O’SKOOL Motorized Router Lift for 3.5” Diameter Motors

I love this lift! I have limited time using it but I have used it over the past month without issue. Well made, easy to install and set up. If you are on the fence between this lift and a comparable manual lift, go with this one. The only thing I do wish it had was a little faster speed when running it all the way up to swap bits and the travel back down again. Very minor thing.

Works but not well thought out for the customer. No pattern included for the plate cutout. Just a cheap piece of plastic would save lots of effort and time. Most of the electrical components are in plastic cases without proper mounting tabs or holes. Should not need to buy straps. Main controller is in plastic case which appears very delicate. This is a single screw drive so some jerking as it self aligns when moving. It works OK now and is a joy compared to under table adjusting. Probably will be adequate for hobby shop or small operation long term but unknown for drive quality.

Honestly, I give it 4 1/2 stars. Only complaint is that I wish it would move a little faster. Smaller movements for adjusting cut depth is just fine. It's when you have to change the bit is where it would be nice if it were a little faster. I just adjusted my routine a bit to compensate. When ready to change bits, hit the up button first, then take out the insert, then grab your new router bit. Definitely NOT going back to a manual lift, however. It is very accurate and sturdy. No backlash in the mechanism. I really like it.

It really does not work that great it’s not worth the price

Had to replace first item since it did not work but after getting another one it works great

O’skool has a good variety of well made, innovative products at great prices. This router lift is no exception. Great value, well made, and exceptional customer support/service.

I bought this a year ago and had to wait a couple months after before I could install it. After installing it there was an issue with the unit. I reached out to O'SKOOL and chatted with them about the problem. After getting it going again all worked great, after a few more months the unit stopped working again. Reaching out to O'SKOOL about the issue they decided to send me another one. Works great! Great people!! Buy it, you wont be disappointed.

I bought this on a whim. Solid product. I built a dust collection box under the router table and installed this inside. No more getting under the router table. Deducting one star as the manufacturer recommends unplugging the unit when not in use - that requires getting under the table - duh! I added a switch to facilitate that, but I think that should be part of the design. Will see how long this lasts. I am concerned about the dust accumulation on the stepper rod - will see!
