Ratings & Reviews for SKIL Mdf Router Table

Dont get it wet

Was a great router table until it rained and the table got a little wet. It doesnt have to get soaked just a small amount will destroy it. The table is made from an MDF which swells when it gets wet . The entire table is pretty much useless and I am searching for a replacement table . Preferably one that can get a little wet , especially because I live in South Florida and every day in the summer around 3 it will start to rain. The other issue I have with the table is the locking mechanism for t...

Worth Every Penny

This is a great router table for the price, I have put about 3 hours on it now and it does everything I need it to. The accessories are great and the assembly is easy. I can't recommend it enough. FYI I was using the Skil RT1322-00 router (also a great product).

Non-Adjustable

While using the table, I found that the pop-in spacers are not completely flush with the table top, which creates an issue with small parts. The manual did not provide a method to adjust the the spacers to match the table top. So, I suppose for the price, I guess it is okay for use with larger items.

Easily damaged

It's okay for the price, the bottom of the fence came damaged in the worst possible place and I had to sand down the rubber siding because it stuck up above the table top so far you couldn't feed lumber smoothly over it.

Fence issue

Just as others have reported. The 2 fence boards are off. About 1/32. I called Skil customer support. They said that this is a common complaint and they do not have any parts to correct the issue. Told me to take it back to Lowe’s for a refund. SAD! What I did was purchase a second unit, swap the fence boards to get two matching and returned the second unit. Painful loss of time but effective results. They should not be selling the unit if it is a known defect.

Great table for this DIY / beginner woodworker!

I bought this table on 7/9/2021 and started using it the next day. The setup was very simple. It helped that I saw a few videos on the Bosch RA1141 which is very similar. The table accepted my Ryobi Router R163K (same as R163G) with ease. I was able to get the router mounted and operating with a few minutes. This was much better than trying to run my router in my hands while the workpiece was mounted in my vise. It made making cupboard doors much easier and safer! I am very happy with this...

Not out of the box ready to use. May take some mod

Miter gauge would not slide in slot had to add thin washers to remedy issue. Holes for attaching Porter Cable router had to be modified for router to fit. Table not perfectly flat.

Wood workers aren't designing these

Bit hole too small, fence dust collection hole even smaller. My 2 3/4" bit will fit the router hole, hut the dust collection hole wont so it will only take i think avout a 1 3/4" bit. My 3 1/2" bits forget it

Works great with my Skil RT1323 router!

Bought a Skil RT1323 router and found I needed more control so I bought the Skil xx900 router table to go with it. It works fine. I recommend this one.

Once I got it set up it was easy to use. It made my project, a bed footboard, a lot easier to make.

small shop perfect

Great router table for my small shop. Very stable and top is true Decent accesories

Worth the price.

Does everything I needed. Very satisfied with this purchase.

Waste of money

Everything is so cheap that I am unable to get fair results. To much movement with the back plate and guides. The router itself doesn't have enough power to even go slow through the woods. I wasted my money and lots of time.
