Hobart 500578 Multi-Handler 200 Welder and Hobart 770890 Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet Bundle

This is my first welder. I was saving money for something decent for a long time. I tried to start with Lincoln Electric 211i. First order didn't come on time so I canceled it. Second unit came in a horrible shape(see my review) so i returned it and man I glad I did. This welded is much much better value for money. Not only you get Mig, stick, tig for 30ish dollars more plus this unit comes with fan-on-demand option. It is so pleasant to work and study with this welder. When you are preparing your part for welding it is dead silent. I mean, if you work in the shop and your coworkers drop steel all day long it doesn't matter but for me in my personal shop it does matter. Plus this guy is a beast so much power! Built quality is also great. Don't be upset with the fact that it is made in China. It doesn't matter anymore. Don't forget that Hobart is a little brother of Miller. Tech support, warranty, parts, service distribution is great as well.

I love this machine . This is a lot of value for the money. So far I have only used the mig and the Flux core . But I have done some incredible welds with this little box and so far only on 120volts . I'm not sure I would even need to hook this to 220. It welds amazing on 120v. Hobart is a strong reputable product and this multihandler did not disapoint

This welder is great for the home garage for small to medium jobs. Set up was easy and it is easy to use. Definitely pleased with my purchase.

My husband is a welder and I got this for him last Christmas and he absolutely loves it for home project.

I absolutely love this welder. Had a Handler 190 and an Ironman 230 and both were great. Sold them and bought this one. Its about half the weight of my 190 and is much easier to load in my truck and go to a job. Welds great on steel and the aluminum spool gun. You won't go wrong with this one.

So far I have only used the MIG setting and I was impressed with that. The machine seems heavy duty and produces better welds that my old lincoln mig 180, my only complaint so far is Hobart not including the TIG pedal, so if you would like to use that process plan on spending an extra $200-250 for the proprietary Hobart pedal or get good at scratch start. Overall still a nice multiprocess machine.

La compré en nov 2023 y apenas la destape para usarla en feb 2024 y no funciona (los potenciómetros ni el botón de selección de proceso) se paso por unos días la garantía de devolución y Amazon no se hace responsable de la máquina tengo que contactar al fabricante y es un problema para comunicarte con ellos ahora no se que hacer tengo 1500 dólar tirados ala basura

I set spoolgun and it work , but i remove to practice tig and now i put it back and doesn't move the spool on gun just on the machine
