Title: Excellent Router
Product review: I've been using a router for over 30 years and have had good luck with most routers except the craftman which I have had problems with. I bought the Hitachi router to replaced my craftsman. I like the feel and performance of the Hitachi, however there is some drawbacks with it. First, there's no light within the bit area to help you see the work the bits doing while you are using it by hand vs mounted to a table. I had to ensure I had a lot of light while working indoors. Second, the on/off switch isn't on the handle for ease of use. The on/off switch is located at the top of the router. This makes it awkward when using this router by hand. The price and warranty make up for the two drawbacks I've mentioned.
