 It's OK for the amount of use I give it.  I bought the 220v model since
my garage already had an outlet in place.  Mine has four power levels
(set by two toggle switches, one labeled Low/High and one labeled 1/2,
so e.g. Low-1 is the lowest setting, while High-2 is the highest).

It has a smoothly variable wire speed, but the wire feed drive is pretty
flimsy looking; I doubt it would stand up to professional use for a long
time which is probably why you never see these in a commercial shop.

But for my occasional needs to glue two pieces of metal together, it's
been satisfactory.  I should also say I have nothing to compare it to;
I've never owned or used any other welder.
