Nice Table (3/5), Apr 8, 2010
By Carson DeMille
(Richfield UT US)
The table is very nice and heavy duty. However, there are a few things that I do not think are top quality. First, the fence I received was not square. It was off by about 0.0625" to 0.03125" depending on where you measured. MLCS was good to work with and they sent me a new one right away. However, the 2nd fence was about 0.03125" out of square also. They recommended using tape to square it up. I used the tape and am fine with the fix. Then they told me that they only guaranteed a 1 degree tolerance on the fence. However, I disagree with the 1 degree tolerance. The website clearly states a tolerance of 0.01" to square, not 1 degree. That is a big difference. A 1 degree tolerance equates to more like a 0.06" tolerance. I let them know of this but they did not reply. My second dislike is the t-tracks on the fence. They obviously fit the t-bolts that come with the table, but do not fit standard t-bolts used on featherboards sold by popular manufacturers such as Rockler. My last comment is about the phenolic plate. It comes concaved to counter the weight of the router and supposedly sit flush when the router is installed. I installed a 2 1/4 HP router and the plate did not sink down to flush all the way. It still sits up a little. Because of this, when I run a board across it, it deflects down when I push hard enough and makes a slightly uneven cut. This isn't too bad to work around though. I would have considered the aluminum plate, but the opening is not large enough for some raised panel bits. If you don't use raised panel bits, get the aluminum plate for sure. Its not worth saving a few bucks. Overall, for the sale price going on right now, I think it is still worth it. You get more for your money than comparable tables. I would have given it a 3 1/2 stars if I could. They just need to be more accurate or forthcoming in their description on fence accuracy.

I looked a long time at Router tables, and fence combinations before I bought this one.This is a very well put together table and fence for the price. It is very heavy and appears that it will last a long time. I purchased mine with the aluminum insert and the fit with the table is excellent. The instructions for the plate drilling is very vague, you will almost have to sit the router on the place to find the hole centers for your router.
Great Table top and fence (5/5), Jan 27, 2010
By Charles Buckmaster

I recently received this table top and fence. It is very well made and it is very heavy. I made a cabinet that I saw in Wood Magazine that works great with this top. I did have a problem with the fence, the aluminum angle was not square, but I believe it was due to shipping damage. I worked with Mike in MLCS's Technical Support department and was very impressed with the way they handled my issue. I had a new piece of angle in a couple of days, and it was perfectly square. This router table is a very nice addition to my shop. I will be dealing with MLCS in the future. Thanks Mike for all your help.
Router Table and Fence (5/5), Dec 30, 2009

I would give this table and fence 10 stars, very well put together, I was leary when ordering, I was afraid this would be one of those little flimsy tables. Wow was I happily surprised when the UPS driver had trouble carrying it. I also bought the stand, was going to build a cabinet for this table, think I may wait awhile now. OUTSTANDING!!! Thanks a million MLCS!
Warren's Woods (5/5), Oct 9, 2009

I purchased the router top with phenolic insert about 4 years ago. I used a Freud 3 1/2 HP router and never had any deflection. Using the tapes on each side, the fence is very easy to adjust and very accurate. It was necessary for us to move 2 years ago and like an idiot, I sold my router table and top. Now that I am re-established in SC, I will order another top very soon. Very good piece of equipment for the money..
24" x 32" Router Table Top and Stand (2/5), Dec 31, 2008
By Mike Heath
(Southport NC US)
I bought this router table with the phenolic insert (my second mistake) and the stand (my third mistake). The insert deflects noticably resulting in uneven cuts. It addition I have been unable to identify an annoying catch point that catches my stock as I feed it past the router bit. The fence is bulky and difficult to adjust and has warped in the six months that I have owned the top. The melamine on the fence has begun to chip on the edges. The frame is flimsy with no corner supports, causing it to move around if any strain is put on the table. The best thing that can be said for this router table top and stand is that it has motivated me to build by own router cabinet and top at the soonest possible moment.
24" X 32" Router Table Top (5/5), Nov 15, 2008
By Ardan Huck
(Racine WI US)
This is a quality table top, very sturdy, well built with T-Track that really adds a lot of functionality to the router.
I also purchased some featherboards to mount to the T-Track that make this table work very well.
The fence and the dust port work very well.
The knobs for adjusting the fence make it very easy to make fence adjustments and hold it very firmly in place.
I am very happy with this table.
