Yes I did. I was playing with it last night as a matter of fact. I think I mentioned in my PM that my budget got shrunk so I had to scale back my list of higher end models. I ended up with this one.

Mastercraft Maximum Router

I normally shy away from Mastercraft tools but their Maximum lines are usually exceptionally good. It had reviews on several independent woodworking sights comparing it to much more expensive models like Porter Cable and Dewalt (Dewalt'scontractor grade line, not their new consumer line junk.)

Might not be the right choice for a daily user like yourself but I'm confident it will do my half dozen projects a year quiet nicely. Also with the 80 dollars off sale and my 79 dollars in Canadian Tire rebate coupons I've been hording for years, the price was too good to be true.
