Power tools are divided into two categories: household and professional. Note that this division is conditional. Professional models are models that can withstand high loads. That is, they have higher quality and, accordingly, the price. For the house, such a unit is not needed. More precisely, it makes no sense to overpay for it.
But chasing a low price tag is not worth it. There are many unknown Chinese brands among the cheap options, and some of them are quite worthy of attention, but most often this is a low-quality tool that will not last long even with minimal loads. Our rating includes electric planes that combine high quality and reasonable price. They cannot be classified as professional, but in domestic conditions they will serve faithfully for more than one year.
When compiling the rating, we were guided by several factors:
- positive reviews on popular resources and marketplaces;
- reputation of the manufacturer;
- optimal technical characteristics;
- strict compliance with the data stated in the description.
Here you will not find electric planes worth more than 10 thousand rubles as of 2021. But there will be no very cheap “toys” either. Only models worthy of being called the best, but not shocking with their cost.
Top 5. ZUBR ZR-950-82
The cheapest electric planer, costing about 10% less than its nearest competitor with similar characteristics.
- Average price: 3,500 rubles.
- Country Russia
- Width/depth of planing (mm): 82/3
- Revolutions per minute: 15000
- Power (W): 950
- Chamfering grooves: 1
- Weight (kg): 2.9
Before us is an electric planer with non-standard characteristics. It has a very high power, 950 watts, but at the same time a relatively low speed of 15 thousand. This suggests that the tool will cope with any wood, but on very hard materials it will most likely leave bumps, tearing out the fibers. The reviews also complain that the sole is not 110 mm, although the motor power allows it, but the depth of the quarter is definitely pleasing. 15 mm is the best result in our rating. You will also appreciate the rich equipment. The box contains everything you need for maintenance and minor repairs. Including drive belt and extra set of graphite brushes. In general, the price and quality are clearly correlated, although the manufacturer has a lot to strive for.
- Deep Quarter Fetching
- Rich equipment
- Cast aluminum sole
- Only 2 meters cable
- Weird RPM to power ratio
- Few grooves for chamfers
Top 4. BLACK+DECKER KW712
The electric planer is distinguished by reliable assembly and the use of high-quality parts. 3 years warranty from the manufacturer fully confirms this.
- Average price: 4,500 rubles.
- Country: USA
- Width/depth of planing (mm): 82/2
- Revolutions per minute: 17000
- Power (W): 650
- Chamfering grooves: 1
- Weight (kg): 3
Price quality is a ratio that is difficult to determine without personal long-term use. Fortunately, there are reviews and according to them we have the most reliable electric planer, he is not afraid of even serious loads. Of course, this is a home model. A power of 650 watts will not allow you to load it like in a workshop, and the sole is not 110 mm, but only 82 mm. But there are 17 thousand revolutions, and this already allows you to process hardwoods without disturbing their structure and without breaking the fibers. Despite the popularity and big name of the brand, the price here is very affordable. This is because the tool is outdated. However, this fact does not detract from the merits of the device, which is why it got into our rating.
- Reliable tool
- high speed engine
- High maintainability
- Overload protection
- Only 1 chamfering chute
- Ejection of sawdust only on the right side
Top 3. Interskol R-110/1100M
Electric planer with the possibility of permanent installation and technical characteristics corresponding to a small grinder.
- Average price: 6 900 rubles.
- Country Russia
- Width/depth of planing (mm): 110/3
- Revolutions per minute: 16000
- Power (W): 1100
- Chamfering grooves: 1
- Weight (kg): 4.5
Looking at the technical characteristics of this tool, it will not be clear to many why this planer even got into our rating. A heavy, excessively powerful tool whose parameters will simply not be needed. It can already be considered professional, but we are considering it specifically for the home. The fact is that it can and should work as a stationary grinding machine. For this, special fasteners are provided. Moreover, it will be quite difficult to work manually. The tool weighs almost 5 kilograms. Yes, and it works very loudly, which is not surprising, since the engine power is more than a kilowatt. In general, if you want to put a grinder in the garage, then here is the best way to save on your purchase.
- Very high power
- Aluminum housing for heat dissipation
- Stationary mount
- Poorly thought out ergonomics
- Big weight
- Very noisy work

Top 2. Bort BFB-850-T
An electric plane that has collected the most reviews on well-known marketplaces, as well as on specialized sites.
- Average price: 6,700 rubles.
- Country: Germany
- Width/depth of planing (mm): 82/3
- Revolutions per minute: 16500
- Power (W): 850
- Chamfering grooves: 3
- Weight (kg): 3
The Bort company cannot be called the most popular, but it was her electric planer that collected the most reviews on famous marketplaces. This is due to the fact that the tool combines such concepts as price quality. It is relatively inexpensive, but it shows an excellent result in terms of durability. Its power is 850 watts at 16.5 thousand revolutions. This allows you to work with almost any type of wood and perform complex manipulations. An excellent, reliable option for the home, but with such power, it would need a 110 mm sole, and it is only 82 mm here. A strange decision by the manufacturer, but the depth of planing is greater than that of competitors. In general, it deserves attention, thanks to which it got into our rating.
- high power
- Nice ergonomics
- Deep chamfering
- Cast aluminum outsole
- Fairly short network cable
- Narrow sole for such power

Many people associate Bosch with a professional tool. The company understands this and tries in every possible way to exploit this stereotype. Even this planer has a corresponding inscription on board, but you should not blindly believe it. In fact, this is a tool for the home.It has only 650 watts of power, although there are quite a lot of revolutions, which allows you to work even with hardwoods. But the main advantage is not even in the technical characteristics, but in the overall durability. This is the best, reliable option, which even under heavy loads will not fail. The maximum that can burn is brushes, but an additional set is already in the box.
- famous brand
- High build quality
- Includes brushes
- Comfortable grip
- Often counterfeited
