With a smooth and accurate scoring system and a sturdy steel frame, they excel in handling large format ceramic tiles. Available in four models, they accommodate tiles up to 61" straight or 43"x43" diagonally. Their cutting capacity extends to pieces up to 53/64” thick, adjustable for different materials. Features like a swivel square, removable ends, and a 12" lateral stop ensure precise cuts, while mobility is facilitated by folding tables, wheels, and handles. Compatible with RUBI PLUS scoring wheels, they come with 5/16” and 3/4" diameter wheels. However, for materials over 9/16” thick, sample cuts are recommended due to potential difficulties stemming from their properties.

My wife fell in love with a large format tile for our kitchen backsplash, and I just couldn't talk her into anything else. Initially, I received a quote of $3,400 to install the backsplash (labor only). I felt that was too much, and I could purchase the right tools and do it myself for much less. I was right, but there were some challenges. I needed a way to cut 26" x 59" porcelain tile into 18.5" pieces for my backsplash. After reading reviews online and watching many YT videos, I settled on the Rubi TZ-1550. I was extremely disappointed that the tile cutter arrived broken and unusable. I requested a return through Amazon, but Amazon stated that the seller would not cover the return shipping. I reached out to the seller directly and pleaded my case. After offering to have the cutter repaired by a local service center, I was able to get them to send me a prepaid shipping label for the return. They issued me a full refund shortly after they received the returned cutter. Although the seller was friendly and eventually accommodating, ultimately, I purchased the tile cutter from a local tile supply house although a paid a little bit more. I was able to tackle my backsplash project with ease (large format porcelain). As I have two bathrooms to remodel next (one with 30" x 60" tile), I feel the TX-1550 was a good investment. If you are not familiar with cutting tile, I highly recommend watching some YT videos on how to use the cutter & follow the directions closely. I was able to get some free scrap large format tile from where I bought our tile to practice some cuts first. I also practiced cutting out holes for outlets with an angle grinder. I also highly recommend Rubi's 60 grit diamond sanding block to clean up any roughness. Happy wife, happy life.

FOR 1,500$ you would expect it to cut in a straight line but it doesn’t. Tried to contact them for a refund and never got a reply.

if you are a professional or looking to work with tiles this will be such a good investment although it’s most useful for bigger tiles because it’s very big so it takes up space

I had purchased this for my tile guy who is in the tile business for 20 years. Said to get a Ruby as its the best tool out there. I bought it and we wasted 2 large 2'x4' pieces because it didn't break correctly. We switched to hand cutting with a Makita. Tool flexes too much when trying to break a tile.

Worst ever! I work hard for my money installing tile. I get my package and I am missing pieces. Everything is open and some of my hardware was found in a zip lock bag. The scoring wheel is not with it. Just the wrapping. Looks completley used. 2 plastics pieces are broke. I am so upset!!!! I'm on a massive Job and I ordered this too help my team. My company. Now I have to pay to send this heavy thing back. Just super upset!!! And hopefully I can get some of my money back.
