Amazing price and brilliant Router I don't think you can get it cheaper

Es el router más seguro que hay

all good

I already have a cordless trim router (also Dewalt) and a fixed 2 1/2 hp Bosch corded router in my router table. While the Bosch is an excellent product, I hate having to remove it from the table when I need a full-sized router, plus the cord gets in my way. When Dewalt released this, I resisted for several months, but then had a project that needed a larger router so I pulled the trigger. I am so glad I did because this is a brilliant router. Let’s start the the economics. The two angled handles are perfectly situated to give you solid control of the router, and all the controls are right at your fingertips. The plunge mechanism works reliably and smoothly, yet you can instantly lock it into place with the flick of a thumb. With previous routers, I often had a fixed base and a plunge base, but this plunge base can be fixed at any depth in half a second. With a 5Ah PowerStack battery (recommended by Dewalt for this model), it is powerful yet lightweight. I’m honestly not sure if it’s really that it’s all that light or just that the ergonomics are so good that it’s easy to handle, but it feels that way in use. It is, after all a solid 2 1/2 hp full-sized router that is designed for professional use. In addition to being a solid all around router, it has some unusual features that really set it apart from the competition. Dust collection is excellent, with ah ingenious system that catches the dust under the router and sends it up through one vertical post to an outlet that either take a Dewalt connector or a standard 2 1/2” connector. It even includes an extra piece for redirecting the dust from an edge cut back into the collection chute. From a safety standpoint, it has a feature that will instantly shut off the router if it detects a sudden twist in the housing. When that happens, a red light comes on and the router won’t run u til you release the power button and reactivate it. It also has a warning light to let you know if you are forcing the cut too quickly. I’ve never seen either of these on another router. Overall, this router is a pleasure to use, powerful and flexible. It’s easily the best router I’ve ever used.

I purchased this router because I wanted a battery-powered router that could be used with both a 1/2" and a 1/4" shank. I generally use the 1/2" shank on this router. My main use for it is for jointing long boards (photos attached). I use a 7/8" diameter compression bit and let the bottom bearing track a smooth board with a factory edge. It produced a perfectly smooth edge as shown. I hooked up the dust port to my vacuum, and it sucks up a lot of the dust. The handles feel great, and there is a safety feature that shuts the router off if it does a violent twist. Also, I like the trigger control vs. just an on/off switch that some routers have. I use the plunge features extensively and they work as they should. This router does chew through a battery charge quickly so beware, but if you have an ecosystem of DeWalt batteries, then that is not a problem and the newer technology PowerStack batteries are recommended by DeWalt for this router. I got two of them from Amazon, especially for use on this router. All in all, a really impressive router. No regrets!
