The Metabo HPT M3612DA 36V Cordless Plunge Router has been a solid addition to my home tool collection, especially for woodworking and general DIY projects where I need precision and portability without dealing with cords. As someone working out of a garage and backyard setup, the cordless feature is a big deal. Being able to grab the router, take it to wherever I’m working—whether that’s a deck, workbench, or even outside—and not worry about power outlets or extension cords has made a noticeabl...

Great Router with feature no one else has
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The is a great router with all the features you want in a quality plunge router. Plus is has a special feature no one else has. I bought the corded adapter so now I can use either batteries or a cord. Batteries need charging. No problem, I keep going with the corded adapter. Fabulous option.

Best cordless plunge router on the market
I LOVE this router! its significantly more compact than other plunge routers I've used. It has enough power for dados and rabbets, and anything else you can ask of it. I use mine cordless, but the ability to run it corded with the optional adapter is a great feature as well. I would buy this again several times over. Highy recommend!

Great addition to my router collection
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I caught this router on sale about a year ago and absolutely love it. The mobility and power make it a go to for so many tasks where I might have used another tool. All my other routers are fixed base so the plunge feature saves so much time. I made a jig specifically for this router to make dados so I don’t have to set up my table saw. I had to shave down the top rail of a gate and was able to pop on the edge guide and do it without removing t...

Cordless freedom!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cordless freedom! Take anywhere. Plenty of power. Smooth plunging. I like the placement of the handles and trigger. Being 36v, it can be plugged in to 120 if you have the adapter, the best of both worlds!

Plenty of power versus corded routers
We are very impressed with the Metabo HPT M3612DA router. It has become our primary router for cutting operations in our manufacturing process. Our corded routers are now sitting on the shelf. We cut Lexan sheet material into pieces that are 200-400” long x 20-40” wide. We need to make several cuts on a single piece of material to produce a product that is straight and dimensionally correct. We typically make 20 or more 30 foot long cuts in a single shift. Some of our observations are: ...

Powerful, smooth, efficient
Honestly this thing surprised me. I run a full time woodworking shop and do a considerable amount of router work. Everything from dado's, edge profiles, mortises, pattern reproduction, etc. So far I've done edge profiling with a half inch roundover, all in one pass. This router will also run a 1-1/2" mortising bit with quarter inch passes without flinching. With the way this router is set up, I don't think it would be practical to use in a router table though. Honestly, I only have one complaint...

Metabo HPT M3612DAQ4
In many ways this is a home run -- truly knocked out of the park. In other's it's a swing & a miss. The pluses: World's 1st 2HP, 1/2" collet, plunge router and it's astonishingly light weight & small. The negatives: I would have prefered the screw mounts for the Template Guide Adapter (323-272) and the Dust Collector (339-380) be on the Sub Base not the router's body. In my opinion placing anything that decreases the usable diameter of the base is a detriment. Yes, I realize the maximum re...

5 Decision Makers
I make my decisions on tools I want in my shop based on 5 key factors. 1. Ease of use 2. Features 3. Adaptability 4. Bang for buck 5. Placement within a shop 1. Ease of use - 5 star heck 10 star. This cordless router is stunning. The strength you get with the tool itself and 2.5 Amp hour battery it comes with is equivalent to if not surpassing a corded 2.25hp. 2. Features - 5 star. This router comes with perfect and I mean perfect placement of the plunge tightener right behind t...

Powerful Router!
I am so impressed every time I use this router! The feel of it in my hands is amazing. From the ergonomics to the balance and ability to control the unit. I first had doubts, but not for long. I have used this to route everything from yellow pine to hickory and the router keeps on delivering through them all. This router while cutting through hickory, was just impressive. My corded router from another competitor is a 3 hp version, and it bogs down at times. Not this Metabo. This is a bad boy......
