$126.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
it is good for a beginner, home ocasional works and even for starting learning woodworking.

having not done any serious woodworking for over 20 years, i wanted to make sure i bought a decent router, but not one that would cost an arm and a leg (just in case i didn't like the hobby).

from www.amazon.com
i also used it for heavier tasks such as routing 3/4" grooves in solid wood.

if you get serious into woodworking, you will wish that you spent more for a better unit.

i purchased this router on a recommendation of a fellow woodworker.
