Millermatic 175 questions

[HookedOnQ]

Been in the market for a new welder and found a millermatic 175 on craigslist for $660. Is this a good price and is the MM175 a good welder? I will be welding mostly 1/4in and thinner and maybe some thicker stuff every now and than

A new Miller 180 goes for about $800 new. For a few dollars more you can move up to the 211 which is a better machine and designed to weld thicker metal.

Thinks for the input. Im gonna pass on it just figured id throw it out there and get some others opinions on it

The 211 is one awesome machine in the compact class.

If you are watching for the used ones. Look for a Hobart 187. In my opinion, you wont find a smoother running machine. But they are few and far between.

I have a 211 and love it but, if I had a 187 here I would use it more.
