Events like this are why I have only bought welders from a major manufacturer ie: Lincoln, Miller. I am sure cheaper brands weld similarly in the hands of a qualified welder (not me) but last thing I want to do is have it break and the parts aren't available or if they are, only through one source that is backordered.

Hobart, Lincoln, Miller are the most common in my area. At work we are strickly a Miller or Lincoln shop (fabrication shop) at home I use a Hobart Ironman 210 my last job we had a snap-on welder and that was great until it broke (super rarely) |
