Review
Bosch has combined power and performance to create a plunge router that's ideally suited for virtually any application. The powerful 3-1/2-horsepower Bosch 1619EVS offers variable speeds of 8,000 to 21,000 rpm and a soft-start feature that minimizes startup torque. With a router this big and powerful, it's especially nice to have the motor start up gradually, as opposed to jumping to life the way other models do. Complementing the powerful motor, the 3-3/4-inch base opening allows this router to accept large bits, including raised-panel bits. The 1619EVS maintains a constant rpm, too, no matter what knots or gnarls a bit encounters, thanks to Bosch's Constant-Response Circuitry. And the convenient front spindle lock makes changing bits a snap between applications. But perhaps the most unique feature of the 1619EVS is its exclusive under-table setup system, which lets a user make depth adjustments as easy as 1-2-3. --Carl Thress
