Looking at these

.. I have personally used the plasma. Worked good for what I needed it for
I'm sure the mig would work great too..

Also looking at the MULTIPROCESS units from Everlast & longevity


Just looking for some pros n cons

Just judging by their notcher, I dunno. That thing is a piece of shite. $170 piece of shite.

Re:

Alot if it depends on what you are going to do and the life span you are expecting. I was looking at all of these units not long ago, but in the end I decide on a miller mig and hypertherm plasma because they last and the parts should be easily available for a long time.

The issue with the everlasting and longevity machines is that if you need it warranted its most likely going to be a hassle, where you will have to mail it in etc. Also you never know how long these chinese companies will be in business. The reviews I read said good things but in the end I just couldn't take the chance.

If I multi process unit is what you are set on you may look into the machines made by thermal dynamics. I believe they are badged as Tweco machines. I have heard alot of people really like them
