I bought one of these about 6 years ago for $85. I have used it a few times and it paid for itself just on repairing my utility trailer. These machines are AC not DC so there is a fair amount of spatter but for a hobbyist like me it is great. The supply voltage is 120V so you can plug it in just about anywhere. These welders have 10% duty cycle but I only tripped mine once when welding up some rebar cages for the porch footings. If you need a little flux core wire welder this one is hard to beat at that price. Just my 2¢.
