Bosch Home and Garden Fliesenschneider PTC 640

Prior to purchasing this I did quite a bit of research as it seems there's some pretty iffy tile cutters out there. Sure I could have just gone ahead and bought a £35 cheapy from B&Q but I've been caught out too many times by that sort of false economy. Considered hiring one but then you're stuck with rushing the job if you're to avoid paying the same sort of money that would buy a pro cutter. This Bosch tile cutter seemed to get good reviews and I was not let down at all. It's a big bit of kit mind and overall it is robust and very well constructed. It oozes quality and invokes a sense of confidence when you're using it. Used it for cutting kitchen floor tiles and EVERY single cut was accurate and clean, and even very thin cuts close to the edge of a tile came off as sharp as you like. Watched a number useful How To videos on YouTube first (Tommy's Trade Secrets / Tommy's Yard is a good site) to get an idea of how much pressure to use. So although it was reasonably expensive, this cutter proved to be an excellent buy. I'll be using it to do the bathroom later in the year and I'm confident that if I feel I don't need to hang on to it, I'll get a decent price for it on eBay and recover much of the original outlay. Cracking bit of kit.

Bought this to replace old Mcullack tile cutter difference is night and day used it on 10mm thick tiles 300mm ×600mm easy to use gives a good clean cut just be careful when doing them long ways as experienced some chipping but that's down to me not being an experienced tiler only home DIY

I found this very robust and pretty good for large (600mm) tiles. My only comment on cutting is that, at the end nearest the handle, I’d occasionally get a cut that would deviate slightly in the last 20-30mm on a 600mm cut despite there being a clear score line. Not the end of the world. The other slightly counter-intuitive bit of design is that the scale on the stop for small cuts goes in the opposite direction from the scale for large cuts. Only made the mistake once but worth being aware of so, rather than a 235mm cut, you don’t get a 225mm cut.

Excellent product can cut tiles extremely well with very little effort. Holds the tiles in place when cutting and is extremely accurate. Can cut large tiles and thin strips as well as being able to cut tiny little squares.

Great tile cutter. Great service. Would use seller again & recommend. Thank you

Very easy to use for a professional results. Very well made which I am sure will last a long time. Very pleased with it.

Don't pay attention to all these paid for reviews. I have just sent the Cutter back after 1 job. I am a Professional Tiler and the cutter promises so much but was a massive let down. TTe pressure pads that absorb the cutting of the tile move and this means it is very difficult to get a straight cut. It also does not cut on the centre line. I found it to cut well but never in a straight line. Every tool I have is Bosch & when I saw this go on sale I jumped at it but will now go back to using Rubi. Very disappointed

Absolutely brillaint piece of kit, flies through porcelain, on a par with Rubi and Sigma cutters but more convenient.. Top product from Bosch
