goan.... Rubi is the original and the best, the rest are imitators, they won't do you a wrongun... i'm a businessman first, and a tiler second, I don't mind admitting, but the branded products won't let you down, as their name oozes confidence for a reason, its tried and tested stuff, you will never doubt yourself as 1000's of others have used their product.. and we're not talking about a consumable that you buy every day, so the extra ££ v's the time.. no contest

I used to own a tx 1200 when they first came out and couldnt cut a 600 x 600 porcelain tile on the diagonal as the breaking bars flexed it was a very poor machine and very expensive , I sold it to another tiler and bought a sigma 3 em 3 years ago . I have been really pleased with the sigma https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkrwzmRaHX8

I bought it a few years ago to do a job that our Rubis wouldn't touch.
It's a Tomecanic SuperCoup 75.
I bought it new from fleabay.
It's a fantastic cutter but it's just too powerful for doing glazed ceramics etc as it just bursts the glaze from the tile.
For porcs it's great, don't even need to use the breaker as it will split just scribing with the wheel.
