Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am planning to build some office cabinetry and needed a new more powerful router. I chose Porter Cable from past experience. I found two choices for making cabinet doors and drawers using a router table. The Model 7519 and the Model 7518 which had 5 variable speeds. The two routers were the same except for the 5 variable speed. I chose the 7519 because it was ... cheaper. I didn't know exactly what the 5 variable speeds would be used for.
Well the router arrived in 3 days, thanks Amazon.com. Upon reading the instruction manual, there was a caution notice twice within the first five pages, that said. WARNING,WARNING,DANGER,DANGER (you have to say this with your arms waving up and down) "DO NOT USE router bits with a diameter in excess of 2 1/2" except when using Model 7518 set for either 10,000 or 13,000 RPM". Well that just shot down all the work I had planned for this router. Having not used it I gave this router 4 stars, because I think it would run like a workhorse, except with large diameter bits. So I will be sending it back and purchasing the 7518. I should have spent the extra bucks! Looking forward to the new 5 speed.
