I am looking to buy a biscuit jointer there are two which fit into my budget which are the Dewalt DW682k rrp £180 and the Makita PJ7000 rrp £228.
I have found mixed and mostly negative reviews of the dewalt but cannot find any reviews on the makita. Trend also have a jointer within my budget but read a review that absolutely slated it.
I am veering away from dewalt having had 3 of their xrp combined drills, first one the trigger packed up out of warranty. Second one the chuck kept releasing when drilling then the trigger packed up dewalt gave me a new one but this still has the chuck problem.
So could I have your opinions please and experiences of any of the above or any other jointers which I haven't found.
Cheers Chirpy, BTW I need it for a job this week
