Tools and Hardware Reviews of MK Diamond 158252 MK-145 1/2-Horsepower 4-1/2-Inch Wet Tile Saw
Customer Review: Amazing for the price!
Summary: 5 Stars
I used this saw to cut ceramic tile and slate. It did so with little effort and minimal to no chipping. The table is small, so making cuts over 6 inches doesn't allow you to use the fence, but what do you expect! I just turned the tile over and set the fence to the amount I wanted to take off. I was impressed and would recommend this saw to any DIY'er. You can't beat it for the price; a quality circular saw cost more that this. BTW..every wet saw makes a mess, so use it where it does not matter, like outside.Customer Review: Exactly what I needed
Summary: 3 Stars
The saw arrived on time and was assembled as per the directions with no problems. In use, the saw worked just fine, I used it for cutting 2" tiles for the kitchen backsplash and it cut all tiles with no problem. The fence bows up a little when it is tightened down, but that is not a problem. This is not an industrial saw and it should not be expected to perform like one. It did not bogged down in use, just use a slow steady feed rate. I would buy this saw again and recommend it for the home DIYer.Customer Review: Pleasant Surprise

Great little saw! We had decided to floor our new conservatory with 12" ceramic tiles on the diagonal, so lots of cutting was involved. Had no problems cutting straight lines without the aid of the fence (which couldn't be used because of the size of the tiles). It was plenty fast enough for me.
I was afraid of what I'd get, given the tin-can flimsy plastic quality of the $100 tile saws I saw at the big box store, but this saw is plenty sturdy, not cheap feeling at all.
Customer Review: Perfect for the DIY
Summary: 5 Stars
I found the plastic fence was a bit difficult to move and adjust due to the tile debris. Other than that it was awesome. I even cut and beveled my own corner shelves out of 12 inch tiles. You can do curved cuts, 45's and bevel edges with some practice. I was also able to cut 18 inch floor tiles with it. I pretty much wore out the blade on my bathroom project. It was certainly cheaper than renting a big wet saw and I can easily store it until I find another tile project in the future.Customer Review: small but works
Summary: 3 Stars
I got the saw because I was doing 18x18 inch tile and needed a table saw to cut something that big. This little fella did the job fine and is still working, however it is small, plastic, and pretty weak and I doubt it will last for several more jobs. I won't use this saw unless I am making large cuts that my regular saw can't do, so for that kind of job and the infrequency of it's use... it fits the bill for me. plus at the price I got it for it was cheaper than renting one!
