Thoughtfully made

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Between the plunge and fixed base, it has all you might need. very well made.

Great router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought km12vc liked it enough to buy a second. Mounted it on my router table.

Just what I needed. More than I expected.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked this up as a medium-power router to use by hand after I decided to permanently mount my old one in my table. This one has plenty of power, and the plunge base is as smooth as any I've used. Good product.

Strong and mighty

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this router a few months ago and it is awesome. Comes in a hard case which I like since my shop is in a basement. This router is pretty powerful and smooth enough for me to carve in mortises and do some router plaining on rough slabs. So far so good and I have no complaints about this router. It is all I need for my small shop and more. I definitely recommend you give this router a spot in your shop.

Great price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purched for sign making using wood & templates run smoth.

Best router ever.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned many routers that claim ease of use and performance. This router lives up to its claims. Simply the best combo router I have ever used. I have been a woodworker for over 30 years and appreciate the effort that went into making this a perfect tool. So much so that I rushed to buy a second one just in case they stop making this one and it some how comes up missing or breaks. Perfect.

Great product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have many different tools but this thing is my favorite to use. Still learning how to use it properly but man I love my router. Always brings a smile to my face when it's time to route!

I love this router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When my desalt router broke I bought this at Lowe’s. Was I surprised. I couldn’t be happier. Never gonna switch. Metabo is the way to go

Awesome tool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Awesome tool From the first time I use it.it works and does exactly what I want, all the different options that are on there makes the job easier to do!!

All in one package

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I picked this up a few months back. This router has all the power one will need unless you are running shapers. With both bases, collets, and guides this is your one stop shop for a hand held router.

Great power!! Sturdy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this for more then a year and probably used for 200+ hrs with no issues...well made great power.

Best router I've used

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this in November to replace the different brand router that no longer could hold the bits safely. I love this router. Very quiet, feels good on hands. two bases are very convenient as i don't have too much room to store many tools. Some things to note: if you want to mount it to the routing table, you will need to remove the plastic base, there are no separate screw holes as some other bases have. Also, depth is controlled by rotating th...

Does everthing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this for a couple of months and I am very pleased with it's ability to handle every job I"ve given it; it is reasonably quiet, powerful and has handled small and large jobs; just like the 10" miter saw, the quality is evident and I have no doubt it will last a very long time

Totally worth it!

Great for my first project. Awesome tool. Will be using it for many years.

Excellent router with plunge base, great value!

Very nice router, with a very capable plunge base, plus a very complete set of accessories, and even a very sturdy case. What a deal! Before receiving the router, I read and researched issues related to the plunge base, how the plunge mechanism is not smooth and "jumps". The unit I received had no such problem. So I'm very happy with the purchase. One thing I wish the unit has is an LED light.

Metabo Router

This Metabo router is exactly what I was looking for. Worth every penny! It took a while to get but I am happy with it.

Metabo HPT purchase

Metabo HPT is a very complete tool. it comes in a case and very well protected when delivered. I got mine shipped to Florida and from there to my home country, it arrived safely, excellent value for money. Easy tool to handle. Happy with my purchase.

I'm new to using routers, especially those with plungers. The first thing i found that I liked was the setting wheel, nice. The one down side I'm not really found of is when I mount it in my BOSCH router table it's a bit of a task to change bits, you have to remove the motor from the frame then put in a new bit, but all-in-all it's a very solid router.
