Tile cutting tools - IQ-228 cyclone

What are people's opinion on the IQ-228 dry saw. Since I have several projects I figured renting a wet saw every time would cost more than buying a reasonable saw. Also with the rentals I figured the return time might add pressures to finish something quickly instead of taking my time and doing it right.


Looking at what was out there the IQ-228 looks like a nice saw. Handles a variety of sizes and I figured I could build a small workbench around with 2x4s and plywood and using a radial saw guide as a fence to rip larger formats.


Is it a good saw or would I be better served putting that money into a large and medium score cutter for straight cuts and doing cuts around walls and shower curbs using an angle grinder?


Also might be nice to add a "tools" channel to the forums :)

Currently going to try a CD Products Pure Platinum - https://www.contractorsdirect.com/PT-78-10-Platinum-Porcelain-Blade

It reviewed pretty high. Was debating trying a Pearl P4 since the grinder blade gets talked about highly.
