Review on Bosch RA1165 Under Table Router Above Table by Joseph Campos

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I tried and I tried

I bought it because $300 elevators were out of my reach. I had to save my money and spend it on a $300 facelift. I never managed to get it to work as described. Maybe operator error, I'm not sure. I'm just sure it won't go up and down without taking it off the router table. Add to my dissatisfaction with the table and platen for the Bosch router that they are not a standard size and now I have to buy a table and lift. Last week I couldn't tighten the Rockler through tool without shims in the corner rail. After 2 passes he loosened up and now I've piled up a uselessness in the corner again. Still, I love my Bosch router.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • High price
