This past winter I built a long needed router table. I installed a nice router lift, along with my 1.50 H.P. Porter Cable router. This router left a lot to be desired. I installed the 2.25 and couldn’t be happier.

Lock button for chuck is in a poor location. Base plate not standard. Storage box too small.

I trust Porter Cable products i own a lot of them. Only problem is I had to order it on line instead of going to the Home Depot store and buying it I really don’t have time to wait on tools if i need something i go buy it All in all the router is very good and will buy more Porter Cable tools

Bought this router and a Porter-Cable dovetail jig for making drawers and boxes, Have only made a few drawers and a lot of practice pieces. Could not be more satisfied. Soft start and micro adjustment works very well. Had to order a different base in order to use the dovetail jig bushings. But now I have two bases

I installed this in my router table to replace a Dewalt router I am now using with its original kit. I haven’t used it much, but the Porter Cable is much quieter than the Dewalt.

Exactly what I needed to use my larger router bits at a slower speed. I have a PC 690 fixed speed, so I trusted Porter Cable to deliver on a good product.

Great router. I’m using it as a spindle for my pantorouter machine

Router has adequate HP for all work I would do in my workshop. The variable speed is great especially for large bits cutting oak. I purchased two of these. One for my horizontal router table and the other for a standard router table with manual lift. I am still awaiting some pieces to finish hooking up these routers to their respective tables.

took 13 days to get router base from Illinois to wis,hey porter cable when you sell a product ,inform the purchaser that you need all these other parts to properly use your product .In other words sell a complete package to get job done.

The 2,25 HP Porter-Cable Router is a excellent power tool and easy to use.
Hobart Daugherty (verified owner) –
Well thought out and a really nice balanced machine for ease of use. Of course, I like the power. Yes the less powerful work, it just requires several passes which could result in a mistake.
