I'm ready to buy a router for mounting in my first router table. I've pretty much decided on the 3.5HP Milwaukee 5625-20

BUT...

I've been reading reviews from users--mostly spanning 2003 to 2006--warning that the through-the-table height adjustment mechanism fails due to its use of certain plastic components.

Q1) Has Milwaukee addressed/corrected the lift-mechanism failure issue recently? I can't afford a separate, third-party lift at this time.

Q2) Is the Milwaukee 5625-20 considered a "standard fit" for third-party lifts? If/when the built-in lift mechanism does fail, I'd like to be able to find a third-party lift for it easily.

Thanks, Tom
