Default eastwood 135 mig

The eastwood 135 mig welder is currently 199 online. I hope to one day start a build thread and I know I will need a welder. Does anybody have any expierence with this one or know would this one be a good one to use for this project? Thanks for any help

I can't say for the MIG 135 but I have the MIG 175 and I love it. Every body that has tested it is amazed at how well it welds. The only small issue I have is: 220V only, not sure if the 135 is the same. Very nice start up arc and very smooth bead. I liked it so much I also own the TIG 200 and Plasma -Cut, both excellent tools as well.

Plastic face and controls so it is not a job site welder, however, for the Home Shop and value, very hard to beat. One very nice feature is the gun / torch parts are available at most welding shops so no waiting for mail order parts.

Great Value
