Make sure it's perfectly level because it can get messy, real quick.
If it's not sitting level, the water will run off and onto the floor.
And with any saw, it's all about the blade.
Go to a different store and spend the money on a good diamond blade.
It's worked pretty well for me so far. I've never used a tile saw so I can't compare it to a name brand.

No, I've got a rubber mallet that is still like that after at least 4 years. Maybe I shouldn't store it wrappen up in a plastic bag, but I can't stand it? But maybe they just added more "rubber stink" to my mallet than they usually use?

Toss it onto the back porch for a month. It'll settle down.
That said, I bought two of the large HF rubber mallets and was using
one to help seat flagstone. I ended up breaking a 2' dia. piece with
the damned thing because it was too hard. Alas! A 3# drilling hammer
and tubafore works better and is safer to move wet sand.

Vacuum de-gas it - good reason to buy that HF Vacuum bagging kit that
you might use for veneering once sometime before you die.

One of the kids that works at the sign shop bought some Chinese tires
for his 'Fast & Furious' Honda Civic.
What shit. Totally unsafe garbage. Sidewalls with bulges and that
smell.
I know that they can make a reasonable tire as well, but look out for
cheap Chinese tires.
