Looking on screwfix website, I sort of narrowed down my choice of
routers to:

Makita 3620/2 860W 240V Router - which seems to be a good make and
fairly light. On the other hand, it's only 860w and has a 1/4" chuck.

I've had one for 20+ years and its still a favourite. Punches well above
its weight, might only be 860w but it thinks its 1200w.


Erbauer ERB210C 2100W Router - 3 times as heavy as the Makita and
almost 3 times as powerful. 1/4" and 1/2" chucks.

I want to do a kitchen initially. Am I right in thinking that the
Erbauer is the one to go for?

If you want to do masons mitres then I don't think the Makita has enough
wellie or big enough collets.

If you don't I'd say the Makita is a great machine. No soft start, no
variable speed, no lazer lights, just a superb little machine & a joy to
use.

Buy both!
