Amazon.com Product Description
Fast, precise, and easy to handle, the DeWalt DW682K Heavy-Duty 6.5 Amp Plate Joiner puts 10,000 RPM to work for you. A perfect pick for woodworking applications, this reliable joiner utilizes a dual rack and pinion fence to deliver consistent, accurate joints. You can produce clean, flush cuts at 0-degrees without having to remove the adjustable fence, which tilts from 0 to 90 degrees for versatility. The thoughtful design of this tool even includes preset depth stops for common biscuit sizes and a 45-degree notch in the fence that permits easy indexing using the outside surface of a mitered joint. Other useful features include retractable, anti-slip pins that hold whatever you're working on securely in place and heavy-duty aluminum shoe with a non-marring surface to protect your materials and permit clamping of the joiner for accurate stationary performance. This kit includes a six-tooth carbide blade, a convenient dust bag, a vacuum adapter, torx key, wrench, and durable kit box for easy transport. This DeWalt high-performance industrial tool is backed by a 3-year limited warranty,

Versatile Joining Tool May 16, 2009
K. Gulledge
I read all the reviews and decided the Lamello was a bit too pricey. After looking at the Porter-Cable (too much going on with the lightweight fence) and the Freud (my second choice), I felt the Dewalt was the better alternative in this price range. As to the fence alignment, the blade was not parallel to the body. I found that loosening the two front screws allowed me to adjust the fence unit to overcome that problem. The rack and pinion height adjustment and the fine depth adjustment made it easy to set up to make rapid, repeatable slots. The dust catcher tends to clog easily and it sounds a bit mechanical when running otherwise it would be a 5 star unit.
 Not so accurate March 19, 2009
Sandy (Halifax Nova Scotia)
I purchased this to replace a Porter Cable 555. First, the fence was out of square. Next, the cuts were approximately 0.020 out on one edge. When you put the boards together, you have to overcome 0.040 total error. Using this to edge boards would be quite the chore. I sent the tool back as not accurate enough for fine woodworking.
Great tool at a reasonable price February 21, 2009
Jaronimo (NJ, the garden state)
I have owned my Dewalt biscuit joiner for many years and it has always performed great. The initial setup is very easy and I can make dozens of biscuit holes in no time at all.
The only complaint I have, and its a small one, is the dust bag. It does fill up kind of quickly and will sometimes spill out, especially when its filled with fine dust from MDF panels. Wood seems to have lots of curly-q pieces that stay in the bag. I found that if I empty the dust bag after every ten holes it works great. Emptying the bag is very fast, so its not much of an inconvenience.
Its a great tool that has held up well under repeated use.
Very Usable, Tough, but Chip Collection Problematic October 24, 2008
New England Yankee (Northern New England)
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.
 Biscuit Jointer; cuts slots like a great slot cutter should October 22, 2008

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.
