Amazon.com Review
Porter-Cable's 1-1/2-horsepower router is popular with woodworkers for good reason. It's reliable, powerful, and exceptionally smooth running--not to mention versatile. While you can get this great tool in a two-handle fixed base, plunge base, or D-handle configuration, this kit--which includes both the two-handle and the plunge base--is the best deal going. We really appreciate Porter-Cable's new autorelease collet, which prevents bits from getting frozen in the machine. It'd be great if Porter-Cable could come up with an alternative to needing two wrenches for a bit change, but this minor inconvenience is far outweighed by the tool's overall quality. In fact, Porter-Cable's focus on simple, quality engineering is the reason for this model's long-lasting success. The router doesn't offer electronic variable-speed control or enough power to effectively double as a shaper, but it is among the smoothest-running routers we've tried, producing consistently clean results. For most applications it offers all the versatility and muscle you need. --Brian Trinen

I couldn't pass it up. Plastic depth ring is broken but I never use that in setting the depth of the bit. Plus there were over half a dozen Freud bits, both 1/4 and 1/2 shank so at that price, I had to snag it. Guess I am on my way to my own collection of routers. 2 Craftsman 1/4" fixed base, a Makita 3 1/2 HP plunge and now this 690. As the saying goes - Ye with most tools wins.
