Looks like the reviews are not the best. Multiple reviews talk about the poor customer service, lifetime warranty, and I saw two that talked about the pump giving out. I'm in the market for a tile saw and I'll hold off for something better to come along.

I'm a diyer and completed bathroom renovation with this saw and loved it. It helped up fine for me. I've been tracking tile saw prices for a couple years and seems like the 7"+ saws never go on sale. Seems like the type of thing people buy when they need so they never really go on sale.
Just finished a paver project with this and it was a trooper! The pump held up just fine. I was cutting 2in 3/8 thick concrete pavers. I would imagine tiles would be easier to cut by far. Water output will slow down due to the muddy water from paver dust so make sure to clean pump and replace water when needed. Will definitely buy again.

I have a big delta tile saw now but used the piss out of one of these since way back when they were like 129 bucks. Still have it, still runs fine, replaced one of the sprayers over the blade last year. done floors , several showers, baths, laundries, kitchen, hundred of feed of landscape wall cap. Still runs.
Had this saw for ages heck i dunno at least 10-15 years.
Tiling is big topic but i'll hit high notes on this saw
water pump and water delivery good but forget the recirculting crap, put your pump in a fresh bucket of water with hose lightly filling, pumps are cheap but this will make them last a long time. Recirculating dirty crap is for newbies of if you MUST setup inside. But beware spray control on this thing is non existent, it's NOT an indoor saw.
better yet...ditch the tub and stand, set the frame up on saw horses with clamp if you don't need to worry about debris. pump in a bucket like i said. cleanup is a snap.
wash and brush and lube everything on the saw especially the frame it's steel, wd40 everything. tile debris is bit caustic to aluminum wash and wd everything.
tray slide has bit of wiggle, fine for end cuts under base , for shower where you may smooth over the edge and long rips, start with a push of a tray to hard right. then follow a *line* not the saw, on a big tile you'll have 1/8 drift over a long area (i forget but whatever the max rip is for that saw) so gotta follow line on big rips which pretty much most of these sliders have some play. Large format 4 footers,etc forget it, you'll have to make a base so the tile sits above the tray lip, and follow line as well...pay attention to max rip capacity you can exceed it with filler on top of table so tile sits above lip but it's tight.
ANyways got my moneys worth times 100 on it and still have it for small stuff.

No reason to put your pump in a clean pal of water. All you're doing is making more work for yourself having to get more buckets of water and empty the tile cutters tub/tray more often. Proper water pumps,.. made for tile saws,.. have very effective filters, I still have OEM pumps from over a decade ago that still work as they should after hundreds of tile jobs. I can count on one hand the number times the nozzle on one of my wet saws got clogged over 30 years of installing tile, and every time is was because I was too lazy to drain and clean out the tub in the middle of a big job.

these are cheap little pumps and the recessed area on this tray will quickly get gummed up and cut waterflow to blade. ANyways like i said easiest is just to ditch the tub and stand let it all drop on a tarp, dry out then dump in a can.
That's some real youtubish-hack-DYI-thing approach, there son! lol. Have at it!
the tub is 2-3 inches deep it's not big.
you have to flush your tray more often as the grooves for debris are not 1 inch deep so you'll overflow it often anyways unless you want to fart around with it all day, or it will be empty from all the overspray and you'll be farting with a hose all day. The pump is separated in a channel area with maybe 1/2 -3/4 lip, it will be mucked full. after 1/2 inch of tile muck is buried your pump what you gonna do? your gonna take time to open the spigot let it drain remove the saw dump hose the debris and repeat, and water and mess will still be everywhere. Stand is steel it will last but will rust. You'll have a tarp down and water and debris will be everywhere anyways this saw will spray 5 feet off the back of blade, it's not made for splash containment.
Not a hack it's basic experience...no cleanup during job, no mucked pump, cleanup in 5 minutes (brush water, wd40) vs 30 at end. store frame only.
I've used this saw for countless hours with a multitude of materials. Never had a pump issue and never took any precautions to extend the lifespan of the pump. The water control is just fine. The only thing that creates a mess indoors is that the table slides beyond the tray and water drips off the end. This saw I would say is in my top 10 for best tool decisions. It just never quits. Doubt it would last for a career tile installer, but for a once every 6 months project kinda guy its perfect.
Looks like the reviews are not the best. Multiple reviews talk about the poor customer service, lifetime warranty, and I saw two that talked about the pump giving out. I'm in the market for a tile saw and I'll hold off for something better to come along.
Tile guy here.
It's a great saw for that price. If you want the best you need +/-$1400 for the DeWalt d36000 or +/-$900 for the d24000, so unless you are to become a professional tile setter, you don't need any of the dewalt saws.
I'm thinking of buying one of these for the 8" and smaller tiles tile jobs.
