Router table recommendations?

Guys looking for recommendations for a descent one. Willing to pay a little for quality. I was leaning towards Bosch but when actually reading reviews don?t seem to be that great. Thanks
 
I have a router table set up on my table saw. I replaced the left side wing with melamine and then inlet a JESSUM router table base. I keep a fixed router base attached to the Jessum and then attach the router motor when needed.

Saves having a dedicated router. I have a Hitachi M12VS.

I have a similar setup. I'm not sure if D. wants an out-of-the-box solution or is considering building his own. My preference is for a shop solution like mine and yours. Having said that, even though I regularly use my router for bearing guide work and simple edge profiling, I find the shaper to be much more versatile and capable, and in the same ballpark in terms of space requirements and cost.

I didn?t realize the table saw set up was an option. Considering that now because real estate is valuable in my little area
 
The nice thing about a table saw setup is you use your existing table saw fence. i made a sub fence that attaches to my table saw fence.

Several companies are selling cast iron tops that can hold a router lift and be your table saw wing. I'd look into them while you are shopping.
