I have the corded version of this. Used it for years. But my goal is to replace all my corded tools with cordless. Mikita did a nice job converting this to cordless

Would have never thought that a battery operated plane could handle the job. But, this thing cut through edges of hardwood drawers like butter. Love it.

This router and plunge router are terrific. They are really easy to use, have tons of power and can do the work of a full sized router. Being cordless frees me to use the router anywhere. The guide attachment seemed flimsy at first but proved to be strong and firm.

My new favorite tool!

Great little router. More than enough power and easy to handle. Only complaint is the hole in the base on the fixed router portion is too small to accommodate larger bits. Easy fix is to run a bit through it which I did.

Perfect & very handy tool.

This is a great router, smooth and convenient. Plus the kit is a steal for the price. I would recommend it for beginner or pro a like. One less cord on the jobsite equals that much more efficient.
