Anyone ever heard of King Canada?

I saw a router today I am interested in, great price but I never heard of them (may or may not be a good thing).

King is a decent name brand, they are big with stores like RONA (formerly Cash Way)

My uncle, who is in construction is horrible with tools. He will leave them out in the rain and in the snow. He had a King table saw that lasted him a couple years.

Obviusly they are not Dewalt quality, but depending on what you will be doing with it/how frequently you will be using it, they should do the trick.

My store sells King. The quality seems to depend on which exact tool it is. Just looking at it in store......it looks pretty decent. If you are a contractor or a tradesperson that will be using it all day, then I wouldn't bother. BUT, if you are using it occasionally, then it shouldn't be an issue. 2 year warranty is okay too.

Crap cordless drills, crap benchtop tablesaw, crap drill press...that's all I've used that was a King. Seem to have low amperage motors that don't perform well or last long.
