I have been using this table for about a week and a half and just love it. Very good quality, it does a nice job on the work and it is easy to set up and use. I recommend this I think you will be happy with it.The only improvement if any is to give the accessory compartment a better fitting panel maybe with a catch so it stays in place.

I bought a Skil Router to use with this. I could not get it to work. I bought the Bosch and it fit together. I have not had time to use it yet.

Works great but adjusting the mounting plate is more trouble than it’s worth

I've never used a handheld router before and was really concerned about the safety of using one, so I decided it would be safer to use one in table form.Since Bosch tools (or anything else with the Bosch label for that matter) are generally regarded as good quality, I opted to go with this setup along with a Bosch router.It's probably just my learning to use the tool, but I can't seem to get things leveled out and I always end up hanging up a piece while running it through the router. I hope with more practice I can overcome this.Also adjusting the depth is a bit of a pain, again probably learning curve.Lastly, I'd say I "wasted" money on the lift included in this kit I didn't know I could re-use the router base that my router came with. That said, I found it easier to be able to remove the router motor from the lift while on the table and re-attach it to the base that came with the router, should I ever decide I want to use it freehand.

I had a router table and it did a good job but the fences on this one are much easier to adjust than the one I had. I got the adjustable lift kit and it works well. Probably better ones out there but I haven’t used a really nice one so I don’t have much to compare with. I don’t like the dust collection on the bench top. So much dust comes out the bottom that it makes a bigger mess than any of my other tools. A back to the bench would be a good idea to have included. I built a back with a corner cutout for the cords. This keeps dust from going behind the router but I still get a lot out of the front. Also the on/off is kind of flimsy. Not a real complaint but others have noted it in reviews and I agree. Overall I like it and use it often.
