The Bosch PR20EVSK Colt Variable Speed Router with Edge Guide is a versatile tool that's ideal for performing custom carpentry, trimming laminate flooring or deck planks, mortising hinges, dovetailing, and a host of other at-home and professional jobs. This router packs big power in a small, compact package for extended comfort and maximum accuracy.

The PR20EVSK Colt Variable Speed Router with Edge Guide offers: Highest horsepower rating in its class. Variable speed of 16,000 to 35,000 RPM Constant-Response Circuitry to maintain speed under load.

Includes router, guide, case, base, collets, and shaft wrenches. View larger.

Rubber over-molded grip allows for stable, one-handed operation. View larger.

Powerful Motor, Variable Speed, and Depth Adjustment for Precise Results
The PR20EVSK owes its robust performance to a 1.0-horsepower (the highest rating for small routers), 5.6-amp motor that spins at a variable speed of 16,000 to 35,000 RPM and has a soft-start that reduces startup torque. Additionally, depth adjustment is simple with the PR20EVSK: just align and lower the motor and then lock the router in position with the clamping level. Micro-fine adjustments are equally effortless thanks to the wheel on the back of the router's base.

To help you match the correct speed to the job, the included instruction manual features a chart showing the speed of each dial position, along with a list of the routing tasks that each setting may be used for.

User-Friendly Features for Flexibility, Comfort, and Reliability
This user-friendly tool offers simple, straightforward operation. First, the collect accepts standard 1/4-inch bits to give you job flexibility, with an impressive maximum diameter of 1-5/16 inch. For added convenience, a front spindle lock on the motor means easy, one-wrench bit changes, but a shaft wrench is also included for those who prefer to use two wrenches.

In addition, the speed dial is conveniently mounted on top of the tool body for easy access. An added bonus, the motor housing has a palm-shaped, rubber over-molded grip that allows for stable, one-handed operation. Finally, weighing about three pounds, the PR20EVSK offers a surprisingly rugged aluminum fixed base that's durable, solid, and reliable.

Constant Response Circuitry for Stable Motor Speed
This model includes Bosch's "Constant Response" circuitry, which monitors and maintains speed under load for consistent performance and overload protection. Constant Response works by detecting tough loads and then increasing power to maintain the selected RPM. Working with stable speed lets you concentrate on controlling the router, so you'll always make clean, burn-free cuts.

Additionally, a quick-clamp system allows the motor to be easily adjusted and moved from base to base. For further convenience, an angled cord exit keeps the router's cord safely out of your work area.

The PR20EVSK comes with a one-year warranty.

This well-designed planer offers fast stock removal and the smoothest finish--exactly what we expected from Bosch. The powerful 6.5 amp motor runs the versatile two-blade Woodrazor system at 16,500 rpm with a protective shield that covers the section of blade that's not in use. The fence itself deserves applause--bevels are accurate and easy to adjust. We love the chip ejection as well. Too many times, we've tried tools with an exhaust system that might as well not be there, but this one actually moves the removed stock and it's multidirectional! Deep cuts are possible in just one pass without bogging or chatter. There's even a spring-loaded park rest stand that protects blade and workpiece. The saw is a special shape that allows easy start-up in the middle of a workpiece. Accidental starts are a thing of the past because of the lock-off release button. Bosch thought of everything; we're impressed. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

This is a factory reconditioned product. Reconditioned generally means that the product has been returned to the manufacturer, who brings the product back to like new condition. Some products may contain cosmetic blemishes. Includes 1-3/4-in 15 degree Coil Roofing Nailer - U/RN46

If you're looking for unparalleled power, here's the saw for you. In addition to the sheer brawn, Bosch really has finessed this machine, and the beauty is in the details. Our favorite feature is the Direct Connect system: The tool itself has no power cord, just a receptacle for your extension cord and a super locking mechanism to keep the cord connected. It's so secure that you can actually lower the tool off scaffolding to the ground by the cord. Next time you accidentally cut the cord, it won't put the whole saw out of commission: Just grab another extension cord. Storage is a breeze, too, because there's no integrated cord to tangle with. We love the left-side blade for unmatched line of sight, the worm drive gear train will hold up for years under the toughest conditions. Changing depths and bevels are fast, easy, single-lever operations, and you'll like the lower guard design when slicing off a narrow piece because it does not snag. If we had to name a down side, the saw is a bit heavy, but that's a negligible detail in a piece of machinery like this.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Since Milwaukee came up with the reciprocating saw in the first place, we have very high expectations for every model they put out and this one does Milwaukee proud.

At the heart of this saw is a rip-roaring 13 amp motor that does not hesitate no matter what you’re cutting, whether it’s studs or large diameter pipe. Despite the awesome power, it handles beautifully, with so little vibration it’s remarkable, and the weight of the tool is balanced perfectly for minimal user fatigue. And in the interest of ergonomics, probably the best innovation on this saw is the handle. It rotates a full 360-degrees and locks in at 45-degree intervals, so you can adjust the angle to whatever odd situation you might find yourself in, and it saves tremendous strain on your body.

The speed control dial lets you set a range, and the trigger pressure gives you variable speeds within that range for absolute control. At full speed, you’ve got 3,000-strokes per minute with a 1-1/4-inch stroke length, and you can choose between orbital action, which gives you fast, aggressive cuts, or straight blade movement, which delivers a surprisingly fine cut.

We like Milwaukee’s Quik-Lok blade clamp for fast, easy blade changes. And we love the flexibility of installing the blades with the teeth facing up or down, making your job even easier. Just twist the collar and insert the blade all the way in; release the collar and a spring-loaded mechanism locks the blade in place.

And talk about flexibility: Even the shoe adjusts, and without a tool. You can move it effortlessly both forward and backward into six positions, letting you use untouched parts of the blade for longer blade life, and it’s great, too, in awkward positions.
