            The Ryobi R160 is not listed among the compatible Ryobi routers but the R161, R162, and R163 are listed. Does anyone know if the R160 is compatible and if not, what is different about the R160 versus the R161 that makes the R160 not compatible?

If the R160 has the same mounting pattern as one of these routes it should work, we just haven't tested the compatibility to confirm.

                  I’d been looking for a router stand to support my 3hp heavy duty router. I heard multiple comments about the Bosch Router Table and they were all positive. I recently opened a woodworks shop and so it was a no-brainer to purchase the Bosch Router. Assembly was a breeze because the instructions were easy to follow. I was extremely impressed to find my router branch in the list of routers that fit this router table. I quickly installed my router and I haven’t looked back. It is very sturdy and it fits my large router like a glove. I truly recommend the Bosch Router Table for large or small routers.

                  Buy something else???
                  Snap in red throat plate sets about a 16th of an inch below the top of the table and is not adjustable. That's by design of Bosch according to their tech support for safety reasons. Routering small pieces accurately is not possible. Also, unless you have a Bosch router, you have to lower and raise bit underneath the table by hand. Was hoping for a table that was ready for use and not needing workarounds to use.

                    Terrible assembly hardware organization
                    This is a one star review solely because of their hardware packaging that they provide for putting the unit together. You’re basically given a large bag of nuts and bolts and within that large bag of nuts and bolts are smaller bags and nuts and bolts. Having said that nothing is labeled at all, and the bolts are very similar in size in terms of length and shape, be careful some machine head type and some wood screw type heads. Also was shorted one of the most significant bolts mount to mount the table to the legs. this falls far shy of the quality I would expect from Bosch.

                      RA 1181 router table - you cut the wrong corner
                      I bought this around 4 months ago. To go along with the 1617 with the plunge base for some summer projects I have been neglecting for some time. First I like all the tools and I even ended up getting the under table base with top adjustment so I could have access to the wooden handle base if I need it. I do like Bosch tools and think you put in a lot of thought when they are designed. I did with hold 1 star for the plastic table inserts on the router table. I can’t stress enough how important it is for the inserts to be flush. Not every piece goes through a jointer or planer before being used on a router table and with this the leading edge of the piece of wood gets caught, quite often. I’m sure I will devise something to remedy the issue but it would be a great asset to design and offer an upgraded and possible aluminum insert. I mean please do. I would not have a problem paying for this. But I will say for the price of the table I get that corners need to be cut. But this corner is not one of them. It is actually a little dangerous because you have to release pressure and finesse the piece through the ring. One day I will most likely upgrade to a different table but this will do for now with my budget. If you do have any kind of replacement in the works please let me know.

                        The router table arrived undamaged and all parts were included. Assembly was simple and straight forward. The table and fence were flat; checked by straight edge L, W, Diagonally. The only modification needed was: I used nylon lock nuts to retain the level screws, since they float in their holes. If they fall out, leveling starts all over. There is just enough exposed thread showing below the table that I was able to put a second nylon lock nut on. These had to have a screw run threw to put threads in the nylon and put them on reversed, since there was just enough threading to allow for 1/16th play, retain the leveling screw and allow for any future adjustments. I also elected to buy and install the BOSCH RA1165 Under-Table Router Base with Above-Table Hex Key - for The 1617 and 1618 Series Bosch Routers. This allows for a simpler transition from table to hand held routing.

                        Not quite what I expected, but passable.
                        I was expecting an all metal router table, the legs on this are plastic. When I opened the box it was taped not glue sealed and there was damage to the box. When I open it up and get all the parts out I carefully examined all of them and found some damage to the fence. I had to wait till Monday to call Bosch Customer Service. After an hour on the phone they said they are sending a new fence.

                          In Store Pick-Up Only
                          I ordered this a few months back and just set it up this week. The package it was shipped in it was a mess and one of the legs was broken. There was no padding other than some bulled up packing paper. I pieced it together, but there were random pain splotches all over everything. Once the table was together is seemed to "work", but my router table combination was extremely loud and the table was only slightly more stable than the routing table I replaced. It is a little concerning that it doesn't seem like this went through any quality control process.

                            You get what you pay for - barely good enough precision
                            This is the second table I've got because the first one was not even close to being anywhere near flat. The insert plate is cheap and they seem to have a natural bow to them. You can eliminate most of this if you win the machinery lottery and by adjusting the leveling screws to flatten it out. The miter slot isn't even close to usable with my Incra miter. The slot is oversized and there's a ton of play. The table near the miter slot has a noticeable dip in it as seen in pictures. You get what you pay for and maybe this is good enough for someone just starting out and wants to get better and inevitably upgrade. Otherwise don't waste your time and save up for something better in a different league.
