I purchased this router specifically to mill aluminum. I have other porter cable routers (full size) that have served me well for years so trusted the brand. This tool did not let me down. I found adjustment/depth of cut to be rock-solid yet easy. Electronically controlled speed works great.

Great router
Fay Dare (verified owner) –
I bought this as the first router in my shop. I do have to say the opening in the clear plastic base is too small for most router bits. I ended up having to buy a new larger baseplate to useMy bits.
Nellie Kassulke (verified owner) –
This is a very nice powerful 7amp 27000 rpm smooth,quiet running router. After researching suggested router bit speeds rpms I personally chose a different model with variable speed and accessible carbon brushes
