Milwaukee router a real winner [Posted on 2008-01-18]
This is my second Milwaukee 5625. The original is permanently mounted in my router table w/ a Woodpecker ' Quick lift'. I needed an additional router to compliment my Bosch router when cutting thru-dove tails with the PC dovetail jig. This router is a REAL work horse. Smooth start up, and real power with any material.
Best router for raised panel bits! [Posted on 2008-02-23]
I bought another brand and the motor burned up the 2nd time I used it. I read all the reviews on the Milwaukee so I ordered it, and I got it in 3 days. This thing is a bear and you can't slow it down. I mounted it sideways so the height adjustment is out front. I only use it for raised panels and use smaller routers for everything else. The fit and finish on this machine is 2nd to none! Amazon had the best price and free shipping. I would recommend this TABLE router to anyone!
Milwaukee 5625-20 Router Review [Posted on 2008-03-08]
This is a powerful router. I have it permantly mouted in a router table.
The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, is because of the height adjusment
It will lower just fine, but when raising it, I have to actually push up on the router while turning the knob. To be fair, I don't know if this is a problem with all the routers or just mine. It just seems to me like the threads are too coarse, plus it looks like the female part of the mechanism may be made of plastic. If Milwaukee would fix this issue, then I would say it is the perfect table mounted router.

Less Than Happy! [Posted on 2008-03-19]
I Bought this to replace a Porter Cable in our Shopbot cnc Router.
Initially the smoothness and quiet running was enough to make me Happy.
It also has much more power than the Porter Cable. The downer is
the bearings wore out in half the time of the Porter Cable.
So, I'm going to put in new bearings and give it another shot!
If I have different results I will post them but for know dissappointed!
Great router, but you need to contact the seller before buying... [Posted on 2008-03-28]
...because sometimes the package only includes the 1/2" collet, even though the product description says you get both the 1/2" and 1/4" collets. I bought mine from Amazon, and they had to send me a whole new router that included both, I had to remove the 1/4" collet from that package, then send back the rest. They did fix the issue pretty quick, and paid for the return postage though, so I won't complain much. But if you let them know ahead of time they can fix the problem without this hassle.
A great router at a great price. Hard to go wrong here.
