Product Description
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.

Ordered this tool online from Grizzly and in bold letters the add said it was a spiral cutterhead. Recieved the tool and it was a 4 blade cutterhead. Called Grizzly and was told this was a known error in the catalog and I could ship it back if I paid the shipping 89 dollars and a10% restocking fee (65.00) more for a total of 154.00 in cost to me for their mistake. You would think that if the mistake was known I would have recieved an email or a phone call making sure that it was clear that I knew what item I was recieving. After two phone calls more they agreed to waiver both fees if I bought the machine the add was for at 200.00 more and 89.00 shipping for a new total of 289.00 more for the machine I thought I was ordering in the first place. What was even worse was the supervisor from tech support that called was one of the rudest people I have delt with in quite awhile. I was in the service for 20 years so I have seen my share. I am a disabled vet with 3 kids so this was a very big purchase for me. I do own several other Grizzly tools and have sung their prases until now I will never buy another tool from them and hope that my fellow veterans will do the same. Please copy paste and forward this email.
 Great jointer! April 14, 2009

This is the first jointer I've ever owned. It's probably a bit heavy-duty for a first-time jointer, but I'm really glad I went with it. It's about 300lbs overall so it comes via freight, but that process was really easy. Setup after I got home was pretty easy too. I've only been able to run a couple boards through, mainly for setup, but the cuts were perfect and extremely smooth. This has turned out to be a much better buy than I even expected it to be. The built-in mobile base is also an excellent feature. It makes it extremely easy to move around the shop.
Awesome product, not fun to clean at first though. December 30, 2008

I own a small cabinet shop and this jointer is more than adequate for the job. Even with 1hp it does just fine. Grizzly is the way to go. I just need to hear from someone about their shapers. I can't find any recent reviews for them.
Great Value, Great Customer Service October 22, 2008

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.

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.
