My real question is...what do you think about this one? Waste of money or learnable on your own with practice? Is this one worth the money they're asking or should I just stick with my MIG?
YESWELDER TIG Welder 205Amp HF TIG/STICK/ARC 2 In 1 TIG Welder 110&220V Dual Voltage TIG Welding Machine with Foot Pedal Included TIG-205DS https://a.co/d/fvR2EJw
One Yes Welder was tested on a youtube channel not sure if it is that model but missed its quoted output numbers.

If I was looking for an affordable TIG, especially one that can do Aluminum it would be a Primeweld TIG 225

Has a 3 year warranty and Free shipping Both ways if there is a problem . It also comes with a CK Worldwide Flex torch.



Over 1200 5 star reviews on amazon and several guys over on Welding Web have them and seem happy.


If you just need DC the Lotos LTPDC2000 is less money and also has a plasma cutter. I have had mine since 2015 and other than replacing the Plasma cutter torch ( button went bad) it has been a Good unit. Does a Nice job on DC TIG

But, Again Primeweld has a better warranty of their similar unit. In a DC TIG and Stick only it would be the TIG Stick TIG 200DC which is priced at $450 but again has a 3 year both way shipping if you should have a problem.
