Amazon.com Review

From the moment you get your hands on it, you'll appreciate thequality of this router. The handles offer total comfort and confidenceas you guide this 11-1/4-pound beauty around. Its soft start means nojerking, even when you start it at its peak speed of 22,000 rpm (itsbottom range is 8,000 rpm). The 15 amp motor is quieter than you'dexpect in a router this size, and the rack-and-pinion depth adjustmentDeWalt is known and loved for comes equipped with a magnified scale anda micro fine-adjustment knob. The plunge mechanism is smooth assilk--better than on routers twice the price--and it would serveperfectly in a table or for freehand work. The 625 comes with 1/2- and1/4-inch collets, and when it's time to change the bit, you'll reallyappreciate the spindle-lock button; it's a big square with a fingerdepression, unlike most other routers that offer either two wrenches towrestle with or a small, sharp spindle-lock pin that leaves a red dentin your finger. Other nice features: one side of the base is roundedand one is flat, and it comes with a dust-extraction adapter. Thispiece of machinery truly is as close to flawless as a router can get.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

This review refers to the new model of this tool. This is a reconditioned powertool. Reconditioned generally means that the tool has been returned to the manufacturer,who brings the tool back to like-new condition. Some tools may contain cosmeticblemishes. Reconditioned tools come with the same warranty as their newcounterparts.

Bosch recently introduced routers that it claims have the highest power-to-weight ratio inthe industry. We believe them. The 1618B is a member of Bosch's new Magnesium line.This router features a stout 11-amp, 1-3/4-horsepower motor coupled with anall-magnesium base and housing. The result is a lightweight, well-balanced, andsmooth-operating machine that offers fast results in demanding applications. TheD-handle provides excellent control--especially when reaching and turning on andoff--and the auxiliary handle reverses, which is handy.

Bosch engineers are very proud of what they call the "precision centering system," whichmakes the router bit track at true center. It's an important feature for multiple-passapplications like jig cutting, and fine woodworkers will particularly appreciate it. Ease ofheight adjustment is a way of measuring quality in routers, and Bosch has come up with asystem that works as well as any we've tested. A large flip lever releases the motor foradjusting. Rather than twisting as the height changes, the motor raises and drops in astraight path. The result is a simple and smooth-working course-adjust that couples withan efficient microadjust to make fine-tuning the depth of cut easy and accurate.Removing the motor from the base is a similar operation: simply release the flip lever,depress the course-adjustment lever, slide the motor out until it stops, then turn the motorcounterclockwise and pull. It couldn't be easier, and there's no thumbscrew to wrestlewith. Anyone who switches bases frequently will appreciate this design.

The collet is self-releasing, which means there's no need to tap the spindle to change bits,and the collet depth is 13/16 of an inch, a few 16ths deeper than that of DeWalt orPorter-Cable--one more weapon in Bosch's battle for a truly centered bit. --MarkMcDonald ... Read more

Shipping Destroyed Product
The heavy router was in a cardboard box twice the size of the router with absolutely no packing and shipped via UPS. Needless to say the router arrived smashed into several pieces. I know this was not the fault of Amazon, because after several emails to customer service I was told the router comes directly from Bosch. I would have just exchanged the router but I then read through the other reviews of Bosch reconditioned tools on Amazon and found several people mention identical problems with packaging. There is obviously a pattern of perfunctory packaging with reconditioned Bosch products. Therefore, I got a refund and will probably just purchase a new one. The reconditioned kit is not much of a saving either. My router did not come with any of the kit accessories. I was expecting a ¼ inch Collet Chuck, a ½ inch Collet, Template Guide, Chip Shield, Dust Extraction Hood, Vacuum Hose Adapter and the Carrying Case. After several more emails to customer service I was told only the collets, a dust hood, the template guides and wrench are included. My main reason for wanting the kit was to get the... Bosch case, which they told me is NOT included with the reconditioned kit. You have to buy a new kit to get the case.

A very good plunge router
The Bosach 1613 EVS router is a really good machine. The soft start prevents the router from jumping when it starts and possibly ruining a cut. The power switch is a trigger in the handle, more convenient and safer than a toggle switch on top of the unit. The depth setting has a multi-position turret, allowing deep cuts to be made gradually and repeatably. The depth setting itself is a little counter-intuitive, but makes sense once you've played with it for a few minutes. The 2 hp is enough that it has never bogged down on me, even while making 3/4" wide grooves in hardwood. All in all, a very good router, whose only glitch is the depth setting procedure. ...

do your self a favor and buy/build a router table
I've used this machine on several occasions at the shop where I work. Delta has many great products in its stable, but this is not one of them. First off, the machine is way too light. a router/shaper (...) should be heavy in order to reduce vibration. Secondly, the top is cast aluminum. Good Lord, and with those horrible grooves. And my final point (though I could go on ad infinitum), the table is too small.

A deal for the money
Overall the item performs well. I use it to cut styles, rails and raised panels for cabinet doors. This model includes a dust shroud for chip pickup by a collector which is helpful when using on curves and other applications. Only drawback: When adusting the the the cutter head height I have to estimate additional travel of the head when the cutterhead lock is applied. Overall it is a good deal for the money espectially if you're on a budget or novice wood worker. ... Read more
