Cutech 40160HB 6-Inch Spiral Cutterhead Benchtop Jointer

A benchtop spiral jointer from a small company that woodworkers keep recommending, largely for the service behind it. It goes head to head with the Grizzly G0946 and tends to arrive better calibrated. Worth a look if you want carbide inserts on a bench.

Grizzly G0945 6-Inch Benchtop Jointer

A first jointer for someone who wants to square up small stock without giving a floor machine any space. It bolts to a bench, weighs 44 pounds, and does fine on short boards. If you already know you'll be flattening long hardwood, you'll outgrow it quickly.
