(More customer reviews)After years of having to drag any of my welding needs to work, I finally plunked down and bought this unit 2 yrs ago. I'm a fan of Miller products from way back, having cut my welding teeth on a Syncrowave 250 multiprocess machine, and using all Miller products at work from light gauge galv. steel MIG welding (Shopmaster 300 from the 80's, 2 yr old ShopMate 300DX), to running straight SMAW stick welding with a couple of DialArc 250s that range to the late 60's, early 70's. And in my shop environment these things get beat to hell, and little if any repair work has been needed. Miller machines seem to last forever.
That said, this little 120 volt MIG welder has some serious guts to it. It's more than light enough to travel with, and being 120V it can be used almost anywhere. I regularly run it on a 15amp circuit with no problems.
The 20% duty cycle is overly cautious - this machine doesn't quit. Doesn't cut off, either, just keeps going. Welded the doors shut on a demo derby vehicle - nonstop welds. It's insane.
The M-10 gun is smaller but is perfect with this machine. I would probably replace the ground clamp with something a little heavier duty, but thus far it's been fine for my usage. The wire feed motor is a bit on the louder side, but has no problem pushing 0.030" wire at full speed off of a ten lb spool. Spool changes are quick, which is a good thing, I seem to alternate back and forth between 0.023" and 0.030 all the time.
I haven't really had an opportunity to run the Auto-Set as much as I'd like to comment on it. It seems to work well, but I rarely use this machine to weld equal thickness steels. Example - welding 3/16 wall tubing to auto body sheetmetal to replace rocker panels on an off road Jeep.
If you need to do any kind of welding at home, this machine is excellent. And you can get replacement parts (tips, nozzles) at just about any weld supply shop.
