Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The fence adjusts very easily and comes with two sizes of rods. The plastic glides along the front are expandable. Set-up was a breeze, the fence is square and both sides of the fence line up perfectly.

The router guide fits my dewalt 618 combo router. Works flawlessly on the plunge and fixed bases of my dw618 router. Fits like a dream on a dw 621.



Cons

Just one page of legal cya. Feels flimsy and poorly engineered. I'm not even certain it's repeatable.

This guide needs some re-designing. Also very bulky to store in my tiny shop. This is the second 6913 dewalt guide i just received and it's going back for a full refund this time.

The guide looks like it was stamped out of a chinese license plate. Stamped steel guide plate is cheap and was not square. The rod spacing is too far apart.

Just to be inexpensive and claim fine adjustment is a disservice to those of us in woodworking.

Quality


Contrary to some other reviews it is not made of cheap plastic and the quality is evident before you even use it


Nice to use the accessories made for the product


Plea to of useful adjustment but no explanation or instructions with the tool


Missing 2 bolts with the plastic top and corresponding springs i was sent a used tool by the looks of it and zip lock bags

Packaging/appearance


I moved the rods into the other groove to fit my compact router


The thumb screws also got loosened up after turning them a few times and you can use your bare hands to loosen them without using the plier

Competitiveness


Durable and performs as a higher price tool


With the help of a plier i was able to turn the screws further up and cleared the slots completely

    All the complaints i read didn’t hold up


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I see that it is also for their large router and that would be better


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The edge guide was not straight so i had to tweak it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I removed the plastic ones and installed a one piece hardwood guide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    In order to use this for the dwp611 plunge base the 2 8mm rods have to be inserted into the inner pair of slots


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Like some of the reviewers i had trouble inserting the rods into the slots even if i turned the thumb screws up to the max with my bare hands


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I could not insert the 10mm rods to either pair of slots for the same reason


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I figured that the reason for the difficulty was because of the thumb screws
