magnetic tool racks for the shed. Best way of storing tools. http://www.lidl.ie/cps/rde/SID-DE488438-28787A6F/www_lidl_ie/hs.xsl/Offers.htm?action=showDetail&id=1816
