Einhell Professional Cordless Palm Router Tool 18V Power X-Change, Brushless Motor, 40mm Stroke Height, Fine Depth Adjustment, Without Battery TP-ET 18 Li BL Hand Router Woodworking

This is a lovely little trim router. One of the reason I chose it was that I already had some Einhell batteries. In reviews this router seemed to be second only to DeWalt palm router, but much cheaper. I already had a lot of quarter inch diameter router bits, but this Einhell router DOES NOT have a collet for 1/4 " bits. It takes 6mm bits which are different enough not to fit. Solution is easy. Buy a quarter inch collet. The Makita 763637-1 Collet Cone is perfect (and available on Amazon). Now I can use all router bits. It is a pity that Einhell does not include such a collet in the box. In use this little router is lightweight and reasonably quiet. It has proved powerful enough for anything I have used it for: creating lettering on signs, rounding edges, etc. It does come with guides, dust extraction connector etc, but I haven't used those. I am very pleased with this item.

The cutter is very good, but you have to buy an additional 1/4 collet because it is not included in the kit. The only drawback I see.

This is an amended version of my original review. I originally gave the product 2 stars and stated that I was not impressed by the fact that the collets were metric and that you couldn't use imperial sized shank bits, which are by far the most commonly found. You can't even use standard imperial collets that come with other routers as they just do not fit. This meant that I hadn't been able to use the router at all since buying it a few weeks earlier. I have now since found the spare 1/4" collets on Amazon that fit Makita routers which also fit these Einhell routers and are now able to use the router. The router works very well, and due to already owning a considerable amount of Einhell power exchange items, I have a good collection of batteries to keep it going. The router is very comfortable to hold and the height adjustment is good, the thumb wheel adjuster works well. Overall, it's not a bad piece of kit for the money, but it is still annoying that you have to source a collet to be able to use your collection of imperial router bits, and because of that I can only give 4 stars instead of the 5 that I would usually give to Einhell products.

Good tool but you need to be careful with it as it can catch you and jump , I've been using it for trim cutting. Does not last long but I only have a 3amh battery. For the price I'm happy with it.

This is one of my favourite budget tools. I made a shaker style set of cupboards. My only issue is that the window to release the collet is narrow and requires some small adjustable pliers to operate. And would prefer the screw for the window was hand screw.

Small. Powerful an easy to use

Works very well, im impressed with its performance. I do have a problem it only comes with 6 & 8mm collets and not standard 1/4". There is no collets you can buy to fit from einshell to fit 1/4" bits. SO i bought new collets that will fit 1/4" bits and machined them to fit

Good quality for the price, needed to purchase additional collets but that was no problem.

Çok memnunum çok güçlü bir ürün 4 Ah pil ile kullanımını tavsiye ederim.

No soy profesional de la madera, pero se nota la diferencia de esta maquina a la anterior que compre en otra tienda china la cual devolví al día siguiente. Tengo de taladro de la misma marca y la batería es compatible, vamos un lujo para mis bricos caseros.

Funkar utmärkt, och känns väl byggd. Fantastiskt med batteri p handöverfräs

Funziona molto bene , non avere il cavo mente si lavora in certe situazioni agevola molto il lavoro ! Utile anche il led per illuminare la zona di taglio !
