The Makita laminate trimmer is a compact corded trim router with a fixed base and a 1/4-inch collet. Its 240 V motor spins at 30,000 rpm in a body weighing about 3.3 lb, so it is easy to steer one-handed along laminate, veneer and edge banding. It is aimed at trim work and light routing rather than heavy plunge cuts. Against variable-speed and plunge-capable trim routers, it trades speed control and depth adjustment range for simplicity and low weight. Owners like the small footprint and steady speed; the fixed base and single speed limit it on harder woods and larger bits.

Owners of Makita trim routers generally praise the light body, steady speed and clean trimming on laminate and veneer. Criticism centers on the lack of variable speed and the limits of the fixed base for anything beyond trim work.
