Hello guy's and girls,
Iv'e been pondering over getting a new manual tile cutter for a while, so i thought why not ask the experts.
I started up on my own a little over a year ago now and the first cutter i bought was a big clinker going off the recommendations from the lads at topps, whilst i was resonably happy with the big clinker i have come to find a few flaws and it is not performing the same as it was a year ago, i know it's reasonably priced but i dont want to buy one every year, i want one to last a good while, also i used the big clinker for everything but now i have purchased a rubi hobby 40 for splashbacks and smaller thinner ceramics which is fantastic and easier to manage. but of course i'm looking to invest in a larger cutter for larger tiles porcelain ect, this is where the problem is right the rubi range is quite popular and maybe overcrowded, just how many tile cutters do they want to bang out of the factory, i could do with an honest opinion on what you think is the best value for money tile cutters out there, i was set on the ts 60 plus then i looked at it in topps and it seemed very flimsy next to the big clinker and i'm not keen on the static breaking point, so then i had a play with the MASSIVE TX700N and i just dont know if something that big is neccessary especially at over 300 sheets, so then i thought the tr600 looks good but they're not recommended for porcelain.....then i saw the speed 60 on offer at CTD for just 125 quid and they said that it copes well with porcelain but i'm wary of what these guys say... nothing against them but they want a sale right? however the speed series looks good and reasonably priced but again it is marked as a semi/ametuer cutter, does anyone own one and if so what do they think because it's hard to find reviews on it, i know this is long winded so thanks for your attention and thanks in advance for your invaluable knowledge on this forever debatable issue.
