What Customers Are Saying
The cordless router has a compact and lightweight design that makes it easy to handle, with features like adjustable speed, soft start, and LED lights that enhance its usability. Users report good power and performance, though some felt it lacked the power of larger, corded models. A few customers noted issues with the depth adjustment mechanism. Overall, the router appears suitable for light to medium-duty tasks, but may not be suitable for more demanding, professional-level work.

Would Not Recommendthe router seems powerful enough two problems however. The depth lock is difficult to tighten and is hard for it to secure itself. The bit wanders downward when in use. the base area is so closed in that it's difficult to keep your eye on the bit while you're using it.

Arrived HEAVILY used and delivery was awful
Would Not RecommendVery clearly not a new product. Lowes same day delivery didn't make it anywhere near the door, to the point that the router could be seen/snagged by anybody passing by on the street or sidewalk. Terrible delivery, followed by a used tool that I now have to return to the store....which was the whole point of getting delivery! I wouldn't recommend Lowe's in general at this point...

Very lightweight and easy to use. The 1/4” size is perfect for those small jobs. The variable speed helps to keep accurate.

Awesome router
Would RecommendI like the variable speed soft start brushless motor. It runs extremely smooth with plenty of power. There is very little vibration in my hands when using it. Just a nice solid tool. Wish I would have bought it sooner.
