Customer Reviews for Compact Router Kit Variable Speed Fixed-Base 710W Hand Trimmer Tool Installation

I have a massive 1500W plunge router but have always longed for a small trim router. Wasn't prepared to spend big bucks on a whim, so I bought one of these. And I'm not disappointed to the extent that with hindsight, perhaps I should have bought an expensive branded router. PROS; easy to handle, soft start, variable speed, (with eye protection) easy to see what you're doing. CONS; my biggest hate is the chuck, it's a pig to change bits. The depth adjustment is also a bit sus but it somehow works. My mantra is, if the positives outweigh the negatives, it's a good thing. And this Vevor overall is a good thing, especially for the money.

Does what i need it for great little router!

Easy set up, light, comes with router set. Need two spanners to change router bit. Would be better if it had a button to lock spindle.

Very happy with the product. It was orange, and cylindrical, and came with a motor, and cable, and all the tools required to use it. A great buy.

The motor part is terrific! Soft start and variable speed is great. The collets - terrible. It comes with a badly finished single slot 8mm short collet that's very difficult to get to run true (design issue). "Fitted" in the spindle was an ER11 6mm collet. It doesn't fit: wrong taper, wrong length, wrong collet nut. What were you thinking? The package also came with a nicely presented set of router cutters - with 1/4" (6.35mm) shanks. They obviously don't fit into the 6mm collet supplied. Vevor is normally fussy with quality of their sources. This time they slipped up badly! I haven't decided what to do yet. Maybe they'll source some collets that actually fit for me? Does anyone know if Makita collets fit? So I can buy some that run true?

I needed a dedicated router for a circle jig since my jasper jig broke. I paired this up with a 30 dollar jig just for circle cutting. It works good, and a good value for the money. I had a small issue and contacted the seller, and they took care of me in a timely fashion. If it's your first router or a back up just get it you won't be disappointed.

Not all external attachments seem to fit quight right.

Works just as expected. Some of the casting is a little rough but doesn't affect the operation of the unit.

My dad liked it, just what he wanted to buy.

Love the product
