   I bought one at HDT and used it for the first time the other day.  Made a play table and benches for granddaughter.  I used a slot cutter and the plastic edging for the trable top.  It is a fine tool!!  In spite of the small base it was very stable and controlable spinning the wing cutter.

   It's a nice router, and both controllable and powerful for its size.  the only think I don't like is that the spindle lock is sometimes difficult to engage.  I sometimes have to release the motor lock and move the base to get the spindle lock to work.  A minor inconvenience for an otherwise fine tool.  I got it reconditioned from CPO Bosch.

   I have a Bosch and a Makita. Both are fine. Don't use the toolless bit change much because I don't change bits but rarely.

   I 3rd or 4th the Bosch Colt, used mine the other day to rout a new drain into an old soapstone sink, easy to control in a difficult spot.

   I saw the Colt when it was pre-production. I made the comment to the engineers and marketing folks they would sell a lot more of them if they called it a "detail router" instead of a "laminate trimmer." I could see the lights go on. I don't know if I was reinforcing their idea or seeding a new one.
