The Bosch 1617EVSPK is a two-base router kit: one 12-amp, 2.25 HP motor shared between a fixed base and a plunge base. Variable speed runs from 8,000 to 25,000 rpm, with soft-start and Constant Response circuitry to hold speed under load. The depth system pairs coarse and micro-fine adjustment with resettable indicators, and the quick-clamp system moves the motor between bases without tools. It suits woodworkers who want one motor for edge work, template routing and plunge cuts instead of buying two routers. Against single-base routers it adds plunge capability; against trim routers it brings more power and a larger cut capacity at the cost of weight and bulk.

Owners of this kit generally rate it highly for smooth plunge action, steady speed under load and repeatable depth settings. Complaints tend to center on weight and on the motor swap between bases.
The Bosch 1617EVSPK is a combination router kit with both a fixed base and a plunge base. It has a 12-amp, 2-1/4-horsepower motor with adjustable speed from 8,000 to 25,000 rpm. A carrying case is included.
Variable speed, soft-start and Constant Response circuitry are built in. Soft-start reduces abrupt torque at startup, and Constant Response circuitry helps maintain a steady speed under load. The depth system has coarse and micro-fine adjustment with resettable indicators, and the motor does not rotate during depth adjustment.
A quick-clamp system moves the motor between the two bases without tools. The bases have large openings, including 2-inch sub-base openings, for larger bits and a clearer view of the cutline. The power switch is dust-sealed and can be placed on the right or left. It is used for edge routing, dadoes, rabbets and template-guided work with compatible RA-Series guides. Optional adapters allow additional template guides.
