 Best I've seen September 7, 2008
Beverly A. Taylor
I've been wanting to mount a router in a table and install a router lift also. Most of the lifts on the market fit several different routers but not the one I have. I was looking at buying a new router and a lift for it until I saw this Triton in a woodworking magazine. It is a great machine. It has some outstanding safety features and the lift works great. The machine came in a kit which included bushings, a circle cutting jig and a a bit and collets for 1/4 and 1/2 shanks. Even without the accesories the machine would have been well worth it. I probably saved at least a couple hundred dollars compared to buying a seperate lift and the router to fit it. I highly recommend this router.
Best Router in Current Market August 28, 2008

This is without any doubt one of the best routers on the market.I have owned and used PC's , Hitachi, Bosch and Delta. Triton beats them all with easy use and handling features. Changing bits is a snap on or off table mount. Power switch can be a minor annoyance when table mounted but not enough to warrant a lower rating.If you are a heavy user of a router this is a gold medal winner.

I have never owned or operated a router in my lifetime. My wife and I decided we would construct our own cabinets because we have seven children and the cabinets at Lowes and Home Depot are expensive to purchase and use cheap materials. Imagine a pressed fiber board drawer with little staples holding everything together when your ingenious two year old opens up the drawers to make a ladder to get onto the counter top so they can reach that piece of candy that mom put up high because the child was not to have it until after dinner! I like you, read the reviews and decided on the Triton router. The instructions on the router were complete for a novice to figure out how to use the machine. The controls are easy to use and are precise and hold their position while making the most difficult cuts. The motor is smooth with little vibration leaving one with little to sand after a cut is made. The only issue I had was one of my own stupidity. When the router is in a table the bit should be able to come up enough so that you can get onto it with the wrench to change bits. It never seemed to come up enough and I caused a little damage trying to release the bit with the wrench going down through the table. Remember if you buy this router that it has a safety feature that won't let the bit go all the way up unless the router on/off switch is turned off. Can't be the table is turned off the router must be turned off and then the bit will go up that extra 1" so one can change bits in a few seconds!
Great for the router table May 13, 2008

This is a great product for the router table, since it has above the table adjustment and bit changes (including bit ejection, no more stuck bits). First you must take out the springs for the plunge action for optimum table use.
It has one draw back for free hand routing and that is the on/off switch which is awkward to move to the on position since there is a safety cover that needs to be moved and the switch pushed at the same time. On the router table, you should have a separate in line on/off switch anyway so the safety cover is not used and the switch on the tool is left on all the time. I sold two other routers in order to buy a swcond one of these.
the best router kit April 8, 2008
Gary E. Gaulrapp (Flemington, NJ USA)
I reciently purchessed the triton router to replace a PC router in my router table. I was amazed when I recieved it. This is the best package money can buy. It has everything you could want in the kit. I am using it as a table router and it is a powerhouse. If you are looking for a great set up spend the money and buy this one.
