Average Customer Ratings:

This 6" jointer has some of the most remarkable features found anywhere. Starting from the ground up: built-in "kick-stand" mobile base (just push the lever down, push the machine where you want it and kick the lever back up!), built-in dust chute with 4" dust collection hood, quick adjusting lever on the infeed table, fine control handwheel on the outfeed table, positive stop at 1/8" on the infeed table, large 5" x 35" cast iron fence, rack and pinion fence adjustment, and an easy access switch with a removable safety key.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Value, Great Customer Service
Comment: I've had this Joiner for about a week now and have run a good bit of stock through it. I've found it to be more than powerful, straight, easy to setup and VERY easy to move around with the wheels. This will get used very much in my shop. The only draw back was just all the grease on the surfaces for shipping. It was completely excessive and took a while to clean up but that's a minimal grip at best.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Not for me
Comment: In the woodworking circles I run it this and all Grizzly jointers seem to get a lot of praise. Customer service likewise. They are people I respect so I suspect that I got a lemon and have had bad luck with Grizzly in general. The Z-system on mine is horrible and months of working on it have not helped. The bed had a nice little dip in it and board of certain lengths and widths will not joint well. Aligning knives with the read bed is such a nightmare using the Grizzly system that I tossed that after a couple of new blades. Any adjustment that requires accuracy with my rear bed is such a nightmare that I made a jig to align the blades to the rear bed rather than the bed to the blades. This is also problematic as the bed can be adjusted to high for blade alignment (the blade will hit the bed). The endgame is that this jointer is being sold and will not be replaced by the same one although I am tempted by the grizzly 8" jointer with all the great reviews they are getting. Think I will go with Powermatic after my experience though.

Summary: Good value, good jointer.
Comment: I have had the jointer for a few days now and am very pleased with it. I just ran about 60 board feet of walnut through it today and I'm happy with the results.

Heavy duty, and just plain heavy. Listen to them when they suggest that you have a friend help you put it together.

The reason I chose this jointer over the competition is that the quality is very high for the cost. I'm sure it's not what a furniture building shop running every day would want, but for me (hobby use), it is definitely a big step up from the Delta Shopmaster benchtop jointer.

Also, if you compare this against the jointers I see as competing against it, this is the only one with a mobile base built in. That's a pretty big chunk of money if you had to go out and buy one.

The competition: Delta (floor shopmaster model; cheesy construction, too expensive, no mobile base), Jet (doesn't matter what model #, they're all too expensive), Sunhill (I don't know anything about this brand, but the cost was higher so I didn't even evaluate this one), Craftsman (21705; more expensive for probably the same quality), Ridgid (JP0610; closest competitor in my book, good reviews around the 'net, same cost since I paid for shipping on the Griz, would pay for tax on this one, but no mobile base and no fully enclosed stand). Anyways, I think the Grizzly machine stacks up well quality-wise with all of those. It definitely has handled the load I put on it today with good quality cut and a nice finish.
