Below is the link to My Migweld 200S Review that I just purchased from Simon and Longevity . For Me , It is a Significant step up from welding with a Lincoln SP135 fro the last 4+ years . Still learning the Machine , Have only spent about 25 minutes total putting it together and a few quick welds last weekend and tonight with mig , no stick yet , but hope to play again tomorrow .

As far as Product Review : Well , First , Very Fast Shipping !! Only going from Hayward , ( Bay Area ) to Southern Oregon , But Still , Ordered Wednesday , Received Saturday .
Great packaging . Really Doubt UPS , Fed Ex or even the USPS could damage the welder the way it is cocooned inside its box . Size wise , I would compare it to the Miller 140 , ( 110/120 volt model ) , But this is 220/240 with a lot better duty cycle at way higher amps . Although Large , It is easily carried with its Full length handle on top running from front to back , thus your hands are not crammed into a small handle . Easy access to Wire feed area with unique door that opens at the top rather than at the bottom , Thus if you have it on a cart , You do not need to lift the welder to access wire feed area . Easy changing of polarity for mig with 2 knobs above drive feed , ( for flux core or solid ) . On / Off switch in back is robust to say the least . Looks like a double pole 220/240 Breaker .

When Machine is on , Not loud , Fan runs but a conversation is easy . Since product is really new in line up , Documentation is limited , But Simon and Longevity Crew are working on that , As their Video above shows , ( Great Job , Simon ) . Really the only thing on documentation issue I had was the Wave Form knob . Never had that before , so was not sure about setting it . But a quick search solved that .

Now I am a occasional Hack at Best . My last welding was last spring on my land plane build , So my first couple of quick welds were ???? at best . Understanding settings , changing my technique to match the welders capabilities , etc.... , all are part of my exploring / learning curve . The Link above has pictures of my first couple of " quick " welds , then also posted some additional welds I did last night on some tubing . Total time spent with welder is maybe 1/2 an hour , with maybe 7 or 8 minutes with it on and welding , Or Trying to !!!! , ( Me not the welder , It is only as good as the person holding the mig gun , and in my case that sure is not saying much . ) .

Over All , I am Really Impressed with this Welder . Price , Duty Cycle , Capabilities with Dual Function , Mobility all Lend Itself to be a Great Purchase for the " DYI " type or ranch/farm type situation .
