For the tiny amount of time our welders are actually used ------ I think someone buying an Everlast or similar machine would be just fine. I looked yesterday on Amazon -- and a machine that claims to do everything my $4,000+ Miller does --- was offered for around $1,400
It might be a little more of a "gamble" that the warranty etc is honored should you have some issue - but you could buy TWO of them and still be less than my one.
With that thought -- I'm "okay" with it if it fits a guys budget and he picks up the hobby.
