What Dry cutter should I go for, Please

[The_Master]

Hi, I would normally use a Rubi TS50 for cutting wall tiles, but I find myself doing more and more floor tiles. The last few jobs have been in the diamond pattern and find it difficult to break the tiles. I would like to invest in a Rubi cutter of similar make to do a larger format tile. I hired a Rubi TX Cutter recently and it made the job so so easy, but the size of the cutter is a monster. Does anyone in the forum know of anything smaller and practical. Thanking you, Jeff, West Yorkshire.

Used the Rubi, think there ok machines because i never had the money at the time to buy a sigma, ive used a Sigma 620 for about 14 years now and cant look back, fast and reliable, only thing is now that some companies are bringing out even larger format tiles, so thinking of investing in a bigger Sigma, Im not sure about the TX Rubi model but i had the TS40 Rubi and that required 2 Action to cut a tile ie Score the tile then snap, and with the Sigma its 1 action 1 Scribe then Push without taking your hand off the lever. Sigma all day Long.

Hi, Thankyou all very much for your responses to my posting. I have purchased a Rubi TX 700 N cutter now. A bit big for my small van, but what a cutter for large format tiles. Don't mind spending on something decent that will last. Have been interested in your response re other cutters, but it's something about Rubi cutters that I like, after having a TS50 over the past few years. I would like to upgrade to a TS Plus, as the the breaking power is superb, after cutting tiles all day long. Thanking you all, Jeff
