you have to ask yourself why tile shops dont stock them, is it the shops fault or sigmas, im not calling sigma as iv never seen one but shurly if there as good as you say they are theyd be in there, all tilers want the best tools to make the job easier but if its not on show anywere its a big gamble to take, all the best everyone for2013.

Hence why Sigma now have a manager like Derek in the uk , they only normally sell from reputation but the more the uk cotton on to a superior brand then sales can only go up and be more available uk wide.(which they now are ) ..

Well it's not Sigma? some stores don't want to take on new products partly because of money and investing in stock and also demand from end users. Plus we have not been in the UK long so it's new to some people. That said it's getting more popular and already some big well known stores have been in touch looking at the new year to do something.

i look forward to seeing them in the shops, so we can try before we buy, id love a 900 cutter but the rubi one is the best part of 400 pound, hope sigma can beat there prices.

I have the 10M.
I have used the 10L on a job last year, very good it was too cutting slabs.
I currently have a Tyrolit which I use on smaller jobs which is no sigma but easily carried etc.

You get what you pay for with cutters I find, my 10M was well over 1k 7 years ago but it paid for itself in its first job !! Big job though.
The quality is still in it too.

Later on next year I'm definately going to hunt out a few of the more powerful saws to try and I do like the sound of the 10m. The Vitrex 900 that I have now is just not powerful enough, 3 - 4 hours sitting at the end of the machine and pushing tiles through I'd like to be able to speed things up a bit!
