The DW735 has a great reputation. Blades are easy but tedious to change,
run about $55 all over the place, but I have no idea how long they last
vs the competition.
The DW735X models usually have an infeed and outfeed extension table. I
don't have them, and have just gotten into the habit of supporting the
board as it comes out of the planer. As long as I do that, the snipe is
minimal if present at all.

Any with non disposable blades.
If you want bench top, look for a Ryobi AP 10 planer, it has non disposable
blades but has been out of production for years. I bought one new before
any one else was making bench top planers, mid 80's. IIRC

This also has a lot to do with "your" technique, it is not just the planer.

Festool does not offer one yet.

Electric Comet, buy the tool that matches your requirements.
Far more important are criteria such as how wide the typical
stock is that you'll be planing, how much use the planer will
receive, how much space you have for the planer (and associated
infeed and outfeed tables), how much cash you're willing to
spend, what type of material you'll be planing most often and
whether it will be used for rough or finish planing.

What Scott said...Many variables. Dewalt 735 is a beast, and blades are not=
only double sided, I believe they can be sharpened. It is also set up well=
for dust ejection/collection. Keep your eyes open for local yard sales/cra=
igslist, and even eBay. Use the search word "planner" as many sellers seem =
to use that spelling...(and even "plainer" but not quite as often...)

An old Delta - well cared for, is likely to continue to outperform
any of the new stuff for a long time to come, and they are often
available for a pretty good price.

Happy with my Delta but cannot compare it to the others as I've not
tried them. Dewalt has a good reputation too.

Based on your priorities, maybe you should get one with a spiral
cutterhead (see grizzly.com, for instance).

Are you sure that is Comet??? He used a spot of punctuation.
I guess enough have blocked his other name, add another to the list.

The tables are available for the DW735 (item number DW7351). Amazon
has them for $50.
