This bench top router cabinet is well built and solid. Assembly was straight forward and the directions were clear and concise. (Don't remember the last time I made that statement).
Dust collection worked very well. Make sure to run a branch to the dust port on the cabinet as well.
I probably would not have made this purchase if not for the Bosch name for fear of shoddy materials and workmanship, but no worries with this unit. I own a number of Bosch tools and have never been dissapointed with their quality. Glad to see that trend continue.
The fence is very nice -- adjustable in width to accommodate different size bits. Featherboards are effective, although the wood doesn't slide real well by them if they are even a little too tight. The external on/off switch is great and convenient. I used it both with the fence to do some rounding edges, and also without the fence for curved pieces... both ways worked fine.
Overall I really like the cabinet w/door rather than an open box so that I can keep my bits and other router accessories in there when not in use. I am going to build a roller cart for it so it's lower in height and moveable -- it's pretty heavy to carry. Also I can then bolt or clamp it to the cart, as it can slide around on a tabletop when in use.
Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2024
Pros: It's Bosch and is designed to work with my Bosch 1617 router fixed base. Sturdy (heavy!) MDF construction (not particle board). The aluminum router mounting plate, fence extrusion, and miter slot add strength and wear resistance to the heavily used pieces. It took me a about an hour to assemble and adjust. I had no issues with fit up. I also didn't have issues with adjusting the router base plate flat with the table - it took me five minutes with a long level. There are two screws at each corner of the mounting plate, one holds it down to the table, the other acts against it as a height adjustment. Loosen them all, then adjust the heights with a level, then tighten it down. Also, the MDF table top I received (May 2013) was chamfered on the inside edge, so none of my workpieces catch while routing. I sat this on top of a set of Craftsman roller drawers with some non-slip drawer liner in between. I haven't had to clamp it down yet; the drawer cabinet wants to wobble on its casters before the router cabinet slides. Dust collection: there is a 2" hole on the rear left of the unit. I plan on installing a Y to route dust collection to the fixed router base (Bosch sells a kit for this) and to the fence.
Cons: I wish Bosch would have included plastic inserts to cover the unused countersunk holes (some of them 3/8") in the router mounting plate. I will probably will these with something on my own. To be fair, the holes haven't affected operation; I just like a cleaner look. Also, the included feather boards are a pain if you take them out of the t-slot. They are made of more parts (to standardize manufacturing) and don't fit into the slots one-handed, (or easily two-handed, for me). That said, you're not buying this table for the accessories, and you can easily modify them if needed. One commenter added bolt clamps on his fence for quick adjustments, I plan on doing the same (though the included knobs work fine).

However this should not be shipped to the UK as the switch only support power of 110V and not 220/240V. There is no mention of this that I could see. That aside the actual cabinet is excellent and far superior to anything I could find here even with shipping and import costs.
