160A ARC Welder Machine by DEKOPRO - 110/220V IGBT Digital Display LCD Hot Start Welder with Electrode Holder, Work Clamp, and Input Power Adapter Cable

Stewart Peterson: Easy to set up, didn't time out while welding. Just a matter of getting used to what setting to have it at on the material I'm welding. Also getting used to such a small machine. Surprised me on how it works

Amazon Customer: Small but impressive. Easy to move and plug in almost anywhere. I run 1/8 rod, no issues so far. No it will not replace my tombstone buzz box. But it is my go to for most small projects.

Richard m.: The lil welder is very functional it'll burn 1/8 7018 rods easily. The eletrical lead hoping into welder is a joke,I removed and replaced with much heavier wiring.

Darell: I got this for two reasons: One was the price and the other was because I cannot afford to put in a 240-volt line right now for my big welder.
The good. It runs well off of household current. With in minuets of taking it out of the box I was able to plug it in and start burning rods. It works well with 6013 and 7018. I did have to run the amps a little hotter than with my larger welder, but not by much. I can plug it into the outlet for our clothes dryer and run it on 240-volt if I want to take the time to move everything around to get to it. It is verry light weight. I can carry it with one hand. The Best thing about it is that I can run it off my Wen 11,000-Watt generator. I have used it on 120-volts, and it does ok. I'm going to get an adaptor so I can plug it into the 240 outlet on the generator and give it a try.
The not so good. The ground clamp is wimpy. It will most likely need replacing soon. But that is not really a big deal. It comes with a combo wire brush and chipping hammer that are really just junk. I did use it to see how it would hold up and it is mostly unusable now after just a few uses.

Overall, I am happy with the purchase. It will weld 1/4 inch...

Laurie F.: Bought this welder as a possible upgrade to an old Century 250A AC buzz-box. I had always struggled with the Century in that the arc was hard to start unless the amps were cranked too high for the rods used and the puddle seemed hard to control (I'm a hobby welder so am working here only from my impressions and what I have read as to how a welder should operate).

Anyhow, was very pleasantly surprised with this machine. Arc is much easier to start, even with cold electrodes and work piece. Laying down bead seems much easier as the rod burns at a slower rate without sputtering or sticking as with the Century.

The welder seems well made - even the rod holder and cables seems to be of good quality. Only possible gripe would be with the ground clamp which seems a little on the light side.

I started with 220V operation burning 1/8" 7014 with good success as noted above with indicated currents ranging from 120A to 80A (it was harder to start at 80A but once started, it went fine which I think would be very useful for welding thinner material). Then tried 120V with the same rod - arc was not quite as easy to start but the rest was similar to 220V, all this on a 15A...

Mark: This little welder went above all my expectations and then some!! I have put this welder through the paces for the applications I need it for and now its review time.

I'm a machinest and mechanic by trade. Our old shop welder stopped working one day and I was on search for something small and compact. I saw the reviews on the little welder and pulled the trigger and got one. I was on the fence because to me I thought I needed the best welder on the market for the types of applications I need and let's face it Lincoln and Miller are the Red and Blue and run the show for welders. After this purchase i can definitely state that it is not the case and Im so glad I did make this purchase! I weld cast, and various types of metals. I do alot of Drive End, Outer End Bell housing for electric motors, Gearbox and Pump Impeller repairs and the arc on this this little welder is mind blowing.

Cast Iron: (240v) (Does not work well on 120v)
I barely even touch the surface and it has the smoothest start on every run. Im running on 240V can weld Cast 99 and Cast 55 rod like butter. Making repairs a breeze and I can get more jobs done so much faster now with a better quality weld....
