Worth the money April 13, 2009
Richard L. Wills (Crofton, KY USA)
A very good machine for the money. Arrived a little late with minor damage and some missing parts, but customer service sent all of the missing pieces and they arrived in two days and the shipping company found the bag of parts that was missing and delivered them the next day.

Well built jointer. For small shops it works well when placed on a mobile base. All parts are machined well and flat. It is extremely heavy and will require assistance building/installing.

Delta jointer works well for home hobbist.
It took about 3 hours to assemble.
The dust chute was dented due to rough shipment and had to be undented.
The attachment tab on the dust chute had to be rivetted back on due to a weak rivet and came off when undenting and reshaping dust chute.
Except for the rough shipping, it works as expected for hobbist. It's much better than any bench model would be.
Great for the price December 15, 2008

At 320 bucks shipped, a very good deal. Down from about $410. Either it is an end of year clearence, or a new model is coming.
This is assemble yourself. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. You do need help lifting and turning this puppy. The parts do come covered in grease and need to be cleaned.
As other reviews indicate, fairly straight forward to assemble. I did buy a universal stand to move it around, but it seems hokey. Do wish Delta would design wheels etc into it integrally, it would not be that much more difficult or expensive. The standard is the DeWalt planner stand.
The one reviewer that did not find it easy to assemble, IMO, I don't think had much experience or mis-read the instructions.

I found this jointer to be reasonably easy to assemble, adjust, and use.
It would have been easier for me to assemble by myself if it were not as heavy, but now I'm glad it's heavy. It came partly adjusted. The knives were parallel to, but considerably below the outfeed table. However, it was no problem at all to adjust the outfeed table height to precisely the height of the knives. The fence was slightly off of perpendicular to the table, but again, easy to adjust. The parts bag had exactly the number of bolts and screws required for assembly which is sometimes a problem for me. If I drop a small part during assembly, the shop floor is sort of a black hole, and the part is never seen again. It wouldn't hurt for Delta to pack an extra bolt and screw of each size, just in case. I had a few lock washers left over when I was finished with assembly. I went back through the assembly instructions looking for the location where I was supposed to have used them. I never found where they went.
The jointer works great, and is very accurate. The length of the table is a plus, but the tool does not seem to take up too much room in the shop. I noticed that the knife guard also seems to act as kickback resistance. Maybe all modern jointers are this way, but my old jointer (circa 1950) did not have this feature. The only feature which seems to be missing is a cup holder.
The only problem I had was a broken cover plate on the side of the motor. The jointer was not packed well, the styrofoam packing blocks in the carton were considerably damaged when I got it. The motor was able to move in the box which is probably how the cover plate got broken. After contacting Amazon, Delta shipped a new motor. I swapped the cover plates, and returned the motor, all at their expense. I was very pleased with the way it was handled by both Amazon and Delta.
