    • My research said this was the best router table for the money…..
My research was right….this is a solid table, while it is a little bit challenging to assemble and zero in, once that is done, it works great, I paired it with the Bosch router and as one would hope, it mounted flawlessly. The table has adequate safety features with the switch. The only minor draw back is the dust management system, but every router makes a mess! Overall its a good table and I am glad I purchased it. ... show more

    • A Winner.
Disclaimer: I'm a wannabe woodworker headed for retirement and a mechanic of 40 years experience. Assembly was a breeze really. I got it mounted and running in 90 minutes. Identifying and sorting all your parts first will help. Having a ratchet with an allen-head socket will speed things along too. Although I would have preferred a full sized router table with a cabinet, my limited space made it impossible. (If I told you how small my shop was, you probably wouldn't believe it.) Naturally, in the process of buying something I really didn't want to buy, I did lots of research. I buy with value in mind employing a computation of price, quality, quantity, reputation and life cycle. I have NO allegiance to any brands or where any product is made. I had a chance to see and touch some of the competing models of bench top tables including Bosch's other model 1171 and rejected them all for one reason or another. The numbers (including a great sale price from Amazon) landed me on the RA1181 with trepidation after reading many reviews and not being able to get my eyes and hands on one. As a mechanic/technician, I'm fairly picky about machine tolerances so, I was a bit put-off by some of the reviews I've seen complaining about warped tops. I fully expected to go into this with having to do my own machine work to the top in mind. As soon as I opened the package I went over the top with a 12 inch machinist's bar and a feeler gauge. I did it again after assembly. I found no high points and the lows did not exceed 0.004. I don't know about everyone else but, that's damned near perfect and less of a variant than I know I'll experience from the materials (wood) I'm working with. Wood, depending on how dense the species is, will expand and contract over time, humidity and temperature at least as much if not more than 0.004. If you want better than that, I would recommend prying out a few grand for a cast iron shaper. Testing by bridging the over the insert found it dead-on. That's good enough for me. I found the fence to be fine. The hardware is robust enough that they all stay put during operation and should last. I saw some complaints about the fence material. The metal extrusion is also dead on and the faces are what appears to be melamine. Good enough when you consider that they are sacrificial. Replacing them shouldn't cost much and they shouldn't really be replaced with anything other than what they are. I really like the dust extraction feature. Some bigger chips do fall underneath but, the flyable dust seems to be getting sucked up pretty well. I'll put the efficiency, conservatively, around 70%...'your mileage may vary'. The included shims to set up for edge jointing is a nice touch and I've used it twice already. Works great. Speaking of 'nice touch', there is an outlet to support your shop vac or whatever you're using as a dust extraction system, a real time saver. No Miter Fence? The track on the table is not for a Miter Fence, it's for the feather boards. Everything I've studied says that you shouldn't use a miter fence on a router table or any other tool that has a parallel, rip, oriented fence. I square up a piece of scrap and tack a guide on the end so it follows the edge of the table top. Works fine, quick and easy to do and provides a nice back-up to prevent tear out. Downers: Of all the dimensions I was able to find prior to purchase, there was no mention of the base. There is a dimensional diagram on the box but, still no mention of the base bottom. I incorrectly assumed the dimension would be the same as the top. Be warned that the base, at the mounting holes, is wider than the table top. It didn't fit the workbench I had to make in advance of receiving the tool. I wish the carriage bolts in the feather boards were a little beefier but, that's only a little annoying in initial set up of a project. Yes, the base of the table is plastic but, it's made with enough ribbing support that it's very strong. The unit doesn't rack at all. I just wish the same theme was followed with the switch fascia. It's sort of adequately supported on one side only and feels cheesy as it deflects when operating the switch. But, it does work and we'll see if it lasts. I'll just have to discipline myself to use my fingers rather than my knuckles like I do all the rest of my tools. Summary: Other than those couple of nit-picks, I'm pleasantly surprised by the convenience and functionality of this tool and would recommended it to the small-shop woodworker without much reservation. I've done a couple of projects with it, got no surprises and it has already paid for itself in saved time and aggravation. The days of having to whack together all sorts of elaborate jigs to compensate for not having a router table are over, thank goodness. ... show more

    • Well Designed-Solid Product
This is a well designed and solid product. It was simple to assemble (does take about 90 minutes). It fit my 30 year old Craftsman Router and works great. The table top and fence are made out of high quality Aluminum. I am very pleased with another Bosch product!

    • A fine bench router table, but be prepared for plastic base
This router table works well with my Bosch plunge router. I've used it mostly to put edges on 1x3" pieces used to make cabinet doors. It has a nice solid metal table (steel?) The inlay seems to be made of aluminum, and rests on 6 leveling screws in the inset of the table (and the router attaches to this). My Bosch router's depth control is extended to the surface of the inset, allowing the depth of cut to be adjusted without messing with the router. It is hard to get this inlay really level with the rest of the table, but after it's dialed in, you won't need to change it. Dust collection works well-- better than hoped for. The thing that surprised and disappointed me was that the picture gave me the impression this whole thing was going to be assembled and made of metal. However, it is neither. The green base is made out of molded plastic pieces that you put together with screws. The table mounts to that. The front panel with the (somewhat flimsy) on/off switch is made of plastic. But the business end of the router, from the table to the fence, is made of metal (the fence is aluminum with two composite pressboards that can slide along the aluminum fence to support the work.) Although I almost returned this when I opened the box and found a jumble of plastic parts, when I finally got it together and tried it out, I'm glad I kept going. It was a good, inexpensive solution that works well. I would buy it again. ... show more

    • Many assembly parts but great router table.
Took some time to assemble router table due to multiple bolt assortment, plastic adjustment knobs, and directions a little difficult. Table is Sturdy and high quality. Even thouigh frame is molded plastic, the important components are structure aluminum. Took a while to level talble base insert but once done it stays level. Missing 2 insert table leveling bolts - plan to contact seller or. Bosch. Works fine with 6 vs 8 bolts but should have all bolts to support plate. This is best table I have seen for novice workshop - definitely for the $$. Have another competitors router table that is OK, but not the quality of this table. I do appreciate Bosch work shop products and have several different units. Oh Ya - price point can't be beat on Amazon. ... show more

    • Excellent Build Quality and Features.
I like everything about this item, and I use it with a Bosch MRC23EVSK Combination Router - 15 Amp 2.3 Horsepower. The metal table top is much better than the alternatives, and provides the necessary precision for high quality cuts, as well as a nice t-track for miter gauges & other tools. Dust collection is not perfect as it's just from the back, but unless you customize a shroud over the router bit, this is what you get will all routers. However, the 2.5 inch hose is the right size for the job, and I would not consider a larger (4"-6") solution. Router mounting and adjustment from either the top or bottom worked well. Basically, I have no complaints with this table. ... show more
