Product Information

Using their expertise in sensor technology, software, and services, as well as their own IoT cloud, Bosch offers connected, cross-domain solutions from a single source. All power tools are subject to minimum warranty of 12 months, most offer an extended warranty when your tool is registered online. While I haven't personally tested this feature as I'm afraid of breaking the tool, it's good to know that the manufacturer has taken measures to protect the tool from damage. All-in-all, I do recommend this router as long as you don’t push it beyond its predetermined limitations.

Comfortable, ergonomic handling thanks to the innovative and compact shape, low weight, and optimised balance point - this Bosch 12V edge router provides perfect control! Most manufacturers have approved service agents and in the first instance it may be quicker and easier to take the tool to them with your proof of purchase. With it's low size and weight it allows for a uniquely small grip circumference giving ideal hand positioning. It is so convenient that it latches and you no longer have to hold a fiddly little button in while you're wrestling with a spanner! The unique shape of this router helps provide accurate precision when using, not only this but it is also designed to be more comfortable to the user, therefore, reducing the chance of fatigue.But the router shows so little vibration that I find the set screw a tad overkill-though kudos to Bosch for being thorough. It's easy to handle, precise, and has some great features that make it stand out from the competition. The Bosch GKF12V-25N compact cordless router looks unique, if not “odd,” but performs surprisingly well despite a few quirks. Please note if you do not register directly with Bosch to extend the warranty cover, you are only covered for 12 months industrial warranty, well worth a few minutes of your time.

When running it single handed, the 2Ah battery is ideal because it keeps the weight low and maintains the tool’s balance. There are two ways to lock it in place: one, using a knob, and two, using a set screw housed in the base.And because the handle has a smaller diameter than any other router, it's easy to grip firmly and comfortably. The GKF12V-8 Router gives the trade innovative lightweight design for total cordless routing control plus the narrow grip and large footplate ensure overall safe control at all times. In a pinch, it will cut shallow rabbets in softwoods and works well for mortising hinges or striker plates. Perfect control - Safe and comfortable tool guidance due to new bit to tool formation and enlarged contact surface of food plate. The Bosch GKF 12V-8 router fits perfectly in the 12V woodworking range of Bosch Professional tools and is fully compatible with the Bosch professional 10.

Its innovative shape, low weight, and ideal balance point are optimized for comfortable, ergonomic handling. Each year, Bosch launches more than 100 new power tools into the global market, with a vision of mobility that is sustainable, safe, and exciting.
