5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice tool, February 7, 2009

By	David Hilbert - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the first router I've owned, although not the first I've used, so interpret my comments in that light. I've been impressed with how well-built and easy to use this tool is. The height adjustment works well, changing bases is easy, and all the features seem to work as designed. Changing bits is a two-wrench operation but for my uses that's not really an issue. The case is sturdy, and has storage for all kinds of accessories, including many that don't come with the kit. The case is huge, however, so be prepared to give up some serious space in your workshop

5.0 out of 5 stars great tool, January 6, 2009

By	K. R. Boucher "Weekend Wood Warrior" (NC ,USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This router is a powerful piece of equipment, quite versatile and rugged. The plunge feature is smooth and easy to use; highly ergonomic in design. The fixed base is comfortable and easily handled with one hand using a small round over bit. Instructions are easy to read and follow. The carrying case, however, is large and cumbersome, difficult to store. Looking forward to years of good service from this high quality product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Tool, April 16, 2009

By	Craig Barker (Rocklin, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I went in to buy a Bosch and found this kit. This is a great tool. I am an intermediate woodworker-it is a hobby of mine. My daughter is a TA in woodshop at her school so maybe it runs in the family. Have used other routers. I love the palm grip. Gives you great control. Changing out the the bases is a snap, no tools required. The other routers I have used in the past require two wrenches to change bits so it was easy on this tool. The micro adjustment for depth works very well. Power switch is right where it should be. First Milwaukee tool for me. Only minor annoyance is that the case is huge. Overall, I am very pleased.
