BOSCH PR20EVS Colt 1.0 HP Variable-Speed Palm Router, Quick-Clamp System

Nice little router, easy to handle on those small projects.

sweet little machine. This is a compact but very powerful router. It is easy to use and feels great in the hand. Swapping bits is a bit awkward but once you get used to it, it is easy. I'm happy with this purchase.

The BOSCH PR20EVS Colt Palm Router is a solid, professional-grade tool. The 1.0 HP motor with soft start and variable speed makes precision work easy, while the ergonomic grip and quick-clamp system add comfort and efficiency. Rugged aluminum base and 1/4" collet make it reliable for detailed woodworking projects. A must-have for serious hobbyists or pros.

I have 3 other larger routers just for background. I gave this little guy 5 stars because it is light, powerful and handles extremely well. I used it to round off edges on Ipe decking. Cut through that Ipe like butter. Easy to handle and extremely easy to see exactly what you are doing. it's also not that loud compared to my other routers. Only negative for me anyway was it did not come with a plastic storage case to keep the router, instructions & included wrenches. Add a quality plastic storage case and I would have given it 5 stars, which I almost never give unless everything is perfect.

Pleased with product - exactly as advertised. Solid unit.

First time router user here. But seasoned handyman. So take into consideration when reading my review. My needs will be more on the basic side. I bought this router because I am changing out all those ugly 6 panel, hollow core doors in my house with new solid core single panel door slabs. I needed a router to mortise new hinges and other hardware for the doors. I also bought jigs made for this purpose as well. And this router works well with those jigs. It's smaller and lighter than full size routers making it easier to control when resting on top of a small plastic jig. I am sure I will have additional basic router needs for future projects. I bought this router because I'm a fan of Bosch tools. Pros: Value for the money, speed control, compact size and weight, availability of additional accessories (if needed), quality build, quality brand, easy to use, smart engineering, not very loud, nice long chord. Cons: 1. With the base included in this purchase, I can't see the router bit very well when using. This makes viewing my cut line difficult, especially with the saw dust flying around. But I guess that can change if I add a plunge base accessory. For my hinge mortising project, I have found the jigs that I use to be ultra reliable. I don't need to be able to see the bit while it's cutting. And I get perfect results, despite not seeing the jig too well. So this really isn't that big of a con. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and feel quite confident this tool will last a long time and was a good value for the money.

this is an excellent piece of machinery. I needed a router to cut out 4 feet long 3/8 inch wide slots in 1/4 inch wood for a school project. I originally brought the cheap workpro router on Amazon but their own router bits wont fit their chuck. Returned workpro and brought this bosch and I was done with the job in few minutes. Since the slots started at an offset of 2 inches from both edges, I drilled a starter hole smaller than the bit and was able to cut the slots in one pass. i did not need a plunge router attachment.

Just what I needed for those small projects. It fits my hand nicely and will be a much-needed addition to my wood shop.

this router really works well. Great for small DIY projects around the house. Good quality and easy to use.

Lo único que no me gusta es que no trae ningún accesorio para comenzar a trabajar, no trae ninguna guía, no trae recolector de polvo o adaptador para aspiradora, pero el funcionamiento, la potencia son excelentes. La caja llegó muy maltratada y el router parecía haber sido de exposición comercial, pero lo compre a un precio muy accesible como para regresarlo.

Very handy and versatile edging router which I used for beautify the wooden edges of my arbor. Easy to operate. Good value for money to buy such a reliable and durable product. Strongly recommended to other work work lovers.

Me encantó el producto, es muy cómodo y maniobrable, los materiales se sienten de calidad y la fuerza del motor es muy buena a pesar del tamaño compacto, lo recomiendo ampliamente para realizar esos detalles en carpintería que requieren precisión. Es liviano y muy fácil de cambiar las brocas router, les recomiendo que lean el manual antes de usarlo, si es diferente en comparación con un router grande normal, así evitan accidentes y encontrarán una forma más agil de trabajarlo.
