Editorial Review:

Precise, lightweight, and easy-to-use, the Porter-Cable 42700 Precision Router Edge Guide features a generously sized fence for optimum handling while routing. Easily adjustable, and offering a scale in both metric and fractional increments, it also boasts dual sliding, and mounts that slide exactly where needed and then lock in place.

I waited too long to buy mine:

I purchased the 42700 Edge Guide for use with my PC 7535 Speedmatic. The precision I get from this tool is worth every penny.
For dados, rabbits, and flutes it works great and has expanded my routers roll in my shop. The edgeguide like all of my Porter-Cable tools has held up well to many hours of work.

PC Edge Guide:

Am really pleased with edge guide. Have already used it to rout flutes in 40 pieces. Guide was simple to use. Very satisfied with product.

Great guide - but NOT FOR the 890 Series PC router:

Somewhere on the Amazon website I read that this guide would fit the 890... It will once I drill and tap a couple of new holes... Caveat Emptor!

Perfect:

I purchased this to use with a Porter-Cable 7539 Router, it fits perfectly, and should fit any of the listed routers perfectly as well. I had used a friend's craftsman router with the stock edge guide for it, it worked ok, but after using this one there's no comparison. This edge guide is incredibly light weight and considering how long is it is doesn't unbalance the router at all. (Admittedly I'm using a really heavy router). It's also very accurate and is easily adjustable. Even the micro adjuster works... more info
