WORKPRO 6.5 Amp Corded Compact Router Kit

Works good, plenty of power. The Fence is kind of shoddy, and the plunge base has some glitches but that's easily remedied with a drop of machine oil on each shaft and its action is as smooth as any other router I've used. The other benefit is with the plunge base, the "DeWalt Universal Router Fence" ( Amazon ID B00002232W ) fits perfectly using the inside holes of the DeWalt fence which gives very smooth adjust meth of the fence in addition to a micro adjustment. I haven't found a base for the trim router base, It could be used in a router table if you made a 1/2" plywood adapter plate to go from the round base to the square options of an aluminum router table insert. The vacuum attachment for both bases works real slick and the included bits are carbide and have cut all the slots for the T-Track to hold feather board in router table just fine. I'm using an old Menards router for the router table as it's fixed speed so it's relegated to that application perfectly due to having the right base dimensions to screw onto the black $15 router table insert plate. If you aren't going to be hogging away with 2" cuts, this will suit your needs, though I've pretty much ignored the fixed base entirely, the plunge base is almost all I need - except for templates. The round fix base takes standard template bushings directly, while the plunge router only has a metal template bushing for a 1/2" straight bit. That's fine if you're only doing 1/2" things but there's no way to use my set of brass insert bushings for template following with this router and the plunge base, though it DOES work with fixed based router. Great value and put together great, though I'd suggest the DeWalt universal fence to save frustration when trying to cut a clean parallel line to a work piece. It's also better to go in 1/4" cuts at a time for best finish. I tried lower RPM (for larger diameter tools) and high speed and the high speed gets the best finish for 1/2" and cuts, along with only taking 1/4" swipes each cut. UPDATE #2: Tilt Base Item B0DJ152RZ5 Fits this router perfectly and even has a pinion that engages the threads. So this is an all in one with the DeWalt fence, fixed base for router table, plunge base for off table, and itilt base for bevels. Still very happy with the router and may pick up another now that I have all the accessories and far too much invested in 1/4" router bits.

So far so good! I Like how compact and how light it is. Its easy to put together and use. It has enough power for everything im using it for and it comes with good set up for dust collection. Great level of speed soft start and change it to high when needed. Its well made .

I'm extremely impressed by this router very powerful motor love the fact it came with adjustable speeds, cuts very nicely with round and straight bits I also love the slow start of the motor gives you time didn't just start off aggressively I like it.

Great product. Great price. It comes with all you need and more.

Since mounting my full-size router to a table I needed something for free hand work and smaller projects. This router runs smoothly & has plenty of power. The depth adjustment holds tight and is fine for rough work, but if depth is critical use a gauge to set the depth as the adjustment is a bit sloppy when unclamped. Tool seems well built, not too heavy but enough weight to stay put while routing. I did not try the included bits, I already have the ones I need and trust. At this price point I’m not comfortable risking it and ruining a project because of cheap bits. By eye they look fine, edges are clean and sharp. But looks don’t reveal the quality of the pilot bearings or the materials used.

Product is trash. Turned it on and worked for a total of 15 seconds and stopped working. Do not recommend it.

I picked up the WORKPRO Router Combo a few weeks ago, and it’s been a solid addition to my small workshop so far. The first thing I noticed was how comfortable it felt in my hands—lightweight enough to maneuver easily, yet sturdy enough to tackle hardwood. Switching between the fixed and plunge bases is straightforward, and the plunge feature has really helped me make more precise, deeper cuts when needed. The variable speed control is a nice touch, allowing me to dial in exactly how fast I need the router to spin depending on the type of wood I’m working with. Even at higher speeds, the motor runs smoothly and doesn’t seem to struggle. I’ve used this kit on pine boards and oak so far, and the cuts came out clean with minimal chatter. My only small gripe is that the depth adjustment can feel a bit stiff at first, but after a little breaking in, it’s become smoother. Overall, I’m happy with the build quality and performance—this combo kit has already saved me time on multiple projects and fits nicely on my bench without taking up too much space. For anyone looking for a reliable, mid-range router setup, this one’s worth considering.

I was opening up an existing hole in a cabinet top to replace the drop in sink with a new one. All the new ones are a bit larger. I purchased this to open the hole up. This little machine was a beast. I did use a bit I purchased separately that really removed material well. But this little router has plenty of power and did the job well.

Espectacular

Esta máquina. No le pide nada alas d alta gama. Super materiales d primera. Sus accesorios completos . Todo super la recomiendo. Un super motor potente fabrico muebles y diario le doy batalla

A great little machine. I took it out of the box and put it straight to work. No issues @ all. I actually compare it to my Ridgid trim router that was stollen from me some time back It's well worth the money. Respect the tool and its limitations and it will return with positive results.

Soy un carpintero aficionado y utilizo esta herramienta para mejorar los acabados de muebles, he utilizado otros routers de mayor potencia y precio, honestamente este mini router bien utilizado no les pide nada a Routers profesionales, si va a ser necesario utilizar brocas de mejor filo y calidad que las que vienen con la herramienta, pero vale mucho la pena la inversión en este producto, lo recomiendo, ( dejo usa fotos de los acabado de canto que hice con el router a unas mesas laterales).

Works great for the price. Small shop use for little projects. Does the same job as the expensive top brand ones would do.
