Kreg bench top router table

I had a good look at the new Kreg bench top router table yesterday at my local Woodcraft store. This table has many nice features like a split fence and dust collection nozzle, and is a very good buy for the price. The only item they fell short on is the mounting plate does not have provision for guide bushings or changing the opening size. They are including two plastic featherboards with the table at no charge for a limited time.

Hi, Bj, Thanks.

I've followed the link, but wasn't sure what I was supposed to see. Searching that site for Kreg, I found a WoodCraft video review, although it is probably more an infomercial than an objective review:

That video is about a different free-standing Kreg router table. The one in the video also appears to have a more sophisticated fence than the bench top model.

It looks like the top on the Kreg's is only 1" thick. Maybe the metal under-supports compensate for the thinner top?
