Bosch 1617EVSPK 2-1/4-Horsepower Router Combination Pack from Bosch Price: $200.00 Customer Review:  If you were looking at getting a combo kit now is your chance to get a 2 HP unit instead of the 1.5 HP units. The softstart and self center bits work great both as a plunge router as well as a fixed base and the 2 HP soft start and mag body makes it easy to control as well as light weight. The 2... |

Porter-Cable 895PK 2-1/4 HP Fixed Base, Plunge Base Kit with Height Adjuster from Porter-Cable Price: $269.99 Customer Review: I was leaning heavily towards the Makita RF1101 Kit but then I noticed the new Router from P/C. I got one since this had all the features I was looking for. Here are my findings. 1. Surprisingly quiet <<80 DB @10K rpm, a little louder at 23K. Soft start is nice. |

DeWalt DW618B3 2-1/4 HP 3-Base Router Kit from DeWalt Price: $279.99 Customer Review: Well, this is my first "yellow" tool. I am a "blue" tool guy but I did not like some of the features on the new Makita routers, they are excellent tools with rave reviews but I did not like the entire motor turning when you adjust the depth. The problem was also compounded that nobody made a... |

Porter-Cable 8529 2 HP Variable Speed Plunge Router from Porter-Cable Price: $219.99 Customer Review: When I decided that my old Craftsman 1/2 horsepower router wasn't meeting my needs any longer, I started shopping for a router principally to be used in a router table. Ideally, I wanted a setup to provide the functionality of the "router lift" systems, but preferably without the high cost. Not... |

DeWalt DW618PKV 2-1/4 HP Electronic Variable Speed Fixed Base / Plunge Router Combo Kit from DeWalt Price: $239.99 Customer Review: I bought this router about 2 months ago, and waited before giving this review to get some time using it. I'm a new woodworker, having started about 9 months ago, so I only have used one other router (a craftsman) so I can't compare and contrast for you, however I have to say that I'm very impressed... |

Porter-Cable 894PK 2-1/4 HP GripVac Base, Plunge Base Kit from Porter-Cable Price: $269.99 Customer Review: I bought this set mostly for use in a Bench Dog RT150 router table with the fixed base. Wanted the GripVac base for occasional "out of the box" use where the vac feature would be nice. The fixed base/motor work REALLY well in the RT150. The motor release and height adjust controls are very... |

DeWalt DW621K 2 HP VS Electronic Plunge Router Kit with Carrying Case and Universal Edge Guide from DeWalt Price: $229.99 Customer Review: Absolutely a great all purpose plunge router kit! As stated in other reviews this is not the best choice if you are focusing on primary use in a router table because of the on/off switch location. But, everything else is great! I'm very happy with the quality of construction and performance given me... |

Bosch 1619EVS 3-1/4-Horse power Electric Plunge Router from Bosch Price: $319.99 Customer Review: Superb Router! I have mine in a router table. It handles everything extremely well - from the smallest bit to the largest panel cutter. It is relatively quiet, and never bogs down with the electronic speed control. Soft start is excellent, although I don't use mine out of the table much. The depth... |

DeWalt DW625 3 HP Variable Speed Electronic Plunge Router from DeWalt Price: $229.99 Customer Review: Anyone using this router to do hand held plunge routing better have a strong grip! It's powerful. Even with the soft-start technology, the torque is amazing. The dust collection attachment worked great until it broke. I see why it's made of clear plastic, to enable viewing the bit at work, but it... |

DeWalt DW621 2HP Plunge Router from DeWalt Price: $199.99 Customer Review: The reason I bought this model was for the built-in dust collection through the handle.

DeWalt DW616PK 1-3/4 HP Fixed Base / Plunge Router Combo Kit from DeWalt Price: $199.99 Customer Review: What a great router. I purchased a Porter-Cable 2hp plunge router 97529 and thought it would be great. Boy was I wrong, junk, that's all I have to say about that thing. Although this router is 1hp it acts like the big boys. I've used this router with a 3" panel bit on maple and it... |

Porter-Cable 694VK 1-3/4 HP Variable Speed Router Kit from Porter-Cable Price: $199.00 Customer Review:  I've been replacing my bargain Sears tools with those of better quality. Couldn't be happier with my other assortment of PC tools (nailers, saws, and drill). The router comb is definately nice, but not nearly as big of a step as I expected over a $59 Sears router. Depth adjustment is definately a... |

Hitachi M12V 3-1/4 HP Electronic Variable Speed 1/2" Plunge Router from Hitachi Price: $164.00 Customer Review: This is truly a Clydesdale among the industry 3HP+ router workhorses. Built like a tank, yet nimble enough to be comfortably used with the Leigh dovetail jig. The soft start is a tremendous help for this type of operation. It is a heavy but well-balanced machine, which is an asset when maximum... |

Bit changing is teriffic. This is the ideal table mounted router. Great height adjustment, etc. Downsides: The single noisiest tool in the shop, heavy jerk on starting, and mine managed to... |

Porter-Cable 75300 Height Adjustment Knob for 7539 Plunge Router from Porter-Cable Price: $24.99 Customer Review: This knob is good for table use, but unfortunately, you have to remove the height indicator, and you still need to release the lock. It is helpful for fine adjustments, but it is still pretty hard to use. I use it occasionally, but I still think it was a pretty good buy for the times that I need to... |

Grizzly H2854 1 H.P. Router from Grizzly Customer Review: This is a well built router but I find the 1.5" plunge depth is not enough for most of the routing operation I do. The coil spring is too tense (which facilitates plunge operation) so I cut an inch of it to make it a little smoother. The dust collection thing looks great but it reduces plunge depth... |
