I think you can give an extensive search in the internet and check out the options you get. I am sure you’ll get much better options of tile saw to go for.

There are a bunch of threads on this site alone about tile saws. It comes down to how much you want to spend. There is the "home owner" saws that cost around 100-400, the "entry level" saws that cost between 500-1000, and then there are the saws that will cut tile all day everyday that cost 1000 and up. I bought a ridgid tile saw just over 2 years ago to start doing some tiling around my house and family members to practice tiling. It has treated me pretty good so far. Some people have had some problems with them but they come with a 3 year warrenty. It costs around 500-600 I believe. In my opinion if you just do the occasional tile job this or the dewalt or mk are decent entry level saws. If you plan on doing tile everyday I would spend the money and get a nice saw, I believe I read on this forum that target is a "pro" saw. I have gotten my monies worth out of my saw but would like to upgrade and invest in a new saw sometime soon. Do a search and you will find plenty to read on this
