3.25-HP dual-mode precision router with above-the-table height adjustment and a rack-and-pinion plunge system for micro-accurate cuts. The dual-mode design works as both a plunge and fixed-base router, and the shaft lock allows single-wrench bit changes.

Cons

Very heavy at 17 lbs

Don't buy this if…

The above-table adjustment is designed for router table use; attempting to use it handheld with the adjustment mechanism exposed is awkward and unsafe.
