Review: Très bonne machine, juste un temps long avant de le recevoir.
Review: I use this small bosch router to 1/2 inch hand round over the edges on these prototype guitars as its quicker than having the big machine do it. The hand router is nice as it does not have a massive kick like some larger ones but has more than enough power for this type of work. I have used it extensively on Ash mahogany and rosewood and it performs well giving a clean finish needing just normal sanding through the grits. The battery life is bettere than I expected to be not as long as some larger devices but with the two batteries I have never run out of power so could not finish a job and recharge time is quick. If you are a jobbing kitchen fitter or have a lot of trim work to do then better served with with either a mains or larger battery router but I now own two of these and love that they are easy to use dont kick like a mule with a nice soft start but have power to rock through serious hardwood and not have issues.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by A***E on 24 January 2023*

Parfait pour réaliser des finitions rapidement, à emporter partout (très léger). Puissance largement suffisante pour des petits travaux, très surpris par son côté peu bruyant. Très bonne autonomie (essayé avec batterie 3,0ah). Bonne maniabilité, outil solide et très bien pensé : - Clip pour descendre et remonter rapidement tout l'arbre, - Clip blocage moteur fixe pour retirer la fraise (pas besoin de rester appuyé dessus), - Vis micrométrique.
