The smooth machine [Posted on 2007-02-22] I have purchased and have used tile-cutters before but this one was exceptional,this machine cut 1/2" x 13" easily without breakages and the good thing about it it cost me drastically less than similar machines I personally vouch for this equipment and would recommend it to anyone any day. I hope there is lots more where this came from
Fast, Smooth Easy Tile Cuts [Posted on 2007-11-28] This tile cutter was much cheaper than Lowes or Home Depot and does a fantastic job. You can cut and snap the tile in one stroke. Just put heavy even pressure as you pull it towards you to score the tile. When you get to the end of the tile you just press down and the tile breaks cleanly. I have a wet saw too, but this cut cleaner and much, much faster.
Doesn't do the job [Posted on 2008-03-17] Cannot cut 16" tile. I tried to cut my 16" porcelain tile, it did a clean break 12" down and the break veers off. I tried it again w/ the same problem. Then I decided to try a 12", thinking that it was just mine that was defective, but it worked fine. I tried the 16" once more and had the same problem. I looked under where the tile sits and I found out the protuberance below tile only goes up to 12" and there's no support for it under the tile beyond that. From the other review it seems to cut 13", but my guess is that it's probably not a good idea to try and use this on any tiles larger than that. I gave it two stars because it actually does cut 12" tiles.
