Grizzly G1182HW

Does anyone have this joiner? This seems like a good deal I was thinking of giving the guy a ring tonight.

I have had an 1182 with levers for 4 or 5 years with no problems. I believe mine was $325 + shipping when I bought it. I remember that it was rated well in some magazine test at the time.

Would like to stay around 300-350 for a jointer, so 8" is really out of the question. I just wonder if this lacks anything a 350 on sale ridgid jointer has. Or even a Grizzly at ~375.

The G1182HW was rated #1 by Wood Mag around 2001. It's the same basic design as the Jet, GI, Sunhill, Bridgewood, Woodtek, and Ridgid of that era. Mine's been going strong for 8 years....$250 is about what I'd want to get, but I think the reality of the market values it at closer to $200 used. That one looks to be in good shape and includes the mobile base. Ask about extra blades.

Here are some other pics. So does it seem like a good deal?

I would say it sounds like a good deal.

I would probably take that one over the Rigid on sale IMHO, It looks to be in good shape. Currently there is a Model G1182 in my neck of the woods, & the buyer is asking 250 obo. Not sure what the HW adds. Maybe heavier?

Hand wheels I do believe.

Its a 4 hr round trip for me. So weighing that in on buying a new grizzly for 375.
