Pros & Cons
Pros
The product attaches seemly with the router and has ease of use. Interchangeable between the cordless and corded models. Can be used for pattern routing, dovetail routing in a dovetail guide, etc.
This product is easy to hold and maneuver. The lockout takes some time to get accustomed to. Makes a versatile router even more versatile.
The depth rod has a macro adjust push button feature-easy to use. It has a micro adjust knob, which is easily accessible. There are three depth stop turrents, set at preset distances, with screws to micro adjust those preset depths.
Solidly built plunge base,smooth plunge action. Plunge action is smooth and repeatable. It couldn't be more smoother of this.

You’ll probably need the guide bushing adapter to mount your guide bushings that should come with the tool in my opinion but nope that’s gonna be extra
