Are ESAB MIG welders any good? There is one in my area for $200. Just wondering if I should jump on it, or not. I want a welder of my own, so I dont risk breaking my dads. I also want to get one while I have the money.

Yes, I know Lincoln and Miller are very good, just curious if ESAB is up there with them.


Thanks.

We had millers and ESAB's in our ag shop back in highschool. The ESAB's worked very good.

ESABs are made here in Fort Collins are definately a premium American Made welder.
