I need a router recommendation

Xedos,
I do already have a holed  guide rail and a domino so that’s kinda what has been steering me in this direction. I’m not in this as a full timer right now. I was hoping this would help me along if I have to do a few cabinets or book shelves here and there. Sort of a starting point. I’m in a really tight work space (spare bedroom) at the moment which is one of the reasons I started down this whole Festool path. A lot of the alternative systems offered up here look pretty good but I think I’m gonna stick with the green stuff for now and see where things end up. I hope to start construction on a bigger space in the next year or so. If that ever gets done it will open up more options for tools and how to approach certain tasks
 
I also have LR32 but I adopted small Makita (battery) router by adding a plexiglass plate between LR32 plate and the router. Works very well and I actually prefer Makita as I dont have to deal with the power cord. As per dust collection... it works very well, but you obviously need a hose connected, for 5mm holes I sometimes go completely cordless.
 
Well my drilling kit and the new 1010 router got delivered in good condition the other day. I really wish I had something that needs a bunch of holes drilled. I did try it out on a small scrap. Seems pretty decent to me. I must say that the plunge on the 1010 is super super smooth. Might not be a dedicated router for long
