I was worried because the only tile saw I’ve used in the past was a rented professional grade tile saw. This one was just as easy to use. I needed the 45 degree ability for several of my cuts to β€œmiter” small pieces to create edge pieces, and this worked perfect for it. I’ve already recommended to several friends. Super great value for the price, excellent quality, and really easy to setup and use. Review: Beat expectations! - As a professional contractor, I really didn't expect much from this saw, as I have tried many saws over the last 30 years to know you need a good motor, blade, and steady plate to cut porcelain and glass without chipping. By the literature, this unit has an undersized motor, non-rubberized plate, plastic ends and body, and no name blade. So, you have to expect that you get what you pay for. However, my goal through the years was to have something portable enough to carry down flights of stairs, big enough to cut 12x12 porcelain and glass tile, strong enough to last more than one job, and absolutely non-dripping! Well, This is the one to buy. There are two models, and this one with water lock is the better model, although twice the cost. So, read the other reviews and you'll see this all confirmed. What I include here is a workaround and suggestions for improvement. 1. The blade guard...Great working device with a rubber seal that keeps water to zero IF you are not cutting a tile. I fixed the screw area problem that attaches it to the table by recessing the screw heads. Next I used duct tape looped over the front air exhaust so water goes back down the table and not up in my face or over the table. It wouldn't be difficult or costly if Skill added these two design fixes in their next revision, especially for the price. 2. The blade...it's a basic blade, so don't bother using it. Get a decent one for your tile job. I used a widow. 3. The motor...it is a bit under amperage as I know it won't last as long as my 12 and 15 amp units, and won't cut as fast. However, I don't know that one that powerful could fit in such a small footprint, or be as light. I do know a 7 amp would be my expectation and would not add a considerable amount of weight, and would be considered a great value for the price point they had this one for ($135), 4. The plastic body is very strong and I had no problems even when stressing it. 5. The top...it is like a teflon coated top, but I don't know for sure. It held up well for the three backsplashes I have done since buying it last month. Time will tell if it starts to rust, but I oil it after every use, so it should be minimized. If Skil were to add a 1mm hard rubber/plastic film, it would be awesome as tiles would still slide,cthe table would be protected, and it wouldn't be tile against metal. 6. The extension arm--yes, it's plastic, but it is sturdy and does the job well! Don't try cutting 36" floor tile as it will bind the saw and give a poor cut--but hey, that's why I put it to the test! 7. The switch..I think it is too difficult to turn on and off each time you make a cut, because of the thick rubber cover it has, but it does the job it's suppoed to do in making it safe! I would either add a bigger switch to use with gloves, or add a more protruding toggle. 8. The unit was easy to clean, but a simple tool storage, aside from drying the unit out and putting it inside the well would be useful. There is room on the tool or the extendion for this to happen. 9. Add an extra brush for the blade. I have not seen where to purchase replacements yet! ## Features - Corrosive resistant stainless steel top supports tiles up to 12 x 12-inch - Adjustable rip fence with miter gauge for accurate straight and miter cuts - Blade cooling water reservoir to keep blade cool while minimizing dust and debris - Bevel cuts tile from 0 to 45 degrees.

We are currently struggling with the batch we just made and we need to find a good way to cut it. :)** A: As others have mentioned, you must use the Planters blade to safely cut peanut brittle. Since you are already going to spend the additional $30 for the proper blade, I suggest simply buying the Hormel tile and brittle saw that includes the blade. **Q: Would this be a good saw to cut rocks in half?** A: Depends on the size of the rock. The material is not an issue -- I use it to cut agates and quartz up to a couple inches in size. The important thing is to go slow and make sure to keep the cut wet. **Q: What is the biggest size of tile this saw can be used for to do diagonal cuts?** A: am sure you can cut even 24x24 in. tile. to cut straight get 1x1x 20--24 in, wood and clamp under the table as your guide to cut straight,hope this will help. skil power tools are great and cheaper than MK **Q: this saw comes w/a diamond blade. would it be good enough to cut little glass mosaic tiles or should I order a different diamond blade?** A: The blade will cut through the glass tiles just fine, however, I would suggest purchasing a thinner more durable blade. I purchased a Ridgid 7" blade from Home Depot. The Ridgid blade make cleaner cuts and wastes less material because it is a thinner blade.Also, Skil just came out with a new updated model of this saw. I would suggest purchasing that saw instead because it has some much needed improvements. Here is some information on the new saw: https://www.skiltools.com/Tools/Pages/ProductDetail.aspx?model=3550-01. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just as good as the rented pro saw *by T***A on December 1, 2025* Super impressed with this tile saw.

And I really struggled between 2 and 4 stars. My frame of reference is an $89 tile saw I purchased form Lowes 15 years ago. This saw has some great features and some really poor design features as well. I used this for a master bath remodel. It was used to cut tiles for 4 X 4 ft square shower and floor including 3 niches in the wall, and then the wall with a big window, and trim around a Jacuzzi tub. So there were a ton of tile cuts. Let's start with the good. 1. The Hydorlock Containment System - nearly brilliant. And this is the reason I bought it instead of using my older saw. Yes it does work well if you have the splash guard down and resting on the tile you are going to cut. I cut the tile right in the room, with plastic to drape off our closet and the door shut. Although you will get a bit of spray exiting the back occasionally. However there are 2 ares where it does not control spray. First, is if you do a beveled cut that requires to raise the right side of the table, will not block the spray near as much. Second if you are cutting any thicker material, it is not as effective in blocking the spray. I had to cut some solid surface pieces i used for the shower niches and curb. That eliminated most of the spray containment when cutting those 3/4 pieces. 2. Speaking of beveled cuts, the built in jig to do a 45 degree cut works very well. 3. Size - is nice and portable. 4. Noise - the motor is not load, but cutting tile can be. For 1/4 inch; ceramic wall tile it was not bad. But for the 3/8 inch; ceramic floor tile, I found that i had to wear nose reducing ear muffs. I suspect this is no different than other tile saws. 5. Cleaning the reservoir - fairly easy. It includes a handy spot for emptying towards the bottom. However, it would be nice for them ot offer a lug for the emptying spout. Now for the unfortunate parts. 1. The rip Fence - This barely gets one star. My old saw had a rip fence that was much more simple and plastic that worked far better and easier than this. This has to be one of the worst pieces of engineering to come out of Skil. Here is why: * It is extremely easy to bind as you are moving it. * It uses this crazy spring loaded design that has an L bracket that grips the front of the table top that still requires you to tighten down each time with a overly small knob. It is by far the most clumsy and difficult thing to use. They made the mechanism far too complicated for the purpose. Just give me a freaking thumb clamp like other tile saws and woodworking table saws use. If you buy this saw, or already own it, there is one thing I did after a couple of hours of frustration in using it. Get a file, or a dremel and grind down the top edge of the horizontal part of that L bracket enough to round it off some. That really made it easier. Come on Skil engineers. Use the product in real life before you shove it out the door. I am not an engineer and easily improved on your design. * It gives you a false sense of security. Because of the crazy spring mechanism, you may think it is tight, only to find out your tile shifts while cutting. But then if you push it or kind of manhandle the fence, you will find you can now tighten it more. Even after several sessions of use and making sure I avoided this, it still caught me and wasted a few cuts. My modification mentioned above did not help this design flaw. 2. Angled cuts. I primarily cut two sizes of tiles - 10 X 13, and 6 X 24. Even though the specs said it can cut 18 X18, do not expect the lousy angle guide to help you if the tile is over say a 6X6. Since the angle guide slides on top of the rip fence, the table top and fence are not nearly long enough to accommodate larger tiles for angle cuts. Plan on hand guiding those cuts. If you are a little OCD like me, that is not super easy. 3. Cleaning the splash guard - after about 2 sessions of using the saw, there was enough a build up of slurry in the guard to make it unusable to see through. And to clean it after each session would required tools to remove it. I am still trying to figure out how I will clean it now that I am done. I hope this helps those who are looking for a tile saw. ## Frequently Bought Together - SKIL 7-Inch Wet Tile Saw - 3540-02 - QEP 7" Continuous Rim Diamond Blade - For Wet Cutting of Ceramic Tile - QEP 7" Continuous Rim Premium Diamond Blade for Wet or Dry Cutting of Ceramic, Porcelain, and Marble Tile, Silver --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1097705-7-inch-wet-tile-saw-3540-02](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1097705-7-inch-wet-tile-saw-3540-02) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-31*
