Overall Rating for DeWalt DW618 2-1/4 HP EVS Fixed Base Router
(based on 1 review)
DeWalt DW618 Router - very handy!
By Masrol Sumairi from Kuala Lumpur, MY. on February 4, 2012
I've been using this router for many months now. As a dedicated "hand-held" router, I really enjoy using it due to many features that other heavy duty routers I own is lacking. It is fitted with detachable power cord - a feature that I like most.
Pros:
1. detachable power cord
2. minimum vibration
3. low noise
4. smooth running motor.
5. light weight
6. smooth & comfortable handle

I would recommend this item to a friend.
