(More customer reviews)Got one of these when Northern had a store wide sale, priced right, took a little adjusting to and after a month, the feed for the wire inside quit, so I returned it for a new unit. Works well, but a little touchy on the range for the feed rate. Seems to blow out the circuits in my garage (on a dedicated line) when running on high for any "extended" times, like longer than five minutes. It took a little bit of finagling to get it set-up, but does a decent job otherwise. I used both the flux core wire and eventually bought an airtank for "no slag" welds. I'm used to the Hobart 135 (now the 140 series) which I use a fair amount at work. It is a lot more forgiving, and I'm selling this and getting one of the new Hobarts. Last I checked, Northern didn't have these on their website, but may still be the stores. Good deal if you want an inexpensive, basic set-up. Welds thin gauge to 1/4", but anything bigger, you'll need more power.
