My advice is not to spend big bucks on just ONE router. Buy several. I'm serious! And see if you can get them used and on sale. I have a 3Hp Craftsman plunge router, a 1 hp Craftsman router, and a 1 hp B&D router I keep permanently attached to my router table extension as part of my table saw.
You never can have too many routers, because there are so many different jobs it can do, AND changing it out and recalibrating it is such a pain.
Remember, used routers are cheap. it's all the parts and accessories that cost the money. Never buy a new one unless you have more money than common sense. My 30+ year old Craftsman looks just as modern today as it did back then.
I still need to get one of those little hand held trim routers like what John uses, but I have been lazy of late, and will finally get around to getting a nice used one soon.
Again, Never Buy A New One!! Buy it used because you can get them cheap! People have high ideals when they get theirs, never use them, and then want to unload them, and you can be the winner!!!
