    There is a big jump in price from Plasplugs IMO. The best logical step would be Rubi ND200

    I've got a plasplugs master tiler and a rubi nd180, tbh neither have a problem cutting porc unless you let the blade start to run dry, i prefer the plasplugs, i like the internal water reservoir. Both have rubi cpc2 blades at the moment.

    I have one of these......the ultimate flad bed saw.....1.2 hp motor and 200mm blade..with tilting bed for mitres....the gaurd just pulls out for plunge cuts......

    this machine is around the £500 mark but well worth it...and it is fully stainless steel so no rusting..

    I've a rubi dw200 lps(110v)and a dw200lp(240v), they're good cutters but limited to tiles upto 750mm, could really do with a flat bed,tilting one tho' just to push big tiles through
