Default sigma tile cutters?

Hi, i'm looking at getting a new cutter for a big job I have starting on the 6th of August.......

currently I use a rubi ts50 plus for the dry cuts (superb bit of kit!) and a plasplugs contractor plus wet cut wheel (again, superb for the money...cuts everything!!)

There have been a couple of jobs that I have done lately which required a bigger cutter than the one I have so I thought I'd bite the bullet and get a bigger one

I was thinking of a rubi tx-700 but I keep finding mention of sigmas and montolit and another one (raymondo??) and these all look very similar.

my question is, do you 'push' to scribe the cut or 'pull'?

I can't make it out 100% from the pictures I have seen.

I know there wil be people who swear by them, but I don't want to shell out a load of dough for a cack cutter...........i'd rather pay the £300 for the tx and know it will work spot on (and its a 'push' scribe cutter) with the moveable breaker system on it

cheers,Pat
