Customer Rating:      Summary: Nice little tile saw Comment: For a first time user, I think this saw is great for the price and for the capacity. It is easy to put together. The fence was reasonable parallel to the fence right out of the box. I had to build an additional fence to cut 16x16 tile. So, I think this saw is good for smaller tile job.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great (but slow) for the money Comment: Everyone that has previously reviewed this saw has covered the bases (both good and bad).
Cleaning: When I was cutting 12x12x1/2 slate, I had to refill the reservior and clean the workspace every 2 or 3 cuts. I also had to clean the entire thing every 5-8 cuts. And yes, use it outside...but who would really want to use a wet saw in a nice indoor application? :)
Motor: I only bound it up 2 or 3 times over 40 cuts, but I know as a first-timer I was definately not trying to rush the job. Other than that, it cut clean and true.
Price: I borrowed this saw from a friend to do my slate job, but I think it is perfect for a DIYer, so I'm buying one for myself. For a small job, or a take-your-time DIY person, this is a great saw. I'd hate to rent a bigger saw, knowing I was paying by the hour I would probably screw up more cuts than I already did on my own!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A DIY Dream!!! Comment: I couldn't be happier with this little saw - best bang for the buck by far. It cuts quite nicely and is not too messy (for a tile saw of course). I love the small size and the light weight - it really stores nicely out of the way between projects. It might not be a "pro" level saw but everyone who has seen my results with it would swear that the job was professionally done. Just use it like you should, take your time, and it will not dissapoint. If you are doing a remodeling project or 2 or 3, then don't hesitate to buy this saw.
Customer Rating:      Summary: good little saw Comment: We're in the middle of a complete bathroom remodel right now and bought this saw for the job. It did a great job cutting 2" hex marble floor tiles. We're now using it on 3x6" wall field tile and it is making nice clean straight cuts. The fence adjustment tends to get clogged with tile dust and fragments pretty quickly, which makes adjustment difficult, but a quick hose-down of the saw fixes this. This is the case for most saws of this type/price range, of which I've used several. This saw is as good or better than all the others in the $75-$125 price range.
Customer Rating:      Summary: saw Comment: this saw is worth $72, but it's only for occasional use. I cut some granite tile with this saw and it had trouble cutting it, even with me feeding it very slowly. when I cut porcelein tile, it did much better but you still have to push the tile thru slowly. The rip fence is not well designed, but the saw cleans up easily, and for the price it seems like a good value.
