    Default What to buy

    Have a few biggish floors coming up and I am looking at buying a larger wet saw - thats portable for one person.
    I have read a lot about the Dewalt 24000 and have seen one in action, I'm also looking at the Tyrolit Hydrostress TTE 250, but I know nothing at all about this cutter.
    Any feedback on this would be really appreciated, big layout for me so would really like to make the right choice. Hopefully it will pay for itself over time.

    Have you got the jobs yet or are they 'possibles'.
    Tradetiler keeps them in stock so wait until they are confirmed before the outlay.
    Me - I'd go for the DeWalt 24000!
    Good Luck!

    One def in the bag. Pretty much set on the Dewalt, the Tyrolit is a bit lighter and a slightly longer cutting length.
    Will hang on until secure the other job.

    I have a rubi dw250n..used it for 3 yrs..then i have recently got the dewalt dw24000...

    well what a cutter... the dewalt is...Rubi saw is good but the dewalt i like more because i do quite a bit bespoke cutting and it is more for that type of work than my rubi rail cutter..

    ive got the dewalt d24000 and imo, its "pound for pound" the best wet saw on the market!! you also get a 30 day dewalt return policy, so if for whatever reason you dont like it you can get a full refund as long as you have a receipt from a reputable outlet ie tradetiler etc

    Dewalt DW 24000 - I WANT ONE, as he - didnt leave me one!

    Ive got the QEP bridge from Topps. Not bad for the oney, but it is way to big and cumbersome if you are on your own.

    Im going to save for te 24000

    Thanks to all for the feedback. Think my mind was made on the Dewalt, just wanted to hear any info on the Tyrolit.
    All the feedback on the dewalt seems to be 100%.

    You will love working with this tool. a real pleasure to use

    A little tip for you is to obtain a tap from a brewers shop to replace the one on the machine as it makes adjusting the water flow easier.
