A hobbyist or a small shop will not outgrow this machine. One thing is they do recommend a 50amp 220v circuit and a 30 amp 110v circuit. Might not be right for a high volume, 8hour a day welding shop but it may survive for a couple of years. But you could buy three for the price of a Lincoln or Miller of similar capability. Manuals have a lot of information and are surprisingly good for a machine in this price range. It has the feel of a quality machine and it comes with a 3 year warranty. For the price this is an amazing machine.
The company warranty, complete parts inventory, exceptional full color user manual with clearly written instructions in ENGLISH, real CK World high quality torch and super smooth foot control.... the list of 'well done' is long.
In a nutshell? Watch 'The Fabrication Series' review of this machine on YouTube. It is a very thorough assessment with great detail. I have found nothing said in that review to be untrue or inaccurate. In fact, his review is true to the last syllable.
Want negatives? Ok, there are three pretty minor items to date:
The fans are loud'ish and don't shut off via temp sensor. They are sound measured to be slightly quieter than the Lincoln Square Wave, though, in another direct unit review and comparison. They also keep the machine very cool during the heaviest use. Bottom line for me on that... no biggie. I make noise, too, when I work, and a cool running TIG is a good thing.
The ranges on the front dial adjustments could be much brighter and more visible. Yep, they could. It would bother me more if I hadn't already memorized them. (I use this machine regularly.) Its a legitimate short fall, though.
The "On/Off" machine switch is on the back. An odd location, but I also find that tolerable and well memorized at this point.
That's it. The machine is capable of very sensitive adjustment to individual needs and conditions. It is intuitive and logical to understand with some very brief training directly from the outstanding Owner's Manual. Arc performance and control-ability is exceptional. I'm flat astonished with the capability, ease of use and overall quality of this machine. No, I'm not sponsored by anyone for anything from any company. Its a damn fine machine.
One last note. I bought this after finding out that competitive models (I purchased this TIG and the PrimeWeld Cut60 together) from EverLast would not sell to me if my credit card's address is different from the delivery address... with no provision for exception/explanation when I was ready to order. I have my card billed to a rented Post Office box for security reasons... the very reason they claimed they wouldn't sell. Interesting. What's also interesting is that I had been planning these purchases from EverLast for many months and didn't consider the PrimeWeld tools because they were collectively $2000 less... it just seemed too cheap. But then I encountered the EverLast roadblock, started seriously watching the huge number of machine reviews and got more informed. They're both imports, are reputed to be excellent quality (which I now know about the 225), great service, parts availability and warranty (PrimeWeld's is better) and the PW products left $2k extra in my account balance. Two hours later, my PrimeWeld order was in. Two days later, I had equipment on my doorstep.
I'm very happy I did my research and saved the money to put into more tooling needs. I can buy this TIG two more times if it pukes and I choose to, and still have money left vs. the EverLast unit's cost.
WATCH the Fabrication Series review of the PrimeWeld 225. It is worthy of your time.
