eh November 13, 2008 I bought one of these reconditioned. Out of the box - worked fine and looked like new. However, soon after within the next 4 months or so i noticed the adjustable speed feature was not working and it would run at full speed and then slow down to the set variable speed and then suddenly rev up to full speed again and so forth. Figured i got a deal so have just set it on full speed. Used the machine for 2 years now - it's actually a great size and weight for trimming, but it is incredibly LOUD. I mean really really loud - this is by far the loudest tool i own and it just screams above the rest. The adjustable speed feature is gone and ONLY runs top speed. The base which is supposed to lock the body in place can slip during use and affect the depth of cut. The height adjustment on the base doesn't really work anymore. Oh yeah and ever since i first used the tool it has always been a positive pain in the neck to change out bits. There is a red lock button you must hold down to lock the shaft to loosen the collet - but it is a real trick to get the lock to engage with the shaft. Again I bought the thing cheap and reconditioned and maybe that has something to do with these problems. I like the size weight and power. But now I'm looking for a non-bosch replacement now with the same features size and weight.

Not what I expected. The router was well used, beat up, but runs. Lock on height adjustment has adjustment nut that is not useable and has to be replaced before I can use the router. I wouldn't recommend purchasing a well used router(factory-reconditioned) from Bosch. It's on the bench waiting to be fixed some day.
