If this is going to be your only welder, you may want to move up to the Hobart 185. It requires 22ov wiring, but the bigger welder makes welding a lot easier for a newbie welder. The 110 machine will work on most things, but it isn't as easy to use and it requires a little more work and skill to use than a 220V machine. I have known several people that started with a 110V machine, then quickly out grew it.

oic well i wouldn't really say that im a newbie ive done welding classes for the last two years of high school and i have a 220 stick but its old and the cords are brutal i was more just wondering if this welder will get the job done because it comes with a bottle and everything

For that price you can get a hobart handler 187 (220V machine) at tractor supply for $599. You are only looking at another $100 for a decent size bottle at your local welding supply. Most places will give you a discount because you are a student welder.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner. Northern Tool had a black friday deal for a Hobart Handler 140 and a welding cart for $440.

Actually, they still have the same deal for $480. Free shipping and free welding cart.
