Hello,
I’m still trying to decide which router to buy for my Bosch router table. I continue to like the Bosch 2 1/4 HP 1617EVSPK combo kit. I am aware of the two previous problems with this router, the possibility of the on-off switch failure and the corrosion problem on the old magnesium housing, but I know that both problems have been corrected with the newer machines. I’ve also looked at the DeWalt DW618 combo kit as well as the Porter-Cable 893 combo kit. I like both of these, but the feel of the Bosch seems better to me than the other two, at least it does when I examine them on the shelf at Lowe’s, and they are all compatible with the mounting plate on my Bosch table.
Does anyone know of any reason why I might be disappointed with the Bosch as my choice?
Louis
