I use the fixed-base DeWalt for my dovetail jig and the Bosch plunger for mortises, etc. Love both but much prefer the plunge base on the Bosch compared to the DeWalt plunge base. I just wish dust collection was better on the Bosch.

Oof im reading some bad stuff qbout both dewalt trim router and this 618. Many morors guving up the smoke with minimal use. For me i wont use the router as much as othwrs so i need to know when i use it 2-3x a year and have it work

@TheThoughtfulWoodworker 25 дней назад

I think it's an old issue that's been solved. I have 4 618 motors and they are working great. Really not any plunge router on the market that's as smooth as the 618. Thanks

@@TheThoughtfulWoodworker when were yours purchased? Thanks. I love DeWalt and 90% of my tools are DeWalt. Would you say it's smoother than the 23? I know the 23 is smoother than it's Bosch counterpart the 1617

@@2010stoof Mine are between 2 and 8 years old with heavy use. The 618 plunge is smoother than the MRC23. The motor on the MRC23 may feel smoother with heavy cuts, but that's just because it's a 15 amp motor vs 12 amp on the 618. The MRC23 also feels quite a bit heavier in the plunge base. Thanks

@@TheThoughtfulWoodworker oh ok. Yeah the issues are between 2-4 years ago according to reviews for the 618. Can't forget about user error but with a router should be able to take some abuse

@@2010stoof Maybe buy from Amazon and get the extended warranty amzn.to/4eaWsVD If it fails, you'll be covered. Like I mentioned, mine have been good. Bosch 1617 and MRC23 are other great choices for handheld routing. My favorite router in a table is still the Freud FT1700, but it's no longer made. I have three of those, just in case. I may have an addition to routers, now that I think of it.
