Pro's:
The motor is very powerful, I've pushed it harder than you really should. I've had 1.5 inch depth by .5 inch with bits in it and it doesn't struggle. Ergonomics are great, it is very easy to hold and handle.
Cons:
The edge does not exists, it's been out of production for a long time. I've heard you can special order it, but the person I asked at Home Depot said they couldn't. No way to hook a hose to it and trust me, it needs it. I think the Rigid unit is identical and I've been tempted to buy it's vacuum guard. making adjustments with it is ok, could be better. This will crush batteries, They really need a brushless option. Definitely buy the double pack of 6ah batteries.
When you factor the price, how well it performs, it's a great buy. Honestly, you need to spend a lot more for routers that address my cons.
