  • Our take on the Craftsman CMEW320

    The CMEW320 is a benchtop thickness planer with a 15 amp brushed motor spinning a two-knife cutter head at 8,000 RPM. It planes boards up to 12.25 inches wide and takes up to 1/8 inch per pass, with a 4-inch dust port for a hose. It suits home shops and small furniture work where a lunchbox planer is enough. Against three-knife and helical-head rivals it leaves a rougher finish and needs more sanding, and its two-knife setup is slower to change, but the steel cutter head and simple controls keep it a straightforward entry machine.

    Pros
    • 15 amp motor and 8,000 RPM cutter head handle full-width passes
    • 12.25-inch planing width covers most furniture boards
    • Takes up to 1/8 inch per pass for faster stock removal

    • Solid steel cutter head and safety bump on/off switch
    Cons
    • Two-knife head leaves a rougher finish than three-knife or helical heads
    • Blade changes and setup are slower with two knives
    • Brushed motor needs brush attention over time

    Questions and answers

    How wide a board can the CMEW320 plane?
    It planes boards up to 12.25 inches wide. Wider stock needs a larger planer or ripping first.
    How much does it take off in one pass?
    Up to 1/8 inch per pass. Deeper cuts strain the motor and leave a rougher surface, so take lighter passes on hard woods.
    Does it collect dust?
    Yes. It has a 4-inch dust port for a hose, so a shop vacuum or collector keeps chips out of the cut.
    What finish should I expect from the two-knife head?
    A serviceable but rougher finish than three-knife or helical heads. Plan on sanding, especially on figured or hard woods.
    What comes in the box?
    The planer itself. Check the listing for any extras before you buy, since stands and spare knives are usually sold separately.
    Is it a replacement for a jointer?
    No. A planer makes a board a consistent thickness but does not flatten a twisted face; you still need a jointer or a sled jig first.
    Where is the Craftsman CMEW320 cheapest?
    At Amazon, for $384.00, as of our latest check.
    Where can I buy the Craftsman CMEW320?
    13 stores we checked sell it, including Amazon, MartDiscover.com, Ace Family Hardware, Stones Ace of, Acme Tools.
