So I tried a whole host of options before splashing out on this: the wolfcraft dowel master, kreg pocket hole jig, a biscuit joiner. At the end of the day, all of them offer the same ability to join wood, but none of them do it with the ease and speed of the domino.It's also a very strong joint - you'd have to use two or three dowels to get the equivalent strength of a hardwood domino dowel, but with each additional normal round dowel you add you increase the risk of misalignment. With the domino, it's as easy as marking a line on both pieces and making the plunge cut.The machine is made very well - it's precision engineered, smooth but sturdy. Hooking up a shop vac to the hose outlet completely eliminates dust & chips.

I was like a kid at Christmas waiting for this to arrive but you know when you were a kid and get a duff toy that’s not what you thought it would be like. I was thinking festool is quality when I opened the box the base of the tool was scratched up and the depth switch would only work on 2 settings and when you tried to switch it on it sparks then you quickly get on the phone to the supplier who’s rating isn’t the best buts that’s where I was surprised they quickly got the tool returned to them and I received a new one in 3 days which has had a battering in the last two months building anything from rad covers to fitted shelving and wardrobes only time will tell,

I'm a cabinet maker. This is as close to an essential tool, creating fast, accurate and repeatable dowel joints all day long. Easy to use and with the various bit sizes from 4mm to 10mm pretty much covers most jointing requirements from smaller trim up to largish cabinet doors and large cabinets. If you want to make full size hardwood doors, or large dining tables I suspect the DF700 (it's bigger bother) would be better suited, but I've made some sizeable custom storage units with this and the joints are so tight and secure they pretty much hold themselves square while dry assembling, which is much much better than any biscuit joiner I've ever used.
