Great helmet for the price. I had an emergency weld over the bank holiday weekend and our shop was closed for the weekend so I got these from Northern Tools. The veiw is a bit smaller than my Lincoln and the headstock is a bit stiffer compared to my Lincoln (which is much more expensive). I can upgrade the headgear. This would be a great helmet for someone just starting out in welding. Great helmet at a very reasonable price. 👍
