I was a little worried that this wouldn’t have the power for a lovely smooth finish, but I was completely wrong.
It’s a little marvel. As good as any corded palm router, and not having a mains cable is so handy for routing in situ.
I treated myself to the full boxed set. I have only used the plunge accessory base so far, but I’m sure I will use the others at some stage.
The finish is gorgeous, the aluminium body is as smooth as you could hope for. The adjustment lever is easy to open but rock solid when closed.
The LED’s work well and give great visibility.
It has a variable speed wheel. I tend to use it just backed off the top speed, and it flies through all woods.
Don’t spoil the party by using cheap awful bits.
I only use Trend black range and together they make a beautiful winning combination.
I’ve owned it for over a year and a half now and I still think it’s one of the best tools I own.
Overall, this is a fantastic router that can easily replace any handheld corded router.
Highly recommended.
I hope you found this review helpful.
