I am throwing this out there to all you Pro's and experienced router users.

Which of these two routers would you recommend? I am getting ready to make a purchase, and reading reviews hard to sort out the pros and cons. But to you hardcore users, I know I can count on some reliable advice.

Thank you

Hi Jim

" Bosch 1617EVSPK VS Porter Cable 894PK "

I would select the PC over the Bosch

But that's just my 2 cents
