Poor piece of equipment!
Would Not RecommendTerrible product. Received as a gift. Junk. Don't buy!! Not to mention Lowe's refusal to give refund in order for me to buy a better router. No more Bosch tools for me. No more tools to be bought from Lowe's.

Great for a year and two weeks….then paper weight!
Would Not RecommendI loved this little router until I didn’t. I bought this router in November of 22 and the first week of December of 23 it started surging/dragging and then wouldn’t come on at all. I checked the brushes (light use) and they were fine. Blew out the housing and plugged back in. Same problem. Very intermittent like it had a short. It is literally 2 weeks out of warranty and I had to finish some Christmas gifts so I put it in a drawer and bought another Bosch palm router (ANOTHER Huge disappointment...

Not the best
Would Not RecommendThis tool needs an update! Bosch mises the mark all the way. The switch is hard to get to, the visibility around the router base is obscured by the full aluminum plate, and worst of all is the ridiculous way they set up adjusting the depth! A serious time waster. I returned it, and I suggest you choose a different one.

Best palm router under $200
Would RecommendIs it the best router in the world? No. But it’s the best one I’ve tried in the price range. It’s well built, quiet, and has a decent adjustable base.

Failed before even touching the wood.
Would Not RecommendDrove 1/2 hour to Lowes to get this because they hosed me on my on line order (delayed, no reason). Got this and took it home. Box in good shape, never opened. Inserted my bit, made my depth adjustment, locked the housing, gave the unit a spin by hand and then plugged it in. Turned on power heard a 'pop' in the unit and it failed on the spot. NO POWER to unit. Plug engages in socket, socket has power, switch rocks and feels like a "solid" engagement. Brushes are seated and clean.
