I specifically wanted the 1 3/4HP PC for handheld use, while the Triton is specifically for table use. Because of that, I've never really done a direct comparison between the two. The bigger bits have been used in the table / Triton only. While the smaller / simpler bits are used in both, the smaller bits don't do much to test the routers' capabilities either for me to compare.
I haven't had any issues at all with the Triton, but in all fairness, when it only sits in the table and only gets turned on once every few weeks, I haven't exactly pushed its' limits either.
When I was shopping for the Triton, though, I wasn't seeing anything particularly negative about the router... (though Amazon reviews show that every router has some detractors).
