Nice little welder
For the money it is worth buying if you don't need a lot of power - it copes with 3mm steel quite happily. (I haven't tried thin metal yet - but if I doing so would have a thick plate nearby to strike onto)
It strikes and re-strikes an arc very easily although sometimes has a tendency to stick when the weld voltage drops to normal - however once welding it gives a smooth even flow (and then it is down to one's weldng skill)
I haven't used the mask or wire brush provided - I guess you would only use these if you had a small job and didn't want to fork out on proper gear. I use an auto helmet which makes a massive difference.
The unit is also very light and portable with reasonable cable lengths.
