Looking for any experiences you've had with this welder or company seems like a good deal and had good reviews on amazon.com but just looking to see if anybody on here had had any Good/Bad with it Thanks for the Comments  :thumbs:

I wouldn't trust anything but a Lincoln or a miller.

If i could find a good used affordable one or win the lottery then I would definitely go that route.

looks like a decent welder i really like using a gas welder over flux core it turns out better and cleaner just from expirience

I would suggest looking into parts availability before buying it. Last I heard was that Clarke went under.  I bet you could pick up a good used Lincoln or Miller off Cl for that price
