aldi tile cutter

[mike s]

Has anyone seen or got the wet tile cutter from aldi?
£24 (so it's not going to be fantastic)
would it make a good stop gap for a year?
or should i leave it alone?

i have one similar to the one you talking about, its noisy but it works well, i even have a big cutter on a stand bought me at xmas, nice tool!:yes:

I've not seen it to be honest, but how long it lasts would be dependent on what tiles your cutting and how often. You could probably extend it's life with a decent blade, but I think you'd be limited in it's application. Also have a look at the water container, is it easy to get the water in, some cheap ones need you to be able to bend the laws of physics to get the water; other just splash the stuff about.

i got one on sunday its still in the box i not tried it out yet, u can also purchase 2 blades for a further 6 quid, im hoping it does what it says on the box .

Dont you think that even if only lasts a year its worth the cheap price.

If it cuts tiles then its ok. You may find it noisy though and splashing water everywhere isnt nice. The other thing is how stable is it when you are cutting.
Let us have a review Julie.

Just bumping some of the tiling tools related threads. This thread might not be current discussion, if it isn't, just ignore this, and it'll soon drop off the list. Don't worry if you bring it back into current discussion yourself though, the content within it could be useful for somebody. So feel free to add to it if you have something valuable to add.
