In my opinion, no. They look like they're gasless (flux core only) and 110/115/120V. The difference between those and a MIG (gas) 220/230/240V setup is *enormous*.

I've been using a Drico 150D MIG from Amazon since 2016. It's a 150A 220V unit. I've built front and rear bumpers, carts, done automotive sheet metal work, all kinds of stuff. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be available anymore, but it shows that a Chinese MIG can be reliable.

I had an AHP TIG, too. It died one month after the warranty expired. The cost of shipping it for repairs would be half the cost of a brand new one, plus the repairs, which I believe were only warranted for 30 days. I replaced it with an Andeli TIG off of Alibaba and it's been working great. It's not worth paying the markup to an American reseller of Chinese welders, in my opinion. Just go to the source, save money, and plan to buy another if it fails. Plus, it's been my experience that the Chinese sellers will at least attempt to troubleshoot problems, and they'll provide schematics. The American resellers just give extremely basic tests and then say you need to ship it back and pay for repair, and they omit schematics from the manual, probably to hide the fact that there are a handful of Chinese welder designs repackaged into countless brands.

Yes, times change. But, this is still the best hardware shop out there for folks like me. Can't complain.

Your welder depends on the welding requirement. My suggestion would be to take a local community college welding class and learn by doing. Then decide what your needs require and don't buy it from HF or YES, but that's just me.

Single use tools for cheap
Some are cheap you just gotta look at what you're buying I've had tools from HF outperform tool truck brands like snap on and matco same warranty. I think its a great deal for homeowners,diy's etc that don't need a 89.99 flathead screwdriver from snap on lol.

Yeah days 1-4 already gone. The battery deal is crap too because it's not for their Edge brand which has done well in YouTube tests.

I went to pick up the Pelican-like case yesterday and just squeaked out one orange case. The manager showed me ONE that was hidden under a Christmas tree in the front of the store with a bow on it.

The entire store got 4 black, 2 tan and 2 orange ones for the whole event at the $20 price. So if you want something note that there are super limited quantities in store for some of these items. There were 2 other guys looking for the same items when I was in there that went home empty handed.

My local store seemed to barely have any in stock. I went to a store a bit further away last week and they had tons. That store was much nicer and bigger than my local store.

Is the polisher decent?
It's fantastic! DA polishers are so much more user-friendly than a traditional buffer and these stand up to use very well. I had to replace the backing pad on one of them after 50ish hours of use but it could have also been related to me dropping it.
