I just bought one of these:

I have the big brother already (the 180 mig), now while not as nice as a "name brand" it is quite a lot of welder for the money.

The 135 does not appear to be built quite as well (in terms of the roller), but still should be fine for the limited use I will use it.

BTW: I had a hobart and I hatted it, it would rats nest every time I used it, spent so much time replacing rollers, liners, entire gun, etc... Ended up giving it away...

I am very impressed (for the money) with my eastwood 180. Have not plugged the 135 in yet, but I think it will be fine.

I was considering one of the new "mutiprocess" machines (ESAB, Miller, or Lincon), but this ended up in my doorstep...
