Triton MOF001 1400w

Hi, there is a compact triton that looks interesting.

Anyone had experience with either of these models?

unless you have largish projects like panel moldings [router table]
or worktop cutting
i suggest you look at router around 8-1100w [1/4"] as the ease off handling will give you far more confidence compared to a larger router
as they can be very frightening with the greater power an weight

its very difficult to hold a large router flat on a 21mm bit off wood without experience even then it can be awkward
 
Yes of course you are right. For the basic projects I have planned too big a router will make it a chore for me.
Had a hold of this yesterday which was quite light and felt comfortable.
Makita RP0900 900W Plunge Router 240V. Because of the plunge and almost the same price I have it ahead of the Bosch palm router I had in mind.
What do you think about the makita?

Got me a couple of b&q vouchers and thought the Trend 1/4" router bit sets looked okay?
 
trend are a good reliable make
they have 3 quality levels possibly more

my suggestion is get a cheap genneric set first
buy a set at the bottom end[2-£3] a cutter then as you decide the ones you use the most go for 10-£20 a cutter
and the very important rebate cutter and alternative bearings around the £40 mark
look at toledo from rutland

and wealdon tools also do a good selection
