Ratings & Reviews for Kobalt 1/4-in and 1/2-in 12 -Amp 2 -HP Variable Speed Fixed Router

Kobalt Router and Router Table

Easy setup. Good quality for the price. Owners Manual was a little confusing but with patience, I was able to figure it out.

Kobalt being a strong contender for new woodworkin

Great price for this entry level table and router.

You get your money's worth for sure

Great router, worth the money for sure, works as great as other brand routers.

Good entry level table & router setup!

Router table assembly is really straight forward and easy to complete. Comes with all necessary tools for the job. Plastic legs are relatively thick and provide a sturdy base. Table top had an ever so slight bow to it (roughly 1/32" - 1/16"), most likely will not affect general use. I appreciate the start/stop switch on the front of the unit. Aluminum fence is decently made and I like the adjustments in the front to adjust gap around the router bit. Dust port on the back is big and does a great ...

Good buy for the price

Picked up the Lowe’s router table with the 15 amp router and I’m impressed so far. The router is powerful, the fence came squared out of the box, and the setup is simple but effective. I still have some more precise tools coming to fully test the accuracy, but for the price and ease of use, it’s been solid.

Great router table

This is a great router table kit. I’m mainly using this for making dice boxes and small pieces of furniture. I really like that the top is aluminum and it comes with two feather boards plus a miter gauge. The router table has plenty of power for my projects and good dust collection. It seems like a solid tool for my projects.

Great product at a great price

I’ve been really happy with this Kobalt router/router table combo so far. It has plenty of power and the variable speed feature actually makes a noticeable difference depending on what you’re working on. The depth adjustments are easy to dial in, and the router feels lighter than I expected without feeling cheap. I also like that it comes ready for both 1/4-in and 1/2-in bits, so I didn’t have to buy extra parts. The dust collection setup works pretty well too, especially with the router table a...

Good for DIY, not going to replace a pro table

Got this for small stuff when my Freud router and table are overkill. Lining up the depth is a little tricky but overall it works well. For the price, the table is better than I expected, and if the router fails, I can install one of my other routers, although it has worked well so far. I also got it to use with my 18V Milwaukee cordless router when a plug is not close by. Works well with the cordless, just be careful as it is tricky to turn on and off, I will only do that occasionally and very ...

Built Perfect Kitchen Drawers with This Combo

I'm a DIY kind of guy, and I wanted to build new kitchen drawers for my wife. This router/table combo turned out to be an excellent choice. It was easy to assemble, and it made perfect groove cuts and rabbet joints for the drawer corners. The project came out so well that now I’m already looking for something else to build for my garage. This combo is a great option for anyone tackling DIY woodworking projects that require a router. I’ve worked with tools for a long time, and I can honestly sa...

Router table including a 2 HP router.

Haven't had a chance to use this yet but what a bargain - router table with a 2 HP router included!

This is a versatile tool and a great value.

Great value for a must needed tool.

Comprehensive and complete kit

This kit contains everything you need to get up and running! Got this on a deal too…price was way to good to pass up.

Great combo

The router table combo is a really great value with a solid aluminum top and fence. The variable speed router is strong enough for my home woodworking projects, much more powerful than a cordless router. This is nice to add rounded edges for furniture. I like the vacuum attachment to keep the sawdust to a minimum when using the router. There isn't a bag for the attachments/accessories, so I just use a spare bag from my other tools to store them. Great value!

Better than expected - great value - good purchase

Honestly I wasn’t expecting too much from this, but the price was very reasonable so I gave it a try. Setup was simple. The table itself seems to be well constructed and should remain stable for quite some time. So far it’s only been used to round over edges of stair treads , but I’m very pleased with the purchase.

Oustanding value!

Lightweight and easily moved from/to different places. Got a great deal... $99 for table and router

High quality router and table for a great price

This is a high quality router table and router at a great price. Unlike other tables that I've seen, this one comes with an aluminum surface. The router is powerful and if connected to the table, has a benefit of easy height adjustment. Nice router and table combination for a fair price.

The price is very affordable! Highly recommended

Highly satisfied. The product was exactly what I was searching for. Works like a charm. Very affordable.
