Direct Tools is taking 30% off certain items (starting today 6/17/22) for Father's Day. This is the 13in. thickness planer from RIDGID, on sale for $280 which normally retails for $400. Don't forget to register for their Lifetime Service Agreement within 90 days of your purchase (even with slow shipping from DTO, you'll make this deadline..)
Features- Chip impeller dust removal system to effectively pull wood chips from the workpiece for improved cuts and a cleaner work area
- Sure-cut carriage lock to lock the cutter head to help minimize snipe at the end of the workpiece
- Large infeed/outfeed table extensions for extra workpiece support to help eliminate snipe
- Steel top with glides for extra wide area to easily stage your material for its next cut
- Easy-to-reach, adjustable, top-mounted handle with 1/16 in. per revolution precision
- Soft-Touch controls for improved comfort and grip
- Ind-I-Cut depth gauge for instantly measuring the cutting depth before each pass
- 8-adjustable repeat-a-cut depth stops to precisely plane multiple workpieces to consistent, desired thickness for repetitive tasks
Details

I bought a couple refurbished, and a Blem a few weeks back.
And from the items I received, one of the Ryobi (Refurb) and 1 of the Ridgid (Blem) items that I got, were DOA.
I emailed them, with all the info, and they told me I had to go thru warranty with both items.... meaning there is a zero exchange policy.
I've never bought anything, anywhere, that I received broken that did not do an exchange right away.
So, be warned, if you buy from DTO, know that you will be gambling. And if you have to do a warranty on Ryobi, and especially Ridgid, it will be another level of frustration.
So, on a higher dollar item like this, RUN away from Direct Tools Outlet.
(Fyi: Home Depot has the Dewalt with the blades and feed tables for $599 right now.)

Dewalts planer (The 735 at least) has been the best of the "Big Box Store Brands" planers for years. It's a good enough planer of you are a DIY'er, and it's 100x better than the Ridgid.

The times I have done it, it has been very quick for both my HD and DTO purchases. So no issues to report here with my LSA registrations
Got my registered within a half hour. Submit the details and do a web chat. what are you even on about?
Same as the other commenter. The only time I had trouble at all was registering a vacuum until I learned LSA for vacuums and plumbing tools is through a different site.
Did you have an actual problem or do you just not trust it?
