Freud router

Now we know why it's 99 bucks. Thank you for being the guinea pig.

The good news is, if you just bought it, you ran return it, for 90 days. A decent router is going to cost more than $99.

PC is not what it used to be these days, you might want to reconsider still another brand. Bosch, Milwaukee. Triton, Makita, DeWalt.

I actually got a pretty good little router from Sears for $40 that met my modest needs. Of course that was about forty years ago.

I got one and find that it works pretty well (at least much better than my PC 7529 LOL). My biggest complaint is that no matter how you set the router in the table you cannot get to both the adjustment hole and the clamp lock hole without moving the fence, which kind of defeats the whole idea. While I did notice some minor back and forth movement when adjusting the height, it appears to come back to the same point when relocked. I have no trouble with my adjustment tool reaching all three adjustments (i.e. the height adjustment, the clamp lock and the spindle lock) while in the table - other than having to move the fence to get to all three holes.
