Buyer Warning. in Welding Gear

I bought this product to finish some work on my truck only to find that the car doesn't just look like it was previously taken apart due to chipped paint, scratches and Deformation of the screw holes, but that didn't work out of the box either. I've tried this in multiple outlets with different electronics to no avail. After trying for about an hour, I gave up and emailed the company's customer service department. They instructed me to disassemble the car to find out what was wrong with it and I immediately encountered a number of problems. One of the wells was missing and a regular nut was used instead which made it almost impossible for the welder to put it back together properly, one of the wires had snapped from the board, the connector wasn't even connected to anything. the bottom of the car and everything was caught within the first 60 seconds of slipping over. Realizing that there was so much wrong with this particular machine without even looking closely, I lost all faith in it. The sales rep I contacted kept trying to get me to fix the welder myself, which I found pretty ridiculous considering all the unknown/fragile parts inside and the lack of proper tools to do the job. I returned it the next day. Very disappointed in this product but you get what you pay for.
