Rigid Tile Saw


Anyone here used or looked at or heard anything about the 10 inch Rigid Tile saw? I am in process of making a purchasing decision on a 10 inch tile saw and was not considering the Rigid until I saw it today, it looks like a quality saw.

Re: Rigid Tile Saw


thanx guys, appreciate it. My little MK gave me an electrifying experience today so I'm going to have to buy a new saw faster than I was planning. Although it sounds like a mixed bag I think I may just try the Rigid. When it craps out I'll go to a Target or Felker.

Re: Rigid Tile Saw


If I am, are you gonna start bombing me with more pricelists for importing stone from China?

Re: Rigid Tile Saw


I am a big fan of ALL Ridgid tools. Since they have been acquired by Home Depot it makes for easy and usually painless exchanges and returns.

I have an assortment of the 18 volt cordless and I swear by them. I have, in the past, destroyed a couple of DeWalt 18v. Not a single complaint has ever come from my Ridgids.

All in all, if you are not satisfied with the performance, HD will gladly refund your $.
