    If you hover with your mouse over the UK flag it says Stockport but I am in Marple about 3 mile from Stockport. ..Clive

    Neale mentioned the most important point I think, the ER20 collet of a decent spindle, which is a must.

    If you were to go for a Kress (and I am not advising either way) look at http://www.sorotec.de/shop/Spindle-M...s/Routers-301/ and note the price compared with MD's asking price.

    Either tool will need an enclosure if it is run in an apartment. Both for noise and the wood dust being produced when cutting.
