I bought a complete welding outfit from Northern Tool earlier this spring. I decided on the Hobart 210 and couldn't be happier. I probably spent a little more on a welder than most hobby guys should have, however I had to have a machine that was capable of welding metal at least as thick as my frame. The Hobart has all the same consumable part numbers was well as replacement parts as the Miller machines. Yet they cost 200-400 dollars less depending on model. Bottom line, I'd go with the Hobart and not look back. I couldn't be happier with the way mine has performed.

** Edit, I would not recommend the Northern Tool welding cart/cabinet. It was $150 bucks or so and not worth it. Cheaply made.
