This is my first router and it worked flawlessly! I had a little bit of a learning curve but got the hang of it quickly. I would recommend oiling or spraying the screw fitting so that you can adjust the length of the router for the bit otherwise it can be very hard to move. Wish it had bag fitting so that it can collect the wood shavings as it does throw out a lot of wood shavings. This router works really well though and does a beautiful job for whatever wood project you may have.

The unboxing was awesome, it was in its carry case and all the bits were easy to identify. I enjoyed using this router as it was easy to move around and the guide is clear/easy to see what you are doing. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone! I used this to inlay LED lights into a couple cornhole boards! It came out so cool!Wish you could post short videos here, I would show you!

I can’t believe how long in my life I have wanted a router. I finally got one to install door hinges on a couple doors for my apartment. This seems like a decent router for the money, plenty of power for the jobs I will be doing. I was able to use this router along with a door hing cutout jig.

No a plunge router, it works but would have rather about kit this one will become restrictive quickly, down the extra and get the dewalt or mikita kit with plunge and fixed based save the money might be good on a router table

I had one particular job that only a router could do and the Ryobi worked fine. Pretty easy to adjust for depth but still want to practice on scrap before diving in the deep end.
