Junk is something you've kept for years and throw away three weeks before you need it.

So you all are saying I did the right thing to order this?
I've read some great reviews on this very router.

Been waiting for a chance to get one and boy did I jump on that email.
The pixels weren't all even displayed before I clicked on the link to order!!!

Should be here just in time for some things I am working on.

I have the single speed version and it is really nice to use for small jobs.  I have 3 different routers and dont know why it took me so long to by a small one.  Love it and you definitely made a good choice.

GB,
You made a great choice.  I love the variable speed and soft start.

The 'soft Start' is what sold me! I could live with the single speed but I sure like the soft start on my Dremel.

Depending on the job at hand, you will soon learn to like the variable speed too. And above all, the compact size is what sold me on it.

Sorry Kate, all I saw was the basic Bosch Blue.
But I'm thinking the 'sticker store' might have something to add!
