This is the one.  Mine is six or seven years old now and has been used for everything from trimming siding around a shed window (don't ask!) to cutting mortises for a craftsman bedroom set.  I even stupidly used it with  a panel raising bit for some cabinet doors (something I now do with a 3HP  variable speed router).
I like this router because it is reliable,  powerful, reliable, easy-to-use, reliable, and lightweight.  I replaced the  original collets with the newer style "always-release" collets, a  change I heartily recommend.  I suppose they now come with the newer style  collets.  I bought a spare base and leave it mounted in my router table all  the time.  It takes just a second to spin the router into the table.  I  like the looks of the newer routers with their built-in dust collection,  but -- having used a sander with a dust hose -- I wonder how practical they  are.  It seems that it would be much harder to handle with the dust  hose.
My only dislikes are the 2-wrench collet removal system and the  a-little-hard-to-get-at ON/OFF toggle switch.  Some kind of self-locking  mechanism that works with a single wrench would be nice, and I'd like to  see a bigger, easier ON/OFF.
It's pretty much one of the perfect tools in  my collection.
