The Bosch POF 1400 ACE Router is well designed. It has a dust extraction port which helps to keep your work area clean, and comes with a convenient carry case for easy transportation and compact storage. We like the soft-grip nature of the handles as it promotes comfort and enhances control. The router also allows for fine depth adjustment (to an accuracy of 0.1mm), and lets you insert the template guide easily.
