This is a router table top without a full table stand, and it does not work with the Porter Cable 7518 Router. Besides that it seems to be a good table. I sent it back for a refund for a product that works with my router, and it is a complete stand alone table for my workshop.

When I laid the straight edge accross the table to level the throat plate I discovered that neither the table, nor the throat plate were flat. If you will be using it for joinery it will not work for you.

perfect for the beginner! with feather boards and easy adjustments even the clumsy can make a good job of it. if the table was deeper, so you could use a feather board in the miter guide on wider pieces of wood, and if there was more adaptability in the router mounting plate it would be even better. I found, despite the large quantity of holes in the plate, most routers all only fit one set of holes, or none at all. Still it made me look good!

I bought this router table about a month ago and have loved everything about it. It’s easy to use and the tabe top is made of top-notch material. And although my router was not listed on the list of routers that this table accepts, the infinite number of screw holes made my router fit just fine. I would recommend this table for the beginner-intermediate woodworker.

Bought this as my first router table and love it. So many really well thought out features. Accurate routes, easy to use, well made and really portable. The only downside is a really flimsy plastic plate that holds the ON/OFF switch. This should have been made much sturdier. Bosch has really come up as my favorite tool company the last few years.
