This or the cordless one? I'm thinking maybe I should wait for the cordless one to go on sale. I have a beefy Bosch and am thinking if I get a compact, I should get one as mobile as possible.

I'm new to woodworking and was planning on getting something corded to make a router table for joints and edges. Any input if this is a decent router? I just got a cordless router that I haven't used yet.

I'm new to routers but looking to pick one up to do my door hinges. How does this compare to the Ridgid originally priced at $130:
https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGI.../100337039

But available in a combo pack for $89?:
https://www.homedepot.com/p/RIDGI.../202488411

Basically get the LSA and sander for $20 more than the Makita one, but I want to make sure the Ridgid router is a reasonable alternative to the Makita. Original price point is pretty close.

Edit: The strike through price in ebay is likely what the refurb price normally is, as it's substantially higher at HD.

It depends on the use case I think. I am gonna have long run and semi auto setup for this router so I need the power supply to be there all time. Same time I got a Bosch dust extractor which can trigger but corded device so this is the perfect fit for me.

If you don't need this cord to trigger any vacuum machine or you only gonna use this for a short time with a lot of manual move, yeah a cordless could be a better one -- and that goes on sale more often than this corded one

I read a bunch of reviews on YouTube and all my takeaway is this is a reliable router and won't overheat with long run.
But I haven't used it yet so... For 70 bucks and 2yr warranty I just went as no brainer

Damn, was hoping this router would support Wifi 6E and 2.5GB ports.
Was waiting for the "no hdmi, pass" comment but this will suffice

I have this router and like it. I use one by hand and have another one as the spindle on a cnc machine. I have another bigger beefier Skil, but honestly for the majority of trimming, I use this router because it is much easier to maneuver with just one hand.

I'd recommend getting a bigger router for a dedicated router table. You want as much power as possible for that job. This is more for detail work or small jobs like putting a round-over on an edge. The Bosh is a good choice for the lager router.
