Saved me a ton of time and looks professional!! I love this tool!!!
I already had a 50+ y.o. Rockwell, BUT it was purpose-built for narrower wood (eg doors) and the side fence is non-removable. This model comes with a removable fence that seems to be easily adjusted (I put it on, tested the fit and adjusters but then took it right off since I was eager to experiment with wider slab-like boards.) So far in 2-3 hours' use it does a fantastic job. I pushed it a time or two (on well-seasoned oak and poplar) just to see where the motor started to bog, but in most any normal use, I don't forsee a problem. The Bosch has an overall solid feel comparable to the old (but still great running) Rockwell.
Other than initial cost, I can think of no real shortcomings or criticisms.
Using the bevel guide is OK but it would be nice if the portion of the guide that ran along the face of the door was longer than the baseplate is wide, making it easier to make the bevel. As it is, holding the tool properly for the first pass at the bevel is awkward. Gotta build one's skills to make it work best. Many problems seem to be a function of making the tool and accessories fit into the blow-molded case. Making the case bigger would be better than the compromises on the tool to make it fit.
Long line cord is good. Changeable dust port is good. Depth adjustment seems accurate. Blades are holding up well after beveling 14 doors.
I would still recommend keeping a jack plane around, for finishing the fine details, anyways. At least, for the time being. That may change. I am very glad that I spent the money on this tool, and this specific brand.
