Kerry, Like Doc, I got one of th' Home Despot cheapy ones, under $100. I hoped it would last for enough cuts to do our bedroom (480SF) with every tile needing cutting. I thought I'd need two or three of these cheapies to do the entire 1200 SF upstairs. I burned up the cheapy diamond blade and replaced it with a high end blade. I did the entire upstairs with the original $100 saw, plus a 10' by 30' tile floor for Wendy's new orchid room, plus I finished our entire master bathroom and shower room in travertine marble. Same saw.
Like Doc says: "Li'l beast worked GREAT! And I still use it.
One of the best $100 I ever spent.
