Heavy Duty Welder

hobart 125 ez or hobart 140?

i am interested in buying a new mig welder and ive been told that hobart is a good name. i have looked at a few hobarts and i cant decide what i want. the 125 ez looks like a good one but cost a lil more than the 140 amp. is there a reason for this or is this just coincidence. also are all of the new hobart migs ready to go without the hookup or use of gas. i do mostly hobby welding and building things like tables so i wouldnt need a real heavy duty one i guess but if the 140 amps is cheaper im thinkin i should go with that one. maybe im wrong? what do you think.

The Hobarts ( which are actually manufactured by Miller ) that you name are new to me. When I purchased my Hobart 135 the other option I had was a 145. The difference, and what you should consider is; What is the thickest material that you will be welding ? And, what power supply do you have available ? Again, when I bought my 135, 240 volt power supplies were “available” at both my home and work but, WIDELY scattered. 110 volt however, was readily available without the use of an extension cord and, I was able to weld up to 1/4″ single-pass with it, which was about all I needed to do with that welder anyway. Heavier guage steel was done with the shop’s MIG.

Bought the Hobart in 2000 and use it just about every work day …. sometimes for just a few minutes or so, sometimes for hours at a time ( with 75 – 25 / solid wire or, no gas / Flux Core ). It claims to have a 20% duty cycle but, as hard as I ‘ve used it, it’s never given up.

Most wire feeds are “ready to burn” out of the box, with no shielding gas, using a flux Core Wire. However, your weld QUALITY will be less ( more pin holes and splatter ) using flux core wire instead of solid wire and shielding gas.
