Unhappy Bosch 1617

I recently used my bosch 1617 and discovered the switch is bad. It was really a humbling experience. My friend brought out his 20 year old $10 yard sale router to finish the job. well so much for my pride in bosch tools.

You should have pride in your Bosch router. You bought a quality tool from a manufacturer that stands behind their products. Contact Bosch with the model & serial number and they will make it right. If you have any problems send me a PM and I will assist you. So far Bosch's track record is 100% on problem resolution.
