 Poor accessory planning, good shaper August 21, 2008
Very happy with the speed of delivery. Have had it in operation for 3 weeks now. Set up is a little cumbersome with having to remove the fence to change the rings and change bits. I have used it mostly with the " collet and it's power and cutting speed are fine.
I dropped the 5th star because of the accessories. I ordered the Jet JW1044 4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch Reducer. While it is presented as a solution for us with a shop vac powered dust collection system it is more like a kluge. The adapter does not fit the exhaust from the shaper. It requires a short bit of 4" tubing and either duct tape or hose clamps. (I used a piece of PVC pipe just a little larger than the exhaust and reducer.) A reducer sold as a accessory for the shaper really should be made to work with that shaper.
If you have 4" dust collection or don't care about dust collection this unit is ready to go out of the crate.
JET 1-1/2 hp Shaper June 18, 2008
This is a fine piece of equipment. I am not sure if the door latch to access the motor and belts is the same as others described, but it works fine and allows you to access the interior of the machine without turning any screws or knobs-just a quick pull on the handle and move it out of the way. The fence with it's independent adjustment works great. The fit and polish of this shaper is perfect. The only thing I could ask for would to be able to install a different ring under the cutter for larger bits that need to be mounted under the table.
 awkward fence February 24, 2007

For the money it's an OK machine and the router bit adapters are handy, but the fence doesn't move far enough back to change bits. At least one, sometimes both, T bolts must be removed to get the fence out of the way for bit changes.
 Great shaper foa a reasonable price February 20, 2007
I was really impressed when this shaper arrived. It was a lot more sustantial than I imagined from the photo and the price. I am making kitchen cabinets and this tool is exactly what I wanted. I have seen router tables close to this price range. It is a beautiful tool. This is a great tool for the small shop or home craftsman. Between the 2 router chucks and the 2 spindles, this tool is very versatile. Now go order one.

I have had this machine for 6 months. Each month I have learned how much this machine is capable of. It is a quality heavy duty shaper, not a toy. I have used both shaper and router bits with no trouble. I have made kickboard, crown, and other moldings along with a dozen or more raised panel doors out of oak and maple without a hitch. The finish on the machine is excellent with everything heavy duty except for my one complaint.
The latch for the access door on the side is a spring latch that seems to be not of the quality of the rest of the machine. But other than this, this shaper is everything that I wanted.
