Amazon.com Review
This midsize dedicated plunge router uses the same smooth-running, 2-1/4-horsepower, variable-speed motor found in Bosch's popular 1617 fixed-base and D-handle routers. It features soft start to reduce torque at startup and an electronic speed-control system that allows the tool to keep the bit speed constant even when routing through tough spots in the wood. This router also uses Bosch's unique precision centering system, which aligns the sub base precisely with the spindle, so template work can be done without concern for blade wobble. In addition, Bosch includes an adapter for the sub base that allows it to be used with Porter-Cable templates. Like its cousin--the Bosch 1617 router--this is a very smooth and quiet-running router. It's a joy to use and produces great results. We also appreciate the spindle lock on this router, which allows for single wrench bit changes. We also really like the accuracy and convenience of the fine bit depth adjustment. If you're looking for a well-designed, full-featured, dedicated plunge router, this model certainly fits the bill. --Brian Trinen

From the Manufacturer
The 1613AEVSK is an upgraded router kit with many feature enhancements. The revised base has a 3-5/16-inch-wide base opening with a 2-inch sub-base opening, making it possible to use larger bits. The unit has a 12 amp, 2-1/4-horsepower, 11,000 to 22,000 rpm (no-load) variable-speed motor with soft-start plus Constant Response circuitry that maintains speed under load. The 1613AEVSK also has the popular microfine bit depth adjustment system that allows precise depth adjustment even after setting the plunge position. The enhanced plunge action is very smooth.

The router's one-piece armature shaft provides accuracy and long bit shank capacity. The 1613AEVSK also features the Bosch-exclusive precision centering design for centering optional templet guides. Bit changing is easy thanks to the convenient front spindle lock. The unit includes a removable tool-free templet guide adapter; reversible dust extraction hood with adapter for 1-1/4-inch, 1-1/2-inch, and 35 mm vac hoses; 1/2- and 1/4-inch self-releasing collets; comfortable drop-forged wrench; flip-down chip shield; and carrying case.
