This is a perfect machine for the job. It has an instruction booklet and came with a sample roll of flux core wire for steel welding. I ordered a 10 pound roll separately of MIG wire and a small roll of aluminum 4043 wire used that instead. Worked like a charm right out of the box. They have an awesome chart that on the inner panel door of the machine that tells you welding parameters for size, type of metal, process of welding, and weld polarity. I had to check out the chart to see what the settings are for the machine since they don't display voltage, it's just a stepped number system (I might write in the voltages on my machine just to help myself out later).
I have yet to do a bend test with this machine, but I have confidence it would pass. I've only had it a month now, but the build quality seems great, and I'm happy with my purchase.
The only thing I didn't like about it is:
It's not that lightweight. But hey, it's a transformer machine, they're tried and true. It's still light enough to load up I'd need be, just not in comparison to one of the inverter machines. But I bought it to stay on a rolling cart, so I'm not worried about that.
I definitely recommend it, as it's worth its price. And it's a good learner machine since it's MIG. I feel a can have fun with some weekend projects using this machine with friends who will be learning.
I started out on an aluminum MIG welding project. I had never done Aluminum before and I found the spoolrunner very easy to use for even a beginner, and the performance and weld quality was good after I wrked with it for awhile. The suggested settings on the machine for all materials are "close". I also found the spoolrunner a very well designed and high quality piece, but read the instructions!!! Seriously.
The best part (even better than the spool gun) is the steel welding capability.This is the night and day part. The very first steel bead I layed with this machine was the best weld bead I had ever put down in my life. The suggested settings were PERFECT. The wirefeed stability is PERFECT. The arc stability I found to be nearly as good as your average Lincoln, which is saying alot! Due to the good arc and accurate settings, the penetration on this is superb on mild steel.
I like the 10ft Cable on the MIG torch. Thats a good length to have.
I also welded some stainless already (with the wrong gas in a pinch) and this thing worked very nicely.
I was worried at first because I couldnt load .024 wire into the machine, the smallest it takes is .030". But nevermind. It welds perfect beautiful welds with .030, even on thin small sheet metal on the #1 setting. I'll never need to go back to .024" wire.
This package is absolutley a killer good deal for the money. I love that it is good build quality and Made in USA. I love the versatility of the machine (MIG Aluminum and Steel). I will be a Hobart user for a very long time.
