Its fine
It works like it should. Not very refined for the price, however you get more blades than other offerings. I would say this tool is good, not great, and the wood fence may need some touch up.

Good Price, Good Performance
I've been looking at plough planes for a while and decided to take a chance on this one for the price since it came with so many blade options.It's pretty hard to complain about anything that makes a real difference. It comes in a sturdy cardboard box that's not just for shipping, it can be used for storage as well. The wooden fence works well, though (and this is my only negative observation) the 45 degree chamfer on the end grain wasn't totally smooth. In reality it's nothing to complain about and easily cured with a few second of 120 grit sandpaper.This kit comes with quite a few blades, both metric and imperial, all of which are fairly sharp out of the box.Setup is straight forward. The blade high/depth positioned manually (there is no adjustment screw) but it's quite easy to do. I was using it within 5 minutes of opening the box, cutting slots/channels and rebates with ease, including a 1.5mm rebate on 3mm birch ply.Everything you can do with this can be done with a routers, but they are noisy, produce dust (instead of shavings) and take longer to setup. If I had lots of identical items to run through then perhaps the router table (with dust extraction) would make sense but for just a few pieces this is the quicker option and no need for the dust mask.This is a no-nonsense plough plane that I would not hesitate to buy again.

Better have tiny hands
I saw positive reviews on this tool on YT and decided to take it for a spin. I made a big mistake however - note the small size!!. I can barely get 3 fingers through the tote loop. It's a nice tool, but wow what I wouldn't give for one that came with a full-size grip.

Quality tool
Bought from Workshop Heaven. This is a lovely tool to use. Yes the grip is small, but fine for thin shavings. Leaves a very neat and accurate finish. Plane irons are sharp enough to do a good job out of the box. Haven't had to hone any of them yet. Recommended.

Stainless steel construction , generous amount of blades, prompt service.
Cabinet making, without the noise of my electric router 😌
