I currently do not have 220 in my shop and need a welder for small jobs etc...I plan a addition and upgraded service in the future..

Thoughts on this one....?

Upgrade the wiring in your shop and don't look back, get a good welder, compressor etc..

There is nothing wrong with 110v welders for light material BUT you want one that will take a shielding gas. This particular welder is "flux core" only whereas one that will use shielding gas can also be used for flux core. Also consider spending a little more on a 110/220 volt unit. Then when you upgrade the wiring you don't have to upgrade the welder.

Money spent up front on a good welder will be money saved in the long run.

No flux core!
I have used a millermatic 130 (110v) for 20yrs now,very rare with car stuff do you need more but then I am not building race cars.

I just bought a 110/220 Lincoln tig,can't wait to use it.

This one actually has the ability to add gas...which I would do...

I bought a mig 135 from Eastwood. Works great. 110 volts.

The Eastwood looks interesting...higher output than the Lincoln....

That's a piece of crap, you get what you pay for.

I bought a Lincoln 20 some years ago when they first started making 110v welders for home use... I got it at a Welding supply store not a place like Home Despot/Lowes which sells an inferior version... you want one that has a potentiometer for both wire feed and current, I still use it today.

I bought a good used 120v Lincoln 3200 HD about 8 years ago and it has served me well for my needs. You may want to look for a good used welder for almost the price of the cheaper unit.

Aw c'mon John, stop beating around the bush and tell us what you really think.

Miller has a auto set 110/220v can switch from one voltage to another with adapter the give you.

the best welder for the money....

Another contender.

That's the one I have. Love it.

I am far from an expert but I have that exact welder setup for MIG welding with gas and if welding small stuff is what you will need then that Lincoln does an excellent job for the money! Is there better out there sure there is but for the money it will do the job.

My advice ... stick with a brand name (yes, you pay for that), pick a welder or two from each that is in your price range, compare features (duty cycle is not as critical as some would have you believe), compare accessories. Now shop for the best deal. The advantage to name brand is the availability of accessories, spare parts and the ability to have it repaired locally (if necessary). Seriously, who wants to ship their welder cross country if it breaks!

Some top brands (in no particular order!):
Miller, Lincoln, Hobart, ESAB ....

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...

The Lincoln you listed looks OK, but is pretty weak on power output, I think the specs are 88 Amps, 20% duty cycle at 70-Amps, and a fixed flow regulator?
I just looked up the Eastwood 135. Specs look better, 125 Amp max with 20% duty cycle at 90 Amps, had an adjustable regulator, and is on sale for $259.99 (price seems too good?)
Get some solid core wire and a bottle of 75/25 CO2/Ar will give you nice clean welds. Flux core wire is ok, and should be used in areas where wind can blow the gas shield away, but it spatters quite a bit, and burns a bit hotter than the gas shield which is important when working with thin sheet metal.
If you plan to weld often, you will likely outgrow these smaller welders, but the next cost point is at least double the cost of these entry level welders.

I can't advise on a welder but I can add,
A 220 line is very simple to install yourself.
No need for an Electrical Contractor if you own your home.
It's just three wires instead of two.
Make sure to use the proper gauge wire.
Two hot and one ground.
Have a look at some wiring schematics.
You might just want to add a line now.

Lots of reference online too.
