All they are is a motor, a diamond blade and a water trough. The blade
is all that counts, and can be changed anyway.

They are often described as wet. Do they all keep the blade cool by
having it in water when it is below the table?


Yes. It fills ups with tile sludge after a few hours.
The blade sprays sludge and water everywhere. Even with the guard down.


Thanks for everyones answers any recommendations for blades?


Since you've quoted Turnip, best not to take too much notice of him. Those
who have used these things for a variety of tiles soon find out they are
not all the same.

I did a very large bathroom top to toe with porcelain tiles. All with just
one wheel. My two Plastplug units use a different size blade - and the
expensive one with the larger blade seems a lot kinder on them. Make sure
you don't run out of water, and let the blade do the work.
