Richard ★★★★★

The 1/2-inch diameter makes quick work of dado cuts, and that full inch of cutting depth let me hog out material without any burning on hard maple. Cuts came out glass-smooth, exactly what I needed for the drawer bottoms.

Joshua ★★★★★

The 1/2-inch cutting diameter with a full inch of cut depth handled my dado stack setup without a single wobble, and the edges came out glass-smooth on the first pass through plywood. It's got that solid, balanced feel in the router that makes you trust it immediately.

Alexander ★★★★★

Finally ran it through some hard maple and it left a finish so clean I barely needed to sand. The 1-inch cutting depth handled my deep grooves without a second pass.
