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

Excellent Safety Ergonomics

Got this my Metabo cordless HPT router about 14 months ago for my birthday when Lowes was having a special sale on it. Now I have several cordless trim routers, had a Milwaukee I no longer have, I have the Dewalt & the Makita cordless trim routers. The cordless trim router is such a versatile tool, and having several with different bits for different applications is nice. I can say there’s pros & cons to almost any tool. What has made the Metabo stand out to me is the ergonomics of it, which rel...

Amazing little router

Had this for about a month now. Have been able to handle everything I've thrown at it. Soft to hardwood. Plenty of power packed in a tiny package

Light but powerful !

I own many different routers, but I was looking for something convenient and lightweight. Decided to go with the Metabo router that is extremely light but powerful. Highly recommend this tool. Would not change my decision at all!

My first Metabo HPT purchase led to whole work van

My first Metabo HPT purchase led to whole work van full of Metabo. Honestly I purchased 1 of these for my 1st Dewalt stocked work van and loved it. Bought another for my dewalt sto ked home shop and loved it. Bought another work van and bought another one for it. At the time Metabo had a battery promotion going on and I like the green router so much that I purchased over 3k worth of Metabo tools. So far, everything works very well. I used to use paslode impulse for my guns now it Metabo. Metabo ...

Great trim router

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using this in the field and use it mostly for round overs and 45 deg chamfers. Excellent battery life, holds adjustment very well, easy and quick to set up.

Best router and all the torque!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my new home that we are currently build. We do not have power to the house and I needed to do trim work and set door hinges, this router had no issues powering through all the wood.

Trim router

Nice size easy to handle light illuminates work nicely

Best Trim router on the market!

Metabos HPT nailed it with this trim router! -best visibility compared to ALL it's competitors with a well lit base. - metal body. No brainer when choosing between brands. Comfortable grip you can easily wrap your hand around for ultimate control when routing & mortising for hardware! With a 36V batter you'll have juice for days. But a 3ah batter will still power this beast for hours and hours non stop and at just over 3 pounds it's extremely light for what it is! Base plate slides of...

Great trim router

I purchased this trim router several months ago and I love it. The ergonomics are fantastic and it work like a champ. There have been several times I used it out of convenience instead of my full-size corded router and it was able to handle those bigger jobs with ease.

Hot performer

This is a great little performer! Can run circles around my dewalt, no pun intended!

Great Product!

I bought this router this week. Very compact and very comfortable to use!

Perfect for small flush cut jobs

I’ve been using this to cut out niches in foam board for my showers. Works great and stays fairy clean with a vacuum attached

Handy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This router come in handy. Small and powerful it gets the job done. It will use up a 1.5ah battery fast. I would recommend a 3ah or higher for continuous use.

Great little trimmer/router

I have had this for about 3 months. It is good for trimming countertops and rounding edges. It is nice to not have to worry about a cord. It has good balance if you press down on it. It slides easily.
