Never wear gloves using a router due to been dangerous unless you wish to lose fingers been pulled into the very sharp router cutter spinning at high speed. Also when using any router on out side edge of timber rout from left to right never go back wards as you where regular in the video for a few reasons. Firstly kickback, as your not cutting with the blade as it was intended and will burn the timber and quickly blunt your router bit, The ends of any timber should be routed first again left to right to prevent break out of timber fibre's. I've witnessed many fingerless wood workers in my 50 years of using routers and spindle moulders daily in my work as a cabinet maker. I've tried this router while it's value for money the locking mechanism and plastic base could of been improved by making stronger also a slow start as the JCB cheap router has would of been a bonus. I'm certain it has a use just remember routers can be extremely dangous in the wrong hands. Enjoyed your review.

I bought my one at ALDI yesterday morning, and there were three more in stock but, by the time I went to pay for my shopping, thirty minutes later, there was only one left. Other FERREX tools were also selling well. Anyway, I'm very pleased with my unit.

I looked for ages for this but never any stock. I bought the Lidl one for £30 recently which is great but full size so a bit on the chunky side. Like you I've only really used it for rounding over. Plenty of DIY router table guides on KZitem, they look like you'd get a better finish with more control. Might try it this year when all the other jobs are done... Cheers for the video.
