If you’re a non-daily user, just go for a trend t5. They’re not amazing or anything but they’re good value and they router things well.
The lure of a palm router and it’s manageability is not wrong-headed, but you lose a bit of versatility.
Either way, don’t go for the Makita knock off. The one I’ve experience of has dogshit height adjustment, a base that is not perpendicular to the shaft, and makes a sound like they forgot to put bearings in it.
