Amazon.com Review
There's no tool like a router for edging, trimming or cutting, and there's nothing like a plunge router for accurate detailed scrolling or inlay work. Skil's new 2-1/4 horsepower combo router comes with interchangeable fixed and plunge bases (can plunge cut up to 2 inches when using the plunge base). The variable speed motor can perform all the functions needed in a home workshop or on the job site while drawing only 11 amps at full RPM. The 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch quick-change collets accept a wide range of bits and cutters. The Skil 1825's Micro-Fine Depth Adjustment makes bit depth adjustments fast, easy and accurate while the soft-grip handles are ergonomically designed for comfort and ease of use. The wide base opening allows for quick and easy bit changes plus the Built-in Work Light illuminates a pattern or an outline for more accurate cuts. Accepts Skil's 91018 18-Piece Carbide Router Bit Set as well as most other brands of 1/4-inch and 1/2-inch bits.

Ideal for woodworkers, carpenters and cabinet makers.

Applications: Use the Skil 1825 for making cabinets or shelves, decorative inlay work and for sink or fixture cuts in a wide range of countertop materials, as well as for mortising hinge plates or inlays, dovetailing cabinet drawers or edging counter tops. --C. Dwight Barnett

Customer Reviews

Excellent Price and quality
This Router is amazing. I expected a little less considering the low price, it performs much better than expected. I'm currently using it for tenon making and even with the Honey Locust logs I was feeding into it, it doesn't miss a beat. It has the power and versality I would expect from Skil. Highly recommended and if I had to choose again, I would choose the same one.
