The warranty on this product is 3 months. 12 days after the warranty the saw stopped cutting only after 20 CUTS!!! Not only that the blade cut crooked. Also the cheap plastic table of the saw is not flat and very difficult to pop in and out. I rate this product with zero stars but I had to put one.

Great tool for the money!

I've rented professional tile cutters before buying the FTS-50. The professional cutters feel more sturdy but this cutter has been a great little workhorse. My wife and I did our bathroom and continue to loan it out to friends who are remodeling. For a budget tile cutter I could not be happier.
