Revainrating 3 out of 5

Check out the parts box!

Update: I went to the last place I could think of to get the information I needed. There was a video clip on the description page showing an instruction manual under the top of the welder AND where to open that cover! After finding an almost useless notebook, I was able to figure out how to insert the wire - no, thanks to the instructions! Gentlemen (and/or ladies) Have your brochures proofread by someone who speaks ENGLISH! With all that said, the welder itself works very well for a weekend warrior welder. Note: I am not a welder. I haven't painted a bead in 43 years since my freshman year in a carpentry class. My stitching is ugly ass but my crescent is securely sealed and didn't fall apart when I dropped it on the floor. Now ready to practice some more and move on to bigger and better projects. If you can go through the instructions and learn a little about welding, this welder performed very well on a 20 amp circuit without breaking the circuit or overheating. Update #2: This is a great beginner welder. It closes the weld and it's not that hard to do. This welder arrived on Monday. When I opened it on Wednesday there was the welder itself and a protective mask which I didn't need. However, there was no stylus or other accessories, including any sort of instruction booklet. Maybe a non-beginner can figure out where to put the wire, but I'm not.
