I bought this else-where, at a bit more expense. I've just spent the past two days using this and doing lots of different things, including edge moulding, grooving, rebating and dovetailing. I've had no issues at all. After reading the other review for this I gave the router a thorough once over and all seems fine.I originally bought this as I was having compatibility issues with my other Ryobi router and the Trend CDJ300 Dovetail jig that the Trend Unibase was unable to solve to my complete satisfaction.I'm very happy with my purchase, the only down side being that it doesn't have a fine depth adjuster fitted. However the router instructions give you a part number for one (FHA/009)

I have just upgraded a Bosch POF 500A after many years of long reliable service. I had initially looked at both the Bosch POF 1200AE & Trend T4, trying both units before purchase. The Bosch 1200AE is a powerful, sturdy router, but bit vision is slightly restricted as the body is large and on/off trigger meant some jobs would be an issue.The Trend T4 feels very much like the Bosch POF500A, but just better. The extra weight, makes the router very stable and the 850W adjustable power is ideal. I think the built quality is slightly better with the Bosch 1200AE, but the Trend T4 so far has been a great upgrade and I recommend the purchase.

Bought this router elsewhere as am emergency replacement spindle for my CNC router to finish an urgent project. Didn't need the base (which is a bit flimsy but to be fair it's a light use router). Strapped it to my CNC machine and was good to go. Saved my bacon! If you are looking for everyday use then you are probably best looking elsewhere, however it does the job in a pinch as long as you don't push it too hard.

Bought as a birthday gift for a friend. He is delighted with it and impressed with how easy it and effective it is to use. I have several routers and have been trying this one out for size as a lightweight unit and will buy my own soon. Very useable and has several points over my lighhweight bosch.

Great light weight router, powerful enough for most jobs unless you require 1/2inch bits on an "industrial" scale. Used for hanging 11 oak doors and didn't miss a beat! Worth looking around for best deal as some appear cheaper but then you have to pay postage etc. Absolutely no issues.

This is an amazing piece of kit. The quality is obvious when you first hold it. I've used it to route letters into wood with the Trend stencil kit and this will pay for itself in no time at all. Feels really safe to use despite the cutting ability.

Bought as a fast lightweight second head on a 8 x4 CNC table. Better for carving, Fine lettering and small detail work. Not for continuous use but an economical option for my varied workload.

As you would expect from Trend. This is a great little lightweight router.Works perfectly with the Trend MT/Jig, not too bulky so you can see what your doing with ease.

I ordered this router specifically, because I know how good they are! I'm a carpenter of 40 years experience, and it does EXACTLY what it is intended to do.
