Rexon Tile Saw - Anyone used it?

[tgarnham]

Hello - I'm thinking of getting a Rexon CT1150 Al tile saw - hand held unit for general use. Has anyone got one, is it a good tool? Any other tile saw suggestions?

Ive got one of the rexon saws mate and i think its one of the best cutters ive bought!
I had a plasplugs table saw which was 750w but the rexon is 1200w !!!
I put a proper tile blade on it as the blade supplied isnt up to much. I bought the 'Norton ultimate tile cutting blade' from screwfix and it flies through rock hard porcelain like you wouldnt believe. mainly due to the power of the cutter.
The blade was a squeeze to fit on past the guard but it will go with a bit of force.
I would definately get one if I were you, its a nice tool, comes with a carry case, easy to use, powerful as hell and only £99. need I say more?
Dont forget glasses or goggles though!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have one, not that impressed, i prefer using 4 1/2 inch angle grinder with a diamond blade from trade tiler, wouldn't use anything else.

I have one that I purchased from screwfix...works well for me..if you have a screwfix counter near you..purchase one if you don't like it take it back for a refund..just tell them that there is something wrong with it.

Thanks for the feedback guys - think I'll give one a go!!

Thanks Mate - think I'll go ahead with one of these, do you use it as a replacement for a table saw, or do you use both?

Since I bought mine I havent used either of my table saws at all. I cant fault that cutter one bit.
