I especially like the ease in adjusting the depth of the cut. The micro-adjustment knob is easy to use. I also like the quick release lever for the depth setting.The router has adequate power for most cabinet work. I was able to cut 1/2" x 1/2" with ease. Its light weight makes it easy to use without fatigue.My unit was packaged with both 1/2 and 1/4 inch collets. 17 of 17 people found the following review helpful. Great Router, Great Service By John Eckels I needed a fixed base router for my Leigh Jig and was originally going to purchase the P.C 690. After some inquiring on a woodworking bulliten board, I decided not to purchase the P.C. The 690 was called the "Screaming Dinosaur". It was an outdated design, very noisy, and underpowered. Someone even commented that it torqued it's way out of a router table. Ouch.I picked up a refurbished Bosch 1617 at an auction and when it arrived it was damaged. Fortunately, Bosch was the seller and they rectified the situation by sending me a brand new non refurbished model. Great Service!The more I use this router, the more I like it. It is very powerful, and the depth adjustment is very precise, very easy to use and just cant be beat. The machine is relatively quiet (for a router)and the quality of construction is top notch. This router is so precise and consistent, I do not need to make test cuts for the dovetail pins on my Leigh Jig. I know where to set the jig, and the dovetails come out perfect every time!For general purpose use, I highly recommend spending the extra money on the variable speed model. When you run larger bits (which this machine can handle) you need a slower speed. Router speed controls cut you horsepower as well as your speed. The variable speed version of this router has electronic feedback which maintains you horsepower while reducing the speed. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. Bosch Router... Need more be said By Stephen Wargo This router is perfect. I was going to spend the extra for the 2HP version but I tested this one first. More than enough power. It comes with a 1/2" and 1/4" collet. Nice. and the handles feel great. I've cut rails and stiles and raised panels with it in a router table and it handled it like a champ. Bosch make the best fixed base router on the market, Hands Down. See all 8 customer reviews...
