I pulled into my local Home Depot that I frequent nearly every day for my business. This time I wanted to buy a router. I browsed the tool section and found what I wanted. The routers, except for the displays, are all locked up. I spent 20 minutes, yes 20 minutes trying to find someone to open the cabinet so I could get the tool and go. I asked two inventory people – who couldn’t help, one person stocking plumbing parts, who paged someone to meet me at the tools. No one arrived for 10 minutes. I went to the service desk where another page was sent out. I waited for another 5 plus minutes. I put the router bit I had selected back on the shelf and was headed to the door when Katie, from the service desk – who had sent out the second page, had the presence of mind to meet me and help me out. I already expect ho-hum service from H/D, after all they obviously have a heavy turnover of employees, and many of them are young college students. I have been marooned at this store before trying to get help, but today set a record. Katie was polite and helpful, and I was finally headed to the car with the router and bit.If I didn’t need this tool today, I would have spent my money elsewhere. I can’t believe that there is no one working in the front of the store where the most expensive items – power and hand tools are. Management needs to get their act together, or hire Katie for the job.

The included accessories and overall quality of the router makes it one of the best compact routers out there.

I’ve used a friends and i loved this thing. I got my own and the only issue I’ve had so far is the depth adjustment kept slipping down while flush trimming. I would stop, unclasp the clamp, adjust it back to depth, reclamp it and it would slip again. Not sure if it’s mine but i want to try it on a friend’s for comparison .

This is my first router, I chose this match my other M18 powered drills. I am amazed at the build quality, portability, and ease of use. Very satisfied, so far with this little tool. I’m eager to get started on many projects just to use it. I would recommend getting the Compact Router Plunge Base if possible.

I needed a jigsaw added to my tool collection and I am very impressed with this one. Did a few small projects. Cutting was a breeze with great control to make precise, tight fitting cuts. Tons of power, could not bog this thing down. Only thing I miss is a lazer blade guide like the Ryobi I used to use, but there is plenty of visibility with the LED light.
