Ratings & Reviews for Metabo HPT MultiVolt 1/4-in Variable Speed Brushless Trim Router

Great small router, lots of power.

Have owned for 5 months now. Have used on hardwoods several times. Plenty of power to get the job done. Smooth and accurate. Great balance and fits in the hand very comfortably.

Love the price!

I like how lightweight this router is! I love the ergonomics and how the I/O switches are placed. Runs great with a larger amp battery.

Love this router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great router. easy micro adjustments. Not only can it do nice edge profiles, but it's powerful enough to do heavier duty work like dados and rabbets. get one!

Best of Breed!

If you need a trim router or want to replace a corded one, run, do not hesitate to purchase this little beauty. I would have gladly paid considerably more for the power, ease of use, and ability to use both 18V and 36MV batteries. As with all Metabo HPT tools, the ergonomics and value cannot be matched. This is, by far, the best cordless trim router on the market.

Good router.

Purchased this to replace a Ryobi trim router. Much lighter, easier to handle, more features.

Nice router

I’ve used this router for lots of edge rounding tasks. It’s so nice to reach for a small, lightweight cordless tool for a quick corner easing job. I really like the button layout. I usually grab it so my thumb hits the power button and my finger lands nicely on the “on/off” button. It took a bit of getting used to, but ultimately I like the button layout of the metabo hpt more than the others I’ve tried, Power wise, it’s great. Just understand that it’s a small tool. Even the manual tel...

Great trim router with plenty of power

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this as a grab and go solution to compliment my full sized router, but it has become the one I go to the most. It is super simple to use and I have not had a job yet that it could now power through. Overall quite pleased!

Nice router

I love the compact size, it does go through the battery pretty quick. Also the controls take some getting used to.

Great little router

Have had it few months... And it has worked wonderfully, from cutting hinge slots for door hings to trimming edges for countertops. Great tool nice power for a lot of uses.

Nice little router

I don't own one of these but I've used one several times & it's a nice router. It's very smooth to operate. It is just a hair under powered in harder wood but not enough for a deal breaker.

Works Great!

This thing is great! Bought it a few months ago and have used it on a handful of projects. Love the soft start and the absence of the power cord. Very pleased.

Amazing quality

Looks and feels like the yellow or red brands. Lots of control and power

Great Control and Power from a Compact Router

I was hesitant at getting this trim router at first because I only have the 36v batteries and I was concerned that it would be too big because of it. And I'm thinking that I may not need the 36v plunge router because I would probably only do very little to occasional routing jobs (plus it costs more and not available at my local retailer at the time). I'm glad I chose the trim router though, because the form factor made it easy to hold, control and store in my small garage workshop. I'm not ...

Compact power

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Worked well for baseboard, making small shaker cabinet doors, very nice tool

So smoooth

Owned this tool about 2 months and am amazed how comfortable and smooth it is fits the hands perfectly and live the on off switch button works super well and well placed on tool

Must have

This little guy is .......well quite Franky, its nothing short of impressively amazing. I can't believe the amount of power, ease of use, and loaded with features from such a small, portable and cost efficient, not to mention Cordless trim router. Stop sleeping on metabo hpt and go buy this thing today.

You gotta use this trim router to believe it.

I needed a cordless trim router for some time now. The Matabo just seemed like the natural choice after purchasing and using the 36V cordless plunge/fixed base router. This is really a sweet addition to my router collection. Plenty of power, feels good in the hands, and was sold at a really good price.

Great little router

I just used this router for the first time today and I liked it a lot. I used it to round over an edge all around a table top. I found it to be comfortable in the hand, very smooth and relatively quiet. With a 3.0Ah battery it’s nice and light too. Bit changing is made simple with the spindle lock and included wrench. I think the fine adjust rack and pinion could be a little finer, but it works well. I was able to dial in my round over bit no problem but it took two or three tries as I ove...
