## Overview

## Description

The Bosch GKF125CE Colt variable-speed palm-grip router with 1.25 horsepower (max) lets you feel the power in your hand. The GKF125CE has an ergonomic palm-grip design with soft-grip to make it very comfortable to hold, making it typically more convenient to use than larger routers. But it also has ample power, with a 1.25 HP (max) rating. It's far more than a laminate trimmer, as it is the ideal tool for rounding-over deck planks and railings, hinge mortising, decorative edge forming, slot cutting, window cutouts, decorative inlays, laminate trimming and more. The motor features soft-start circuitry, a variable-speed dial and Constant Response circuitry to maintain speed under load. Its PR101 fixed base features macro- and micro-fine depth adjustment and a centerable round subbase for easy guidance. The GKF125CEK Colt Palm Router Kit includes straight-edge guide is included that can guide the bit up to 3-5/8 In. in from the edge of workpiece, plus a carrying case.

Review: Bosch Quality does it again ! - Bosch quality meets a palm router. Like all my other Bosch tools this one exceeds my expectations. This replaced my cordless Ridgid palm router which would not hold the bit height tight. I went to a corded model because I use it in a shop and the battery ones make the tool top heavy and awkward to use 1 handed. This router runs smooth and is easy to use, the cord has a ball joint to keep it flexible and out of the way. Built with more metal parts like my 2 -1/4 hp Portercable and 3 hp Triton. It weighs more than my cordless, but its actually a plus because the weight is on the bottom of the router not at the top battery, so It stays in place on the work piece much better. The height adjustment is precise and actually holds the bit height fixed all the time, and bit change is the easiest of all my routers. Its easy to grip and use 1 handed and the base has good protection for the hands including a somewhat shielded finger grip on the base for a guide hand. The collet is tight at first but once you use it a few times it loosens up for changing bits. A nice touch from Bosch is that they have the the word Bosch on the collet wrench. That's really helpful when you have a drawer full of router wrenches that look the same. No masking tape and sharpie for this wrench.
Review: Complete and Honest Review - I'm, personally, scared to death of hand held routers. Partly because of the potential injuries, but mostly the fear of screwing something up on my workpiece. This is what i call the "Goldilocks" router. Bigger than the Bosch palm sander, smaller than the Bosch plunge router. It's just right for someone like me with more power and easier to maintain accuracy for the end user. It feels good in my hand. I still screw up, but I'm getting better through practice (who'd have thought...lol). It's easy to change bits and get accurate depth of cuts. It's corded, but I like that I don't have to keep changing batteries. Probably gets better power that way. Case is nice. Place to keep everything that came with it nice and secure, keeps dust off the tool. I think, after using it a little bit, the only thing I don't particularly care for is the guide rail. It's rather flimsy and difficult to keep it tightened due to the vibrations of the actual router. Bosch could definitely improve this, I'm sure. Bottom line, I've been slowly upgrading my hand held power tools one by one with Bosch because (1) they are high quality, well-made products, (2) the 18v brushless profactor platform is fantastic, and (3) the corded tools are also the best corded hand tools I've ever used. This corded router is the best one I've personally used. If you buy it, you'll be glad you did. Quit wasting time and money on Festool and come to the blue side. As a side note, I bought a Festool sander because it's supposed to be the "best of the best." I used it twice, put it back in the systainer and went back to my $60 Bosch because it just has more power. Recommend? Definitely! And check out their other tools you might need/want. You can not go wrong. I don't think I've ever seen a head-to-head between Bosch and Festool for any tool except their miter saw and I wonder why. The 10" Profactor miter saw and track saw are currently on my wish list. Saving up for them because I know their worth saving for.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good small handheld router
*by B***4 on December 17, 2025*

Nice router, plenty of power and easy to adjust the depth of cut. Good for handheld use. I bought it to rout out a slot in my electric guitar, but I have used it for some woodworking as well. I used to be a carpenter so I can attest to the build quality of Bosch tools and this appears to be of the quality I expected from Bosch.
