130A MIG Welder, 110V Flux Core MIG Welder/Lift TIG/Stick 3 in 1 Welding Machine with Synergy, IGBT Inverter Portable Gasless Welder Equipment with Welding Gun and 2lb Welding Wire

For the weight and size of this machine, it sure can do quite a lot. I have not used it to TIG yet, but I have used it to MIG and stick weld and it ran consistent beads for 25 minutes without stopping. The leads are a good length for a machine of this size too. While I prefer to be in control of wire feed speed, this machine adjusts the wire feed speed based on the amperage you have it set to and it works great. It comes with a spool of flux core wire and a few MIG gun tips. The only thing I would change is the power cord length, it's fairly short. Overall great machine at a great price for someone who doesn't need to do commercial work. For the average homeowner who needs to occasionally weld, this is perfect.

This welder is great & built better than the Harbor Freight welder for $449. Comparable to my last Lincoln welder but smaller. Packaging looked like it was repackaged when delivered. No issues found. The Harbor Freight welder kept tripping the breaker. This welder does not! I think it may be because of the inverter inside. The harbor freight welder tripped the circuit every 10mins. Some reviews say you need to be on a separate circuit solely dedicated to the welder on a 20amp+ breaker. Logic says yes due to the amperage but has yet to trip a 15amp breaker (for the possible buyers that only have a 15amp breaker to use, this will work) Very sturdy with a durable case and has a tip protector around the wire feed tip that harbor freight does not. It also allows you to stick weld/TIG weld. The trigger is built really well, close to an expensive name brand welder. I recently used this welder to build a trellis with 2in square tubing 8x5 ft. So far it is working great! I have only been using it for a little over a week. Technology has come along way! This unit is also lightweight, small and comes with a carrying strap so you can walk around with it hands free. I will follow up on this review if I encounter any future issues. Otherwise, this is a great buy for any project especially for the price 10.7.23 still going strong after making a gabion wall, trellis, fence & gate. This welder is not only for beginners it is great for experienced welders that need the portable option functioning on a 110 20amp outlet with a regular extension cord hooked to a power strip. Some clients don't have the power needed for other welders and this does the job. It would be nice to be able to turn off the auto speed adjust on wire feed, but it helps with the beginner. Lots of welding options for a great price!

Let me start by disclosing that I am not a professional welder by any means. I needed a welder to fix my lawnmower deck and other random things around the house. I saw this on Amazon for a really cheap price so I researched Arccaptain on YouTube to see some reviews and it seemed to be a great device. I watched 2 hours of how to weld videos on YouTube and ordered this welder. Everything about this unit seemed well designed and me with no experience except videos was able to setup up and use in about 5 minutes after unpacking the box. It was easy to adjust wire tension and power settings after seeing how to on videos. It is a solid welder that after practicing laying beads on a few pieces of metal I fixed many things around my home and fixed a few things for friends. I've used it to weld as thin as door sheetmetal skin back onto door frame on friends van to 1/4" material on farm implements that are still holding tight and strong. The unit itself is light and highly portable and is handy that you can plug into 120v so it can be used anywhere without needing 220v plug. The mig torch and feed are smooth and easy for a beginner to use and the supplied wire is strong and doesn't put off alot of spatter. I've already sent links to a few of my friends who have bought units themselves because they liked mine so much. Great product buy it!

I find it very easy to use and useful for a non-welder somebody that is just put metal together and hoping for the best. I'm sure it does a lot better than I can utilize it

I"m brand new to MIG welding and so far I really like this machine. It does everything a starter machine should do. It comes with two different grounds (not sure why the Harbor Freight models only have one ground). It comes with a 2lb spool of .30 wire which is good to like 16 gauge. Oh and if you like stickers your in for treat!! :) Seriously it's a good machine no issues so far. It has a metal case instead of plastic the ground are about 6' but the MIG torch is only about 4' but who cares if you can reach your work you should be okay. IF I take welding up to the next level I'll stick with ArcCaptain products.

I have owned mine for a year now and liked it so much, I gave one to my brother for Christmas. He loves his as well. First off it is not a Miller. It does not use argon. It is not designed for heavy daily use. It is small, but looks are deceiving. It packs a punch. If you are a garage guy and need a 110 welder for your projects, this little guy performs. My garage does not have 220, so I was forced to use a 110 welder. I originally had a HF 110 mig. It was terrible compared to this one. This welder utilizes DC output and employs heavy capacitors to achieve extremely stable voltage/ current. Rock solid output. So no surprises to your welding puddle, while laying down a bead. It is well built and easy to carry. I take this welder with me when off road camping and use my generator to power it. I added a better grounding clamp and am using Lincoln .030 wire and tips now. Not sure what else to say. It is an extremely good little welder for the money. I would highly recommend. I will probably look into other Arccaptain products after owning this and witnessing its performance for myself. Hope this review helps someone.

Awesome machine, makes welding a breeze and so far is going strong. Easy to use and safe. For price point it’s an awesome buy.

I've been welding professionally since 1992, mostly structural steel. I like to think that I know my way around a welder. This welder performs great for what it is. I'm building a homemade utility trailer, and used both the mig and stick functions on this welder. It will weld 1/4 in steel in a single pass and get decent penetration. I've also welded 3/8 in steel with 1/8 in 7018 rod, but for that, I beveled the joints and ran multipasses. It also welds thin sheet metal very well. The spatter you get off of it is very minimal, I don't even use spatter spray, there's barely anything to clean off. The "puddle" it creates is easy to control in any position, including vertical up and overhead. The slag comes off with very little effort (most times you don't have to chip it, just hit it with a wire brush). This welder is cheaper than the Titanium 125 Amp flux welder at Harbor Freight ($119 using Amazon $20 off coupon), and has stick and Tig capabilities as well (Titanium doesn't). To set your "heat" on this machine, you only set the Amperage, there is no wire speed setting on it. This makes it very simple for beginners. Seriously, no matter where you set it, it will weld smooth (within reason). With stick, you'll have to dial it in according to the rod you're using and the material you're welding, but even that isn't challenging. I don't have the Tig attachment so I can't rate how that works, but that's ok, I've only tig welded a handful of times and I'm not that good at it anyways. If you're like me and don't have 220v in your garage, you NEED this welder!

Excelente maquina, muy facíl de usar.

Produit vraiment fiable ! La soudeuse MIG 130A ARCCAPTAIN est parfaite pour vos projets de soudure, que ce soit pour des travaux à la maison ou des petites réparations. Facile à utiliser, même pour les débutants, avec une bonne puissance et des soudures propres. La qualité de fabrication est au rendez-vous et elle offre un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Très satisfait de mon achat, je recommande !

I'm not a pro welder, but I’ve done a bit here and there. Got this ARCCAPTAIN welder to fix up some garden stuff—like welding trellises for climbing plants, repairing metal pots, and touching up small garden tools. For jobs like that, it works great. The controls are easy to figure out. You just pick the wire size and it sets the power and feed speed for you. No need to fiddle too much, which is perfect when you just want to get things done. It’s super light too. I carry it out to the backyard without any trouble. Makes it a lot easier when you're moving around the yard or working at a friend’s place. One thing though—it doesn’t come with a welding mask, which is a must. I had to buy mine separate. Would be nice if they included one or offered it at a discount. For this price, it’s a great and practical choice. It’s not fancy, but it does the job and it’s perfect for small repairs and garden projects like mine.

Very good for beginners or someone who has not welded for years

Surprisingly good flux core welder. For it's lunch box size this welder is amazing. I do find that after a weld while sitting idle for 5 minutes, the fan is blowing but it will not strike an arc unless you restart it. The power button is on the back side, very unconvenient. It welds really well and has a learning curve but it ios well worth the money. Thanks Amazon for the wonderfull product.
