I love how people without throw around the word "copy" when referring to non US "assembled" machines...and then deny jealousy, after making a reference to an arc quality and then one about parts availability when they have no experience or real knowledge about it whatsoever. Just use fear mongering and hearsay to try make an obtuse point. Every company has its weaknesses and problems and when the so called US built machines aren't any longer US made, but "assembled". I've seen my share of broken synchros sitting in the corner (and have sold a number of welders to replace them too!)...because of the cost to repair them exceeded the value to buy a new unit and expense it off taxes. You couldn't even begin to buy parts and pay labor to repair one of the mentioned Miller units for 300.00 for most any single breakdown.
