did anyone have experience with the old blue Ryobi cordless trim router?

I found a guy selling a new old stock P600 Ryobi router.
Its two generations back from the current one. they released the green p601 and the new better PCL424 recently

But the older version they are selling is going for cheap and my intention is to use it from basic round overs and hopefully dados in cabinets.

I was just wondering if anyone had positive experience with the blue P600 and if its ability to adjust the depth was acceptable for hobby type projects.

Check to see the availability of batteries as well as their price. Is this one of their universal batteries, or an old model, which will be very hard to find once discontinued. Lots of us have had to toss perfectly good tools because the batteries became scarce and expensive, or were outright discontinued. Some things cheap are not bargains.
