1.		Milwaukee 5615-24 1.75-Horsepower Multi-Base Router Kit Includes Plunge Base and BodyGrip Fixed Base from Milwaukee Price: $189.00 Customer Review: Router seems well-made. Feels more solid than others in this price range that I messed with at Sears etc. Collet change is easy, bit changing isn't too bad-just takes a little time to get the hang of it. Case is HUGE!!!I haven't used it long, though it seems like it will hold up. Nobody comes close... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Bosch 1617EVSPK 12 Amp 2-1/4-Horsepower Plunge and Fixed Base Variable Speed Router Kit with 1/4-Inch and 1/2-Inch Collets from Bosch Price: $205.00 Customer Review: I purchased this router two-months-ago. The manufacturing and quality control is substandard. A chip has broken from the plunge base (thankfully the tool was off). Save yourself the trouble and buy a Porter Cable 690 so you don't have to talk to Bosch's useless service department.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

I works very smooth and surprisingly quiet for how big it is. It's larger and heavier than the B&D but the ergonomics feels better. I'll still use my B&D for small jobs. I haven't used the plunge stand yet but... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Black & Decker RP250 10 Amp 2-1/4-Inch Variable Speed Plunge Router from Black & Decker Price: $59.99 Customer Review: Router is by far the best by on the market.

7.		Bosch PR20EVSK Colt Palm Grip 5.7 Amp 1-Horsepower Fixed Base Variable Speed Router with Edge Guide from Bosch Price: $101.47 Customer Review: Bought two routers. one for my son-in-law and one for myself. I'm very please with the weight, balance and power of the unit. I've hogged out blocks of wood for solid picture frame, used a straight bit to level up over hangs and done 1/8 and 1/4 inch round overs. The slow start up is great,... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


8.		Yukon Tool YTRB24 24-Piece Router Bit Set from Yukon Tool Price: $39.99 Customer Review: Set arrived in good condition. Box not damaged and bits tight in case, unlike some others. Bought as a general-use set. Satisfied with my purchase.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


9.		BOSCH RA1181 Benchtop Router Table from Bosch Price: $202.53 Customer Review: As other reviewers have mentioned, the top on mine is far from flat. There is more than 1/16 inch valley in the middle - making accurate routing impossible. Unfortunately, i had mine more than a year before i noticed the problem ( i'm just an occasional woodworker), and now i'm stuck with it...	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


10.		MLCS 8377 Router Bit Set with Carbide tipped, 1/2-Inch Shank, 15-Piece from MLCS Price: $39.95 Customer Review: These bits feel heavy and fairly well-made. I haven't used them much, so I can't say anything about their longevity. They are pacckaged well and the box that holds the bits is very convenient. I am just a beginner, so I feel that this is a great starter set for the price. Shipping was fast and they... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


11.		Hitachi M12VC 2-1/4-Horsepower Variable Speed Router from Hitachi Price: $107.99 Customer Review: I've been using a router for over 30 years and have had good luck with most routers except the craftman which I have had problems with. I bought the Hitachi router to replaced my craftsman. I like the feel and performance of the Hitachi, however there is some drawbacks with it. First, there's no... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


12.		DEWALT DW618PK 12-AMP 2-1/4-HP Plunge and Fixed Base Variable Speed Router Kit with 1/4-Inch and 1/2-Inch Collets from DEWALT Price: $214.05 Customer Review: This is a fairly well-built product, but there are several weird aspects about it. The base plates aren't interchangeable. There's no shroud at the bottom of the dust collection tube near the bit to direct waste into the vacuum system. Every so often the speed wavers and it may just be... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


13.		Milwaukee 5625-20 15 Amp 3-1/2-Horsepower Fixed Base Variable Speed Router with T-Handle Height Adjustment Wrench from Milwaukee Price: $271.75 Customer Review: This router has no vices whatsoever. It is exceedingly powerful as you would expect from 3.5 HP, has adjustments for variable speeds, an easy bit-change mechanism, etc., but the least expected plus is how quiet it is, about the same as a drill press believe it or not. I mounted it in my table and... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


14.		Bosch PR10E Colt Single-Speed Palm-Grip Router from Bosch Price: $94.99 Customer Review: I was given this router as a gift from my husband. I love it except for the following: I have fairly severe arthritis in my hands and it's nearly impossible for me to try to hold in the button while holding the router and tightening the collet with the wrench. For those of us with arthritis or... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


15.		DEWALT DW618B3 12 Amp 2-1/4 Horsepower Plunge Base and Fixed Base from DEWALT Price: $267.35 Customer Review: I bought this combo about 2 years ago. I have the router motor mounted in a quik lift from woodpecker most of the time, but occasionally use by hand and it's really nice having the option of the grips. Plunge is my most used grip. I've used it for edging and for raised panels using a vertical... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

I had a Porter-Cable Trim Router for seven years, so I had to buy another one. I cannot be without my router. they are good and thanks to Amozon I got my router for a reasonable price.

18.		Dremel 692 6-Piece Router Bit Set from Dremel Price: $25.98 Customer Review: Fast shipping. I've used the bits to cut small channels so far. They work well as long you only try to cut a small depth. I found that for harder woods about 1/16 inch at time works well.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information


19.		Dremel 231 Shaper/Router Table from Dremel Price: $26.95 Customer Review: This router table is really nice. Everything is nice about this table. I made nice big table from this little table. If you looking to route big pieces this is not the right table for you, but you can make something like I did. I made custom fit and now I can run bigger pieces of wood. This table... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information


20.		Bosch RA1125 7-Piece Router Template Guide Set from Bosch Price: $29.99 Customer Review: The Bosch Template Guide Set, is a great buy! It works wonderfully with my Bosch router.
