Worth going for a Rubi TS-40 cutter?

[webby]

Have only ever used Rubi TS cutters (apart from my diamond wet wheels) and never had a problem.If you are going to get a TS40 you might as well spend a bit more and get a TS60.There is no comparrison with DIY cutters.They are crap.

think some of the problem lies with sigmas are a bit harder to find in your local tile shops, places like topps all stock rubi cos they ara good product but if more places stocked sigma then we would all have a bigger scope to try differant cutters

sorry to butt in guys but i must admit i stand with gaz and oxtiler on the sigma side they are built to last

To be fair Rubis are built to last as well. We had a guy who reluctantly had to replace his trusted rubi cutter after 10 years of use. Rubi also now guarantee their cutters for 5 years as well.

I've seen Rubi's well in their teens and still in action, pretty much everything is replaceable.

ive got a ts-40 that ive had for over eight years I use it nearly everyday and theres still plenty of life in it. Rubi do the pocket cutters I believe the pocket 50 costs around £55 and has a moving breaker which is great on ceramics (would be useless on anything harder though) if its a diy cutter your after. The guy that taught me to tile used the pocket50 all the time (tight arse).
