Summary: Very Usable, Tough, but Chip Collection Problematic
Comment: This was one of my most-used tools until I started using pocket hole joinery. At that point, biscuits took on more of a specialty role for me. My DeWalt 682 has seen a lot of use, though, and is still as tight as new. It comes with an excellent blade that stays sharp for a VERY long time, and the tool has plenty of power - it feels effortless.
I have only one complaint about this tool, and that's its dust & chip collection. The outlet is a bit small and plugs when using the bag. So badly, in fact, that I've taken to clearing it out after every few holes. I use the tool with a vac whenever possible, and the port stays clear.

Summary: Biscuit Jointer; cuts slots like a great slot cutter should
Comment: Bought one of these awhile back. I've used it on numerous projects without any problem. The motor will strain a bit if you really move into the cut too fast. Otherwise, the machine is repeatable with a nice fence. The adjustments for angle, size and depth are easy to manipulate and STAY there once set.
Highly recommended. Absolutely no problems.

Summary: Review
Comment: I purchased a new Dewalt 682K. The instructions were not great, especially for me (a relatively new woodworker). However, the problem was the depth gauge for the plunge--none (0, 10, 20, M) worked. With the exception of 0 (which was much deeper than it should have been), the other three were all the same depth. So, I took it back to the vendor (Western Tool). They pulled out a floor model to compare. Its depth guage didn't work either! That was the end of my Dewalt biscuit joiner.

Summary: Great Tool
Comment: I order this tool for a special project and was ready to use it as soon I got it out of the box. I started to cut the first joint and the handle collasped forward and smashed by fingers. On closer inspection I found that the threads in one side of the handle were stripped completely out. With care I continued to use the tool to finish the project. Later I filled the hole with metal epoxy and re-threaded it. I am sure dewalt would have made it good but I didn't have time. Somewhat dissapointed but the tool works great if you keep your fingers "from between the bricks"

Summary: Piece of Junk
Comment: I purchased a factory reconditioned (with full warranty) DeWalt plate joiner. Not only was it missing a pin on which the miter swivels up and down, but the blade cut far too deep, no matter how much I adjusted it. I had to stick a 16p nail in the missing hole to keep the miter from flopping around while working. It was a good thing I made many test cuts since it cut far deep. For example, on setting "0" it cut so deep that a "0" biscuit completely disappeared in the cut. I was finally able to crank the fine depth adjustment down so that on "0" setting I could use a "10" biscuit. I normally purchase DeWalt by default since I have never had anything but good luck with them, but boy did I get screwed on this one. Fortunately the retailer is taking it back based on the 90 day money back guarantee. I am honestly not sure I want to chance another DeWalt joiner at this time.
