DeWalt's 2 hp Plunge Router [Posted on 2005-08-11] DeWalt's 2 hp Plunge Router is the best choice for a middle of the road place for the plunge router. It's both basic and heavy duty for most tasks. The dust collection port is a added plus improvement over DeWalt's version of the Elu plunge routers. This is a plunge router that defintely has a significant place in my shop but, in my opinion, the plunge router is really not the best router to use for router table use if that's how you plan to use it. Best stick to a fixed base, if that's your need.
Buy Amazon not www.TylerTool.com [Posted on 2006-04-04] Great router kit. I first ordered from TylerTool.com only to wait and wait for nothing because they said it was in stock when you order, then they fail to let you know that they don't even have it in stock. I'm finding out that there is more and more online tool business like Tyler Tools that are doing this type of deceptive selling with attractive low price listings stealing time and money from buyers and legitimate sellers like Amazon. Anyway, Amazon had it in stock and I'm not disappointed.
GREAT ROUTER [Posted on 2007-01-09] The hose connection for dust removal through the column will catch about 80% of the dust, but when you use the base attachment it is 99%,Rated # 1 or 2 by most woodworking tool reviewers, and from my view for the money it is # one. I own several DeWalt tools and love them all,very good tools for the money.But I have no use for there Black and Decker line of tools.
Good router with small ergonomic problems [Posted on 2007-03-03] I bought my DW621 refurbished thru another online company. It is my first plunge router, and has opened a new world of woodworking up for me with this capability. It is powerful and does what it should - I like this tool. I have difficulty changing bits and setting plunge depth due to the power cord and chip ejection port tube getting in the way. All in all, I'm glad I have it.
good until switch wears out [Posted on 2008-02-28] Works great until the switch wears out. The electronic speed control on my unit wore out with very low hours on it. I have a couple other routers that have done 10-50 times more work, and are still going strong. My friendly neighborhood DeWalt repair center fixed it for me. I went to pick it up... $175 for the repair!!! Keep the piece of sh**. $175 to fix a $190 router?!? I did some research, and found out that I'm not the only one with this problem. The electronic circuitry on these units are notorious for failing. I'd suggest a Porter Cable if you want a 2 hp router.
