Im in a market for a benchtop/portable thicknesser planer, or a jointer/thicknesser combo. I basically don't want a big bulky machine, and also not looking to spend a lot of money.

I've been on the net reading reviews and watching videos, but all of those videos are from overseas. The one candidate I am interested in is a Dewalt DW735, but I can not find even a single reference of it on the South African web search results.

I will be doing quite a bit of wood work and looking for a long term solution. Budget is around R15K.

Questions:

1 - Where can one find Dewalt planer thicknessers?
2 - What other recommendation or alternatives can you suggest?
3 - Is a benchtop thicknesser even worth it in the first place?

Thanks in advance.
