Makita RT0702CX4/2 240V ¼” Router Trimmer Supplied with Trimmer Base

This Makita RT0700CX2 trimmer router has fast become my go-to for fiddly jobs in the garage. Tiny thing but packs a 710W punch with variable speeds up to 30,000 RPM – ideal for edging worktops, chamfering shelf edges or even cutting perfect circles with the right guide. What stands out is how smooth it runs: soft start means no kick, constant speed under load, and the fixed base adjusts depth dead easy with a clear scale. Comes loaded with 6mm/8mm collets, edge guide, template guide and dust extraction – basically ready to go without buying extras. Feels solid too, Makita quality through and through. Used it straight away on some oak trim for a shelving project and it chewed through without fuss, barely any tear-out on clean passes. Not a full-size router replacement but perfect for precision stuff where bigger tools feel clumsy. Bargain for what it does, especially if you’re into DIY woodworking or custom bits.

Best tool I have. Love this router. Easy to handle, light. I guess the only improvement would be the placement of the on/off switch. I think they're all like this but I don't find it intuitive. Apart from that, it's great. It comes with a guide which is good enough to maintain an even line as it doesn't wobble. I don't use the measurements on the depth guide - that doesn't seem every accurate. It's a small router so the base isn't big meaning you have to be careful when routing near the edge and you might need to ensure there's enough support.

I bought this to replace me 400 watt spindle, vastly improved the quality of carve

Bought to put into a router table. As you would expect from a reputable manufacturer, this little trim router is reliable, has enough power to cope with deepish cuts, and is surprisingly quiet.

Fantastic value, Fantastic tool , smooth operation works very well , easy to setup , depth control with mm adjustable toggle, dust extraction included along with square guidance Fantastic bit off kit various speeds 1 to 6 comfortable in the hand perfection at it's best diy and trade recommended 😀

This is a great router. I’ve purposely bought it for my cnc so I can’t comment on how good it is as a 1/4 traditional router. But for the cnc it’s a game changer as I upgraded the original motor that came with the cnc to this router. It seams to be way powerful enough for what I want it for.

Solid product, as expected from Makita. I’ve been using this for about a week on a project and it’s trimming the edges of my boards really well. It’s capable of taking off a nice bit of material without struggling.

Not the most powerful but definitely good enough for small jobs . Worked perfectly to route grooves into a wooden door

la fresadora llegó bien y está , llevo mucho tiempo trabajando con ella y es una maravilla, la recomiendo totalmente.

Article non conforme. Il manque la pince de serrage 8mm pourtant indiquée dans la description merci de me la renvoyer

It's here! It looks good as a Makita should. (I have a Chinese copy here, it is a piece of junk, fortunately it didn't cost me anything. I've never used it, I don't want 30000rpm going south in my hand!) I'm about to put an Australian plug on the genuine one and give it a whurl, I can't forsee any issues as this is my 20th Makita, it is good gear. Thankyou to the team. A happy customer. Edit, After using it, it is very easy to use and will do the job nicely, thankyou.

Ottimo prodotto per lavori di precisione, ha eseguito in maniera eccellente con i dovuti accorgimenti e guide varie , la ricostruzione dei legni del mio gommone e dei comenti

Good quality, powerful, compact, easy to install and remove bits, easy to attach accessories, fits perfectly in table inserts, cable is long and thick and durable.
