I don’t normally bug you breaktimers with links back to the Tool Hound blog, but I happen to know there are a few of you on this forum with very strong opinions on Festool. I’m hoping you will take a second and vote, or a full minute and join the discussion (below the survey, not here in Breaktime – please).

They have their place. If you need near total dust containment, and there is no other option, then yes they are worth the money. Personally, I love their routers. I have used bosch and porter-cable and neither compare to the the festool in terms of smooth operation.
