    The lack of a palm router is literally the main reason I decided to go full steam in Dewalt's direction when it comes to my cordless tools. Wish Bosch had a greater selection of cordless tools as I own some corded tools and like them very much.

    Ive changed my main tool set up makita to Bosch. most of time I use angle grider and hammer drill. in my case Bosch is the best choice. definitely Bi turbo and their X lock is the best. but the old non biturbo models are not really.. also Bosch has not many range of power tool line up. End up using several other brands Hikoki and Milwaukee... honestly its very hard to use only one brand set up regardless of brand.

    • @viking.designs

    I am a proud owner of bosch power tools : GSR 18V 50, GSB 18V EC, GDS 300 ABR, GDX 18V 200, GBH 18V 26, GOP 18V 28, GWS 12V 75, GLI Variled
    I stick with bosch because its power tools, even though have lower specs and capabilities compared to other brands last for years and also very durable. Accidentally drop the tool onto the ground? just pick it up and continue with the work. Other brands will either shatter or inoperable after the incident.

    Hi, I have pretty much the same kit as you! Another thing I think Bosch should release is a AC/DC 18V adapter so we could use mitre/table saws with mains power when available. Regarding nailers Bosch has got one know, but I don't like the flywheel system, so I ended up buying a 16Ga Hikoki (air spring).

    It's a shame that Bosh does not have an 18V trimmer/palm router! All competitors have cordless trimmers but Bosch does not.

      You are right. Currently, Bosch has an 18V trim router, but it's a green "Home and Garden" model and does not compatible with the Professional 18V GBA or ProCORE batteries.
      I have also just found the new Bosch GLF 18V-8 PROFESSIONAL trim router on the Bosch Philippines website, but it's coming soon, not released yet. According to a Reddit user, it won't be released by October this year. Anyway, the GLF 18V-8 has the following excellent features and is worth waiting for.
      • Brushless motor
      • ⁠Variable speed up to 30,000 rpm
      • ⁠Constant speed function for stable cutting
      • ⁠Restart and drop protection
      • ⁠Easy to adjust cutting depth feature with the cog wheel and metal sleeve
      • ⁠6 mm, 1/4'', 8 mm collet
