Please help me choose. I recently posted about which router to
purchase and have narrowed it down to two.


1) Bosch 1617EVSPK which comes with RA1054 Deluxe router guide. The
price for this is $309 (CAN) + taxes


2) Triton TRC001 for $259 (CAN) + taxes.


Please give me your opinions. I really only want to buy once.


Cheers

I have 8 routers, some of which actually still work. I have been
making sawdust for many years. I recently purchased the little brother
to the Triton TRC 001, the M0F001KC. Maybe I'm in the honeymoon phase
but I have to say it looks like it's going to be my all-time favorite.
Either I am getting deafer from shunning ear protection all these
years or this Triton is the quietest router I have ever used and
that's only the begging of the positive aspects I have noted thus far.

I was at the Busy Bee store tonight and picked up the Big Triton but
was really liking the little Triton. The big one comes in a cardboard
box but the little Triton comes in a nice case with a bunch of
accessories. Will there be a big difference between the 2.25 and the
3.25 HP routers? The little Triton was $199 and the big one was
$259. Any advice on which one to buy. Should I keep the big Triton
or take it back and get the smaller one?

Uuuugh, this is really frustrating.
