Just to keep this thread going, I'm also interested in a new welder, Miller Syncrowave 200. They are going for right around 2k or I found a 180SD for 1500, to me its a no brainier to go to the 200, or is it? I'm just a beginner TIG welder if anything just around the house use etc. Ive read a few posts saying the Dynasty is the way to go but added cost I'm having a hard time justifying.

if you have the space and the power, im not sure you could justify the cost as a newbie. for me, the size was the reason i spent the extra money on the dynasty. my cart with all my tig stuff, including all the rod holders and bottle is much smaller than just the syncro machine.

Id like to equip myself with a good unit something that i wont outgrow, I really like the part about the Dynasty using a lot less power, means i wont have to put in a sub panel maybe ill just save some more coin and hold out.
