rubi nd 200

[Andy Allen]

i was thinking of buying a rubi nd 200 wet cutter

anyone tell me what there like, or suggest anything better for same price (£450)

hi andy,

are you buying second hand? Think its same as mine which i paid 400 for second hand hardly used. it is good machine, pretty heavy though but has fold up legs and wheels. plenty of power to cut porcelain, slate and trav. not tried anything like granite with it.
The only prob i have noticed is it does not cut quite straight! another tiler i know also has same problem! its about 3mm out.
think i have sussed out how to alter it but cant get the allen keys undone. so check that out before you buy mate.

Had mine for a number of years and had no problems, I tend to use a wickes 9" paint tray for the water, it leaves a bit of the tray sticking out the side so easier to fill with water when needed.

the rubi nd 200 is a good cutter but not worth the £450 price tag if i was you i would save an extra £200 quid and get the dewalt 24000 it is the best cutter on the market you wont have trouble with wandering blades with it. its ways a little more weight and takes a litle more time to set up but worth every minute eats natural stone and porcelain for breakfast you wont be dissapointed i love mine and i bought a bricollina for small jobs another great little cutter for £120 quid !
