If your looking for a Plane for a Shooting Board then this is the one! Its excellent on end grain with little force needed. The adjustable Toe is a great help and its easy to achieve the best mouth needed. The Depth adjustment wheel was a bit fiddly but that's probably because it's compensating for the low angle blade, but it's a good trade off. Its a all-round excellent Plane, well worth the money.

I've bought lots of planes over the last couple of years. Some in need of restoration. Some 'cheap' that needed fettling to get to good order. This one was different. It was ready and set with a flat sole, sharp iron (decent polish on both side of the cutting edge capable of 1/1000th of an inch cut) and good to go. It's a thick iron too. Totally happy with this purchase.

Received the item with a chuf mark from the assembly line. Material quality is ok for the price. Setup required was about an hours worth of fine tuning. However the design fails in the adjustment controls that are fiddly and awkward to use making repeated adjustment a pain. If you can afford a higher quality plane I would not recommend this one. It will be ok for my needs and budget.

I own lots of planes including lie nielsen this is my first Stanley Sweetheart. Apart from the finish on the handles I can’t fault it it works extremely well straight from the box. Perhaps if I had tried these sooner I wouldn’t have so many others! Good tool, good value.
