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

Neat Trimmer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this after becoming frustrated with the switch on another manufacturer's trim router, which requires you to push 2 buttons to turn the tool on, then locks it out after a short period of time. The switch on this is much more intuitive & while 2 buttons still need to be pushed to turn it on, one acts as a trigger of sorts. Aside from the nice controls, it has enough power for what it is. Depth adjustments are easy, & the LED light is a n...

Sweet little router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this trim router for a few months now and I'm really happy with the performance and convenance of it. It out performs my old craftsman corded router and it's much easier to use because of its compact size. Highly recommend

Great router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love how compact this router is Much easier to use than my full size router

Great little tool

I bought this to use when I didn't want to drag out the corded beast. I find myself reaching for it more and more. The bit is a cinch to change and the light weight and easy adjustability makes it quick and simple to use.

Great performance

I purchased this router in order to hang doors. This made the job go super fast and I was able to hang a slab door every 30 minutes. This router cut the doors like butter. Highly recommend any of the metabo hpt 18v cordless tools.

Awesome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love working with this, has excellent control and power

Powerful compact router.

This is my first router and since all my power tools are Metabo it's was a no brainer when I was needing a router. So easy to use even for someone who is new to routers. I'm going to buy the 1/2 inch router in the near future for bigger projects.

Fabulous router

I've been using this trim router for six months now and I'm really impressed. I use it mainly for rounding off edges and cutting out openings in plywood. Works great. Just make sure you keep your fingers out of the collet access opening. Router has no handles like my old Porter Cable.

Pure simplicity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a door contractor, this light weight and easy to use router makes work easy.

laminate trimmer

Great tool. Spindle lock is hard to use with clear shield in place. I going to buy a bigger battery

Been a great Replacement

I bought this trim router thia summer to replace a corded trim router I have. I have used it a couple of times and it has worked perfectly and I only ran down the 18V battery once, but I had spares.

Great compact tool

I bought this compact router about two months ago and this little thing is a beast no issues it has been working great

This thing rips

Power and weight with adjustability Cut sheeting Rip corners Cut bevel And for a long time, swap from 18/36 Run all day on a 2.5 36 multi

Great router!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am loving my metabo routers, especially since it comes with some great adds you have to buy separately with other companies, or they don't have. Excellent router compared to the dewalt XR.

Light, powerful and easy to operate

I bought this as a trim router for edging work pieces. Some standout features: easy-sliding depth gauge, safety on/off switches, dust collection attachments and edge guide. Love how light the device is, enabling good control while in action. Equipped with a brake and bright lighting, I’ve enjoyed operating this router.

Amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the light weight with the 18v batteries, yet the long life with the 36v. Best router I’ve had.

Perfect!

Bought this a year ago and it is amazing how long it lasts on a charge. Cannot see working without it.
