Ratings & Reviews for Bosch 15-Amp Adjustable MDF Router Table

Mounting plate does not fit 1617EVS fixed motor?

Description states fitment for 1617 series, but mounting holes do not align with 1617EVS fixed motor. Please reply for correction.

Open box poor quality

I’m guessing someone before me returned this, and then I got it. Fence and base are not flat. Base was scraped up. Also, I didn’t really expect so much plastic.

Assembly instructions are a bit confusing, but not too difficult. I was a bit concerned that the plastic frame sections might break or crack when tightening screws and bolts. Seems fairly solid and the metal table top is much better than my previous MDF router table top. This should be fine for my DIY projects, but if you're really into routing, you might want to look at the more expensive models.

Bosch 1181

Very good table assembly was fairly easy. Also bought the Bosch fixed router that fits it. Well made and I’m happy

Great quality

This is a nice router table. I have read about 28,000 reviews and compared router tables and this one is by far the best

Works Great

Bought this to use with my Dewalt DW618 router. Assembly took a little time, but was not difficult. The router mounted easily. Even with the plastic legs, the whole unit is solid. If you choose, the legs can be removed, and the table can be mounted to your own base or integrated into a workbench.

Router table

I was on the fence between purchasing this model and the newer model and settled on this one. The specifications stated it had a larger work station.

Great product at great price!

Christmas gift for my “handyman” son-in—law at a great price with additional Lowe’s Vets discount & Chase Visa’s Lowe’s rebate offer!

BEST FOR THE MONEY!

After lots of research, and highly debating on purchasing a MUCH higher priced (blue brand that starts with "K") free standing unit, I happily went with this unit. Yes, I could have built my own and incorporated it into my tablesaw, but I really wanted the metal top (for durability). However, the insert that your router attaches to is a bit rough, as some people have stated, and yes if you're not expecting it to grab your work piece as you're feeding it through, you will probably end up with a ...

Expected better

Been a fan of Bosch Power Tools for quite some time. Bought the 1617EVS router (my PC router is having problems) and then ordered the Bosch table to go with it. As I was assembling the router insert and trying to level it with the table top, found that the table top itself was not level, or evenly decked, itself. Both sides of the table top slope upwards to the cutout/insert area.Left side is actually worse than the right side. It's not atrocious, but I expected a better Quality Control check at...

i should have built my own...

if you dont have time to build your own, this bosch unit will suffice. i've only used it once so far; built a work bench on casters and bolted the table to it. it's too tall on a normal workbench, and too short to use on the floor. PROS: it has pretty much everything you'd expect in a router table: onboard power source for your router, 2 featherboards, groove on the top for another featherboard (tho you only get 2); small storage on the right for wrenches and throat plates, easy enough to put t...

Does it fit with Bosch PR20EVS?

Much to my surprise, the table appears NOT to hold the Bosch PR20EVS router? Is that correct? If yes, it should be mentioned on the description!!

Fantastic Table

Purchased this a month ago to compliment my Bosch router 1617EVSPK which was also purchased at Lowes about 6 months ago. The table arrived a day earlier than expected and packaging was great to protect from damage in shipping. After about 1.5 hours of assembly (took my time), the table was ready for mounting the router underneath. The assembly instruction manual can be a little confusing, but if you take your time, look at the diagrams, and read the instructions carefully, you shouldn't have ...

Great table for a great price

Assembly was pretty timely and adjusting the table was difficult but over it performs great!

Overall good

works very well with my router. Wish the storage was a little better. The dude pocket slips out really easily and everything falls out. Feather board and bit guard washers can get annoying to get placed when removing and adding. Works very well though, I have been happy with my purchase.

Bowed Router Insert Plate and Non-existent Bosch

Purchased this product from Lowes late October 2018 along with the 1617EVS router. It has been less than 5 months and the insert plate has bowed at the center. Took pictures and emailed Bosch. First representative told me the 1617evs router does not fit that router table insert, which was wrong. Second, after confirming that it does fit forwarded me to a technical rep I guess well its has been a month since initial contact and over 2 weeks since they forwarded my inquiry to a specialist and I am...

Fit in Ridgid R4512

The router table fit with minimal adaptation into the extension of my Ridgid R4512. The table is about 1/16" narrower than the fence rails so I placed a 5/16" washer on each bolt on the rear rail. Holes needed to be drilled on the long edge to match the extension wing and, if you want it to face to the right correctly, a 1" spacer board between the wing and router table. Otherwise, it fits perfectly reversed if you are only going to use the saw's fence with it. Lighter weight than the Be...

Bosch router table

Took longer to assemble than I expected and some parts that are made of plastic , should be made of metal , overall I think it will work just fine for my occasional projects.

Bosch 15-Amp Adjustable Router Table

5 Star Quality. A large aluminum table w/miter slot and a thick aluminum Adapter Plate that has pre-drilled holes for mounting many brands of routers. It has a very nice quality aluminum fence. The assembly manual is easy to understand and all parts fit together really good. The table is very sturdy. I ordered from Lowe's at a great price and it was delivered within 2 days.
