Freud Router Table
By Clayton T. Whisman
All-in-all this is a pretty good router table for the money. I did not experience the plate leveling problem another reviewer talked about. Mine was about 1/4" below the table surface before I raised it with the leveling screws. I did however run into an issue with the substandard hardware included to assemble the table. A lot of the nuts had burs in their threads making them difficult to start at times. Virtually all of the nuts had the thread hole drilled off center, not that this hurt anything, but just shows how cheaply made they are. It would have been nice if the table top had been pre-drilled for attachment to the stand, but it wasn't, so you will have to spend some time centering the stand to the top and marking the hole locations. The stand does not come with any remote power switch for your router so you will need to purchase one or reach under the table everytime you need to turn the router on or off (or plug and unplug the router cord from the wall). On the plus side the stand is sturdy once assembled and has a nice powder-coat finish. I absolutley love the micro-adjust fence (although they could have made the fence a bit higher and longer, but it is easy to make your own fence and attach it to the micro-adjust hardware).

Very Pleased
By mr.mgb
After reading other reviews I was a little concerned. To my relief this table is very sturdy, precise, and very wellconstructed. Had no issues with hardware or setup. Assembly was very easy attaching table to stand was very straightforward. It took only 11/2 hours to assemble and setup. The only complicated thing was drilling the plate for a Makita3 1/2 hp. router but this was also easy if you take your time and measure twice drill once. I would highly recomendthis equipment for anyone doing quality woodworking.

Hardware and what they don't tell you.
By Innkeeper 06
The hardware that was shipped was not what was called for in the instructions. The instructions call for carriage bolts and lock washers. A less than satisfactory replacement hardware was substituted. The Instructions appeared to be interpreted from another language and was difficult to follow, I have a masters degree and it was difficult for me. The cd that accompanied the product was crushed and the Seller is reluctant to replace. The aluminum insert is not predrilled to accept anything except a Freud router, So if I was to buy this again I would go ahead and buy the Freud router to go along with it. Overall I am happy with it but these few little pitfalls are annoying when you think you are buying top end equipment.
