Wet tile saw

[Jon84]

Hi all. I'm new to the forum and after a bit of advice on a new wet saw. I've read all the recent threads on here but not really found enough to go on.
I'm a bathroom fitter so I'm tiling pretty much every week, I've been using a vitrex 750 wet saw for a while and have got through a few of them. Always having problems with the guide getting bent at the back so not able to push tiles through.
The most recent one I had seemed to drift off by a few mm too.
I've decided I need to invest in something a lot better so after some advice. I know the dewalt 24000 seems very impressive, although very expensive. Been looking at the rubi nd200 also which is half the price.
I do a lot of tiling albeit mainly small bathrooms so need something that's going to last!
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

The nd200 has been a god send, replaced with a better blade though, changed the on/off switch last year other than that been all good and would recommend.

I removed the screws from the guard holder on my Vitrex, and make sure the holes are clean, so it can slide about a bit and never had any problems with it.
I think if I was busier though I'd want something better.....folks seem to only have good things to saw about the DEWALT.
If you find a Buy One Get one Free, give us the free one please??!

I can't imagine being without my Dewalt!

The Dewalt looks amazing, it's so much money but if I'm using it every week then I'm thinking it would pay for itself.
Only thing I was concerned about is angled cuts on 600mm tiles?
Or anything bigger than that for that matter. For that price I would want it to be able to cut tiles bigger than that!
Is it the DNA blade you changed to on your nd200 @whitebeam?
Thanks for replies

Norton do some good cutters as well...

Yes it was, I've cut 800x600 limestone on my ND.

I don't know if it's of any use but I made this thread earlier linking to loads of DNA threads.
