   I've read probably 3 reviews that included this router and they were all positive.  I'd buy it in a minute if I needed one!  Can't believe no other manufacturer thought of the integral adjustment for use in a table.  Bravo Milwaukee.

   I looked at it but now a days if a router does not have soft start and variable speed I won't buy it.  I would wait till they do, Bosch, Dewalt, Makita all make very nice routers.  In my table I have the big one from PC (5 speeds).

   THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT, YOU MAKE A GOOD POINT, I UNDERSTAND THAT BY THE END OF THE YEAR MILWAUKEE HAS PLANS TO OFFER VARIABLE SPEED, PERHAPS I SHOULD WAIT, WHAT I LIKED ALSO ON THIS ROUTER IS THE ADJUSTING DEVICE FROM THE TOP, WHICH I UNDERSTAND THE OTHER MODELS DON'T HAVE. THANKS

   Dear Arizonian,

   I work at a local Home Center, and we carry that router.  We have only sold a few, but my typical customer is "Dan the do-it-yourselfer", and he wants to buy the cheapest thing that will spin a bit.  Sometimes a pro, like yourself, will stop and look at this router, like he's picking out a person in a large crowd, and will notice the quality and versatility of this dude.  I like it myself.  Built like a rock. Plan to buy it next payday.  I think it would work great for your table.

   Stay cool,

   Joe
