Exactly what I wanted!
5 Stars
Exactly what I wanted!
I really only have one question. Why I waited so long to buy this? I have a Miller stick/tig box and love it and was really set on getting a Miller mig machine. I just couldn't justify the extra money for what I really needed. This has handled everything I've wanted it to do so far.It's a heavy machine. Especially with a large spool of wire on board. So actual portability is probably not so good. Could I get it out to the field, sure. Would I really want to haul it out there? Probably not. But I bought this for the garage and it's on a cart so no worries there.Keep in mind, they say it's ready to weld out of the box and they mean with flux core. If you're gonna use gas, you'll need to switch polarity. If you're new to this don't be intimidated, it's an easy machine to set up. Read the directions and take your time. The chart on the door makes dialing in the settings easy.
