Summary: Best Out There
Comment: My dad taught wood shop for 30 years. This is all he would buy. Of all the models out there, this is the only ones that would stand up to the every day abuse of his students. I just purchased this to replace my craftsman that I've had for 5 years and only used occasionally.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Flexiable Router
Comment: This is a great and flexiable router. Moving between the two bases is very quick. The ease with which the fixed base can be removed makes it very easy to change bits and make adjustment. Pleanty of power and works great in all task especially cutting dovetails.

Summary: Great Product, Great Price
Comment: When I decided I needed another "mid-sized" router, the choice was simple. I bought my first Porter Cable "690" series router with a plunge base back in the early 90's ($189). It was used professionally for about 5 years and has since been used in my home shop. Other models owned personally, by co-workers and friends have come and gone but my experience with Porter Cable has amounted to hundreds of hours of use with no problems.
I purchased the 693LRPK for two main reasons. (1) Quality. (2) My old router and the 693 fixed and plunge bases are interchangeable.
Some might say it is short on features and needs updating but I don't mind having to use two wrenches for bit changes (no collet lock) and I don't mind the size and weight. I believe it is a direct relation to the power and quality.

Out of the box there are only 2 noticable differances from my original. The on/off switch is no longer a toggle but a rocker type and the plunge base lever is plastic not metal. Use reveals plenty of power with accurate cuts so at this point, I am going to assume the unseen (quality) has changed little if at all.

Summary: Affordable and powerful set-up
Comment: Havent had a chance to take this pup out for a spin but I used to use a similar model in a shop I used to work in. The quality is still there for PC and you can feel it with both the stops and the motor. Feels like your actually holding onto something made to last....which lately has been a new concept!
