Last year, on the recommendation of @GSPBASSES I bought a Trend T10EK which is very good and much more powerful but may be more than you need.
It’s also a good idea to get some decent cutter bits too.
Have to agree with this, I used a £20 B and Q router for years, cheap bits to do the dirty work but if a decent finish was needed then I used bits from https://www.wealdentool.com
I have the Makita and all its accessories , they're great - but the Katsu copy isn't bad for light duties.
I had the Katsu recommended to me by a professional (as in, it's how he makes his living!) cabinet maker. Most of his kit is Festool. Apart from a few Katsu branded tools.

A wider/longer sub-base makes them much less 'tippy' to use. I'd have another Katsu no problem but not as a plunge router.
Elu's - love them, I ended up with a pair of MOF177s and a 97E which is brilliant, 1/4" plunge router. And I've got a MOF11 in the pin router, and want another or a Dewalt 627, on the hunt for those.
