What some of your help guys ,want to buy a decent tile cutter to finish off my house, I now see the get what you paid for rule definitely is true, bought a contractors tile cutter from screw fix ,what a load of crap, it doesn't cut near the Zero measure scale, it's out of square by a little,it snaps more tiles across the middle than it does anywhere near the score line, should of known being a pro chippy that you get what you pay for when it comes to quality and tools. So advice needed please ,need to finish off my floor to lobby and kitchen as well as complete kitchen walls so need a 50 series to manage the floor on the 45. Been looking at the Rubi standard range (as well as others),looking to buy quality so that it's got a resale value when I've finished with it. Can someone explain the advantages /disadvantages between the types please , looking at the Rubi pocket , star and star plus ,star plus looks a stronger version of the star but don't know which would be better ,also Cutman do a range of pocket cutters that look exactly the same as the rubi pocket which the trader claims are a sister company to Rubi , if you go to the cutman website and look at the spare 6 mm cutter wheels ,they actually have rubi on them . So pro's and cons to each type if you can please

1. Rubi pocket 50
2 Cutman Hobby 50 (Pocket clone or rebadged name?)
3. Rubi Star 50
4.Rubi Star 50 N
5.Rubi Star 50 n Plus

What are you getting extra for the N and N Plus models

Any advice greatly appreciated

The bathroom walls (very few left to finish) are 150 x 150 ceramic with 2 high mosaic border, the floor tiles are 330 x 330 x 7.8 mm ceramic at 45 degrees and the kitchen are still to be chosen, probably 4" square set to 45 degrees ,but likely to be ceramics what ever they are .
