I have used this particular Bosch Router in my countertop business for the last 18 years. These routers will last on average 4-5 years with every day use. Easy to change out bits, light weight, and very dependable with very smooth cuts. Highly recommend to any one who installs plastic laminate!

I love this little router. I use it in place of my larger one a lot. It's easy to handle, lightweight, changes bits easily and is great for a quick board rounding. It was invaluable when I built my deck. I've owned it over 5 years with no trouble.
