MK Diamond quality?

[Thomas Carey]

I would like to hear from those of you that use MK Diamonds, saws etc how the product has performed for you? Do you wish you would have gone with another brand, or are you happy with the product?

I've used their brick chop saw. I think they are fine but not perfect. Crazy $$$

I bought one of their wet saws for tile about 10 years ago and it does a great job. It was around $500-600.00

Bought an MK-100 off Craigslist for a tile job. Bought a new blade and worked very well. Perhaps a little bothersome for angle cuts but could very well be me as my first tile job.

Overall, good quality and worked well.

I have an MK-370. It's just barely passable for small jobs and is by no means a professional-level saw. It's quite literally an angle grinder mounted on a metal post with a sliding table underneath it...

I have an older MK370 equivalent. It is over 20 years old. We have used it on about a dozen homeowner type jobs. Certainly not a pro model but plenty accurate and stout for the homeowner. Quality tool, and I think they are still made right down here in Long Beach, CA. Customer service is excellent. Only things we've needed were a new set of brushes and I lost the wrench for changing blades.

Could be my imagination but the diamond blades are much cheaper today than they were 20 years ago.

It will pay for itself in one job.
