Amazon.com Product Description
The Lamello Top 20S is a fantastic grooving machine with a height-adjustable cutting tool. It features a 6-tooth carbide-tipped cutter with scoring teeth, integrated suction (vacuum connection 23mm) stub, and extractor stub (36mm); and it offers simple preparation of joints, even with projecting or rejecting areas. There's a soft start function for smooth acceleration, an overload protection system, and a dove-tail guidance system with grids of 1mm -- for absolutely parallel attachment and a large, safe working surface when you use the machine in a vertical position. This model includes a dust bag, square stop, slip-on plate (4mm), tool set, instructions, and a wood carrying case.

 TRY THE REST AND THEN THE BESTE June 9, 2009

I've had three biscuit cutters. NONE, come close to this. It's precise,
it's well built, it well balanced and it does perfect work. If you want the best, you have to pay for the best. THIS IS THE BEST. Nothing comes close. It has dead on flat and vertical accuracy, soft start and a great fence. After three years in a high school class, its also proven to be durable. Pick this up. What do you feel? Balance Set the dials. What do you get? Absolute accuracy. Yep, its expensive. What is more expensive is cursing as you try and fix work when you are supposed to be having fun. Take the plunge; no pun intended. You won't be disappointed.
 Great tool...... but come on, it is only a biscuit joiner! May 1, 2009

I have used this machine many many times but never owned one. Yes it is very nice as far as biscuit joiner's are concerned. I have a dewalt that was given to me that honestly does a fantastic job considering the brand. The price on this tool on Amazon at the moment is 879.00!!!! Uhm buy a Festool Domino for less than 600. It is a way better machine and is so much more versatile than a biscuit joiner. Seriously once the Domino catches on everywhere the biscuit joiner will be extinct!

I had an old SKIL biscuit joiner for years and it did an OK job, but it was tired and a new one was in my immediate future. I researched and asked friends and of course they all loved the one they had. Most satisfied were the Porter Cable folks. So I borrowed a friends PC and used it on my last project. Decent machine, but not a life long product for a busy woodworker and the adjustments didn't seem as easy as the Lamello. I decided to get the Lamello and waited for 3 or 4 months checking the price on Amazon daily and when it dipped to $649.00 I jumped on it. WOW! What a machine. I hated that it took me so long to pull the trigger, but it beats everything I have seen or used hands down. The adjustments are SIMPLE and ACCURATE!! This is clearly a case of you get what you pay for. Wait for the price drop and do it!! Worth the higher price, but if you don't need it right away...save some bucks. You will NOT be unhappy! This is the first time I have ever taken the time to review any of my purchases, but this one warranted it and you people deserve to know. Good Luck!
In a league of its own A masterpeice! Ultra Percision!!!! May 7, 2008

My old tool was aging so I replaced it with the Lamello. The Lamello fully mature product after many decades of perfecting the design. This tool is so well built that you have to use it and see it to believe it. The build quality is just off the scale. My wooden case arrives in perfect shape and well built. I gather that can vary from previous customer reviews. Other places are charging 150-250 more than Amazon. It is expensive but Amazon eases the pain of the price. Every cut perfect - the first and repeated. Superb accuracy. As expensive as this tool is presently - the the EURO vs the US dollar will drive the price even higher in the near future. Lamello reminds me of Starrett quality of many many decades ago! This tool is not over priced - the only question whether one can afford or needs the quality.
I have one other tools(the one replaced)around 200.00(there are several in that price range) not to mention any names - it has always been inconsistent on repeat cuts - there is some play somewhere. It been disappointing. Others have commented with similar issues on precision. The Lamello everything works perfect from the first to the last! WOW! what a difference!

The only thing I can really say is...buy the best & forget the rest...you won't regret it.
Or you can do like I did. First buy a cheaper biscuit joiner, find out you get what you pay for, then spend even more money to buy what you should've bought in the first place.
Just a superb biscuit joiner. Very nice soft start. Zero slop & I do mean zero. Pinpoint setting adjustments. Dust bag is OK, but it's a dust bag. Hook it up to a shop vac for complete dust control.
If you want to use the Lamello Top 20 to join face frames or use it for other small applications, get the H-9 cutter head & applicably sized biscuits.
