Best trimmer made

This is without a doubt the best all around trimmer made. It can do almost anything asked of it. The attachments make quick work of itricate jobs. I would recommend it to anyone. It will be the last one you have to buy.

Very happy so far.

This little router is very handy for jobs where light weight and compact size matter more than horsepower. It is not much bigger than a laminate trimmer and is much more versitile.

I bought mine primarily for cutting hinge and strike plate mortises. I figured that the attachments that come with the kit would come in handy sooner or later. It was a lot cheaper to buy the kit than to buy the bare router and add the other parts a-la-carte.

The small, rectangular sub-base provided allows you to work close to raised obstructions but it is too small to bridge the opening in hinge mortise templates. Be sure to buy a PR009 or PR010 sub-base with this router so that you have that capability. I chose the PR010 due to the ready availability of 1-3/16" guide bushings and the relatively poor reviews on Bosch's bayonet-mount bushings.

The only reason for not giving this kit 5-stars is that Bosch did not anticipate the virtual necessity for a larger sub-base and provide room in the case for it.

Neat little tool

I brought this to rout a groove where my walls meet my wooden floors, to fill with caulking and keep out ants. This is my first Bosch tool, and it has worked out great; I am very impressed with the quality of design and construction.

Happy but have a slight problem

I love this router. It is very light weight and powerful and the accessories are great. Love the variable speed. Only issue that Ihave is that after only 2 months of use, the spindle lock is broken and cannot be used to tighten or loosen the bits. I took a 3/8" wrench and thinned it downto fit the slot on the spindle and now uestwo wrenches to tighten/loosen the bits. Would have thought that Bosch would have made something that stood up a little better than this. Oh well, I still love the router.

Almost a great improvement

I have been a professional woodworker for 20 years. I had a Porter Cable Laminate trim kit that I loved, but it was stolen. I bought this because of the variable speed, detents in the tilt base, and more powerful motor. Unfortunately, the bases slip until you adjust the lock nuts, and it is a very fine line between too tight to adjust and too loose to hold. Worse than that, the darn thing is much louder than the PC kit. It is a good router, and comfortable to operate. Bosch routers are usually well crafted and bullet proof, so I suppose I'll get used to it. Wish I'd bought another PC, though.
