I'm thinking about buying an electric edge tuner: while I can sharpen edges by hand, this process takes quite a bit of time. I want to sign up for a masters training program, so I'll probably need to tune my skis pretty much weekly; we have 5 skis in out family in total; have two small kids; both my wife and I have full-time jobs... All in all, finding enough time to tune skis by hand can be pretty challenging.
Anyway, I've read most of the older threads on electric edge tuners, and it seems that most people here prefer the Razor Tune to the Swix Evo Pro/Toko World Cup. However, there is also the Snowglide Rhombus, which is a bit more expensive than the Razor Tune but still in the price range that I would consider. From reading the description, I like the fact that it's easier to change the side edge angle on the Rhombus than on the RT, but on the other hand the RT can come with several different wheels while the Rhombus doesn't (and the price of extra wheels is pretty steep).
I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with the Rhombus or could compare the Rhombus and the Razor Tune. And in general while there are quite a lot of reviews of the RT online (as well as of the Swix/Toko), there is very little info on the Rhombus, so I'd appreciate any info.
