looking to get a 1/2 shank router

I would like to build a router table into one of the wings of my table saw. the two routers I think it is between is the bosch 2.5 hp and the triton 3.5 hp. The triton I wouldn't need a lift. The bosch I would. the bosch is currently on sale for 190 but would need to add at least a $200 lift. The triton is $250 again no lift needed. Anyone have the triton and give me some feedback on it?

I've got the Bosch 1617EVS 2.25 hp fixed base router as well as the Festool OF1400 for my 1/2" shanks. I keep my Bosch fixed in a Bosch RA1181 router table and have had great success with it whereas I use my OF1400 on the rail and freehand. Bosch makes a great router. I used to have a 1-3/4hp Milwaukee. I ended up selling it for the want of more power but. Ilwaukee makes a great one too. PC is always a great choice to boot.
