Was exactly as advertised.

Easy to assemble, fits right, and not horribly priced. Well worth it to get my router back up and running.

Fits both my router and my recent purchase of the Ryobi router table. I can now go from hand router to table routing easily.

It’s an exact duplicate of the fixed base in 1617EVSPK package. I can installed one on router table and the other one use as mobile.This item comes with the main user manual found in 1617EVSPK, Above-Table Hex KeyNotes: There is another model RA1165 “Table Base for 1617/18 Series Routers” for $10 less. However, I recommend buying this one (in case if something happens to the other base, you have this one as a replacement 🙂 )

Works really well, just like the original until it was dropped.
