I have one of the larger table saw style, basically bought the one with the
biggest motor because the table size doesn't make that much difference- bigger
is better but when using 20 inch tiles I know most are not designed for that so
it dodnt make too much diff.
It works great, never have used the breaker deals.

Big tiles go down fast. Not much getting tiled anymore
here. Even in expensive homes you rarely see a tiled shower anymore. Just
too expensive. Most quotes for ripping out and retiling a shower here are
in the 8,000 range. I have thought about getting into that... Even if it
took a week that's still an ungodly profit.
As for cutting I prefer a bridge saw. I hate tile breakers.
