Miller Millermatic 212, should I buy?

admin

I am going to look at a used Miller 212.  It's about 1 year old and includes a fairly new 150 CF tank.  (It doesn't have the optional spool gun).  I have only welded a few times, and that was 15 years ago.Is this a good deal for $1175?  It looks to be in great shape.I was looking to buy a new Miller 180 or 211, so this definitely meets all my requirements.  And I will only be using 220 single phase, so I don't need a dual voltage model.Thanks!Ken
Reply:If it is only a year old you should have 2 years left on the warranty. If you can get it for $1175 with the tank you are getting a good deal. I wouldn't worry about the spoolgun unless you plan on doing aluminum.I have a 212 with the 30a spoolgun, very happy with it.MillerMatic 212, Lincoln Precision TIG 225, Hypertherm 45XP
