Skil 3540-02 4.2-Amp 7-Inch Wet Tile Saw Conclusion

The reviews say that this is a great product; it’s small and cheap- not intended for professional work- but it is accurate and durable.

Key benefits apart from the price are it is easy to set up  and robust ennough for DIY use. The blade cuts well but is more suited to  more thicker tiles  and is easily changed .Minor niggles include the small size of the water resevoir and the fiddliness of the fence adjustment. But for this price, this saw is worth getting. Would suit best for the  DIYer who needs to use a tile saw for several days, but who cannot afford to rent or buy a more fully featured saw.
