Fits my brand new 1617EVS router/plunge router combo perfectly. Genuine Bosch quality, and great price.

Works for standard base, but not plunge
by Justin (4 out of 5 stars)

It was unclear from the reviews and description that this is missing one piece to support the plunge base. There is another kit--RA1173AT--that has the additional plunge base piece as well. Biggest frustration is that Bosch customer service was very unhelpful. Now I'm stuck having to consider buying both kits since I've already use this one for the fixed base. For the fixed base this collects the majority of dust though.

Sucks that dust right outta there.

A little difficult to tighten onto the router if you have fat fingers; a slot in the screw head would make it a lot easier. It sure works well at sucking the shavings away.

May or may not be compatible with your Bosch fixed/under-table router base

I bought this dust extraction hood kit on sale directly from Amazon after reading another review which stated the kit had been updated to be compatible with the current Bosch fixed/under-table base. I primarily bought the kit for use with the fixed base that I have mounted in my router table. Unfortunately, the kit I received seems to be outdated stock (the packaging looked really old and had an orange $17.09 price sticker on it), so the rear-mounted hood doesn't fit the current (as of 2011-2013) fixed router base shipping with Bosch routers. The under-table adjustment shaft is in the way and prevents you from mounting the rear hood. I think stores with old stock are shipping it to Amazon and the old stock is being mixed with new stock in Amazon's warehouse.

According to my Bosch router's user manual, the updated version of this kit has the hose hook-up offset an inch or so right of center, but the one I received had the hose hook-up perfectly centered.

The bottom-mounted hood (for edge routing) probably would have worked fine, but I didn't bother trying it since I mainly needed the other hood. Fortunately, Amazon is letting me return the kit and has already refunded my money.

Does not work with RA 1181 Router table

I bought this specifically to improve the chip collection under the router table. Unfortunately, the dust hood does not fit

underneath the table, it cannot be clipped on.

Perfect fit for my Bosch router. Seems well made. I wish the outlet nozzle were a larger diameter, as it and the provided hose adapter restricts air flow.

Used the flush extraction hood to hook up a hose to my router while its attached to my router table. I had some issue with finding the correct hose adpater with a 90 degree to attached to my vacuum system

Arrived properly packaged and fit my bosch router as advertised. Using router with attachment took a few tries to get used to the space taken up by the hood and wet-vac hose, but 80% decrease in flying saw dust is worth the small maneuverability hassles. Would give the hood five stars if it caught closer to 100% of all saw dust.
