Home depot Husky branded welders

admin

Haven't come across these before.Prices look pretty decentThey have a whole line: multiprocess, mig, flux cored, tig, stick, plasma, 120, 240Looks like a 3 year warranty, home depot is usually GREAT about anything husky branded.Warranty/return is the name of the game on cheap tools, ESPECIALLY anything electric.https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Si...80DV/318925608https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Si...51654-23-12030https://www.homedepot.com/p/Single-P...51654-23-12030https://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-Si...51654-23-12030and more

Reply:Pretty much agree with not buying 120 welders, though my welder will easily weld 3/16ths in all positions with minimal prep on a good 20 amp circuit.3/16ths is more than enough for most hobbyist welders.  Also if you add in joint prep, preheat, and multipass you're in business for just about anything most small welder owners would ever tackle.
Reply:The first Husky welder is 240 and 120 volt.  One of the stick welders is 240/120 also.  Lots of welders on Home Depot site.  Some really cheapbut don't know about the quality.  Probably Chinese.
