Local welding shop wanted $688 for a Miller 140( 110v) unit, which I think is too high, but then again, I'm not paying for it. Since I do 99% of the welding at work, it would be nice to have a somewhat decent unit to use. The 3 year guarantee sounds appealing, too.

I know two people who have the Eastwood units and both are very happy with them.
For that guarantee....it may not apply to commercial use. Check the fine print.

I HATE it when other people screw up my tools!!!!! All my life in cabinet shops and running installs, had crews lose, steal, break, abuse and just plain disrespect the fact that those tools were bought and paid for with someone elses hard work. One of my all time worst pet peves. Tied right up there with crappy drivers in rush hour traffic. LOL!!
