Pros & Cons
Pros
This is best table i have seen for novice workshop - definitely for the $$. Amazingly, the my ancient craftsman router fits the existing holes. The bolt holes line up perfectly.
The table top is much better than the alternatives, and provides the necessary precision for high quality cuts, as well as a nice t-track for miter gauges & other tools. The router attaches to this. Wish the table was etched in metric with millime... Read More
There is even a dust port in the cabinet that fits my shopvac. Plugging the router and a vacuum into the switch box is a trick.
After it's dialed in, you won't need to change it. It comes with shims for jointing use.
Cons
The table flatness issue seems to be reoccurring so will not be bothering to get a replacement. The miter rail is too large meaning any guides you want to use will need shims. The aluminum top has no threaded features in it so there's no point in it b... Read More
This is a poorly designed piece of junk. There are some very nice qualities to this table, but they are overshadowed by some of the poorly designed parts.
When i tighten things down to a normal level, its pretty much always on the side of too tight. The only way i feel safe is if i put a full two handed twist on the knobs as hard as i can, using my back to torque it too. But of course this are cheap pla... Read More
The insert plate/opening for the router is not standard sized. The aluminum top is sticky * plates, when inserted are not flush with the mounting plate. The leveling system for the plate is difficult to use.
The fence is a royal pain to move because it runs in two slots in the cabinet top. The movable sides of the fence protrude beyond the t-track. The main grievance is that while the feather boards and mdf fence pieces have a nice triangular knob, the fe... Read More

The router tables insert were rounds the bolt did not stay flush and created a bump.
Price
Still for the cost, now that it’s together, no serious complaints.
This isn't expensive so i don't expect too much of it.
Competitiveness
I’ve mounted two different routers (a bosch and a dewalt) without problem.
I don't care which tool brand is your brand, make the exception.
But to my dismay, neither my small bosch palm router or older 2 hp craftsman router were compatible with the base-plate.

And putting it away involves removing the fence and installing it awkwardly on the underside

Inevitably the cheaply made storage containers in the legs will open and spill the accessories everywhere and theyre not big enough to hold all the accessories anyway

It could be significantly improved if the storage containers locked closed more securely
