The Bosch 1613AEVS is a reliable plunge router with a quiet 2-1/4-horsepower motor that delivers a soft start, consistent performance, and variable speeds from 11,000 to 22,000 rpm. The tool also features a number of creature comforts, including ergonomic handles, convenient controls, a smooth plunging action, and fast, precise bit-depth adjustments. Thanks to Bosch's Constant-Response Circuitry, the 1613AEVS always maintains a constant rpm under load, even when running a bit through knotty stock. An easy-to-set knob with six presets controls the router's speed, while an onboard chart lets you know how many rpm the tool is delivering at each level. And, as with other Bosch routers, the 1613AEVS is designed to keep the bit perfectly centered in the router base to ensure more accurate cuts in templates and jigs.

If uou're a beginner, save yourself frustration and money and buy this router. Woodworkers are like model train enthusiasts, nobody wants to tell you anything. You end up spending needless amounts of money, and wasting a lot of time. I use this router for several joinery operations, including dovetails and boxjoints. They all come out perfect every time. It's also excellent for cutting circles and ovals. It works great on almost any kind of wood. I'm a master furniture builder, and I need tools that will deliver precise work-I mean exact. This router does this. I'd say that it is medium to heavy in weight, it is not very loud (I hate real loud tools), and it also works great in a router table. If you do buy this router, think about also buying the accessory guide for it, too(RA1051). You'll be glad you did. This router and the guide both, allow you to fine tune any adjustment that you make. I'm not one for brand names or "high-browed" looking tools. I buy tools because they work. Regardless of your experience, if you want a router that's easy to use, don't want to fuss with with a lot of needless high tech nonsence, and does a precise, clean job every time, then this is the one to get. This is the only router that I've never had to fight. On a scale from 1 to 10, I rate it at 15! I'm telling you, this is the McCOY! I hope I've been able to help someone with this review. J. E. Zottoli Gainesville, Ga., USA18 of 18 people found the following review helpful.1613AEVS Top of the list!By M.B.It was either this one or the Dewalt DW621, the two best routers in this class. For the readers sake I will compare its features to the Dewalt. Both machines are 2HP, both have a smooth plunge but the Dewalt wins in this respect. They both have dust extraction, Bosch via an attachment and the Dewalt built into one of the plunge posts. If you do not hook up the Dewalt's dust extraction you will inhale the dust and eat the chips. They both employ Soft Start and are variable speed with constant speed technology. As for motor noise the Bosch certainly wins, it has half the noise of the Dewalt, and is comfortable to operate without hearing protection. Both machines have micro adjustment knobs, the Bosch's can be adjusted while the plunge is locked, the Dewalt's cannot. The micro gauge reading on the Bosch is much easier to understand than on the Dewalt. I like the 1/8 step graduations on the depth stop rather than the three post adjustable on the Dewalt. This feature is a user preference you can make your own assumption. The base on the Bosch is larger and more conventional than the Dewalt's. As for quality you can't go wrong with either, time will tell. Bosch makes an excellent product, take the quality for the best and study the features you need.13 of 13 people found the following review helpful.A superior machineBy Mark DennenThis is my second Bosch router, the other is the 1618EVS with the D handle. The soft start is a plus, but the key feature of this Bosch router is the indexed depth adjustment and also the fine depth adjustment capability. If you want to get it right, you want this router. It is a pleasure to use.See all 17 customer reviews...Bosch 1613AEVS 2-1/4-Horsepower Electronic Plunge Router
