Lincoln Electric Power MIG 211i MIG Welder K6080-1

I'm an experienced welder but by no means make a living at it. This machine will up your game. I moved from a Lincoln 140 to this 211i being I could not get the constant welding on thicker materials when pushing the welder to it's limits. Both very good machines but this one seems to have better penetration and even 110v will outperform the 140. The auto-selection setup is a solid feature, I have dramatically less slag and spatter. I've only used the Mig side with Gas. I seldom use Flux. If you are looking at entry-level machines such as the 140 and 180 take a hard look at this machine. You will not be sorry and not wishing you should have purchased this machine first. I will be selling my 140. This 211s is well worth trading up for me. Will update as use it more.

I really like it very easy to setup and welds really nice

I love this welder! I've had at least three other similar mig welders over the past 15 years. My previous favorite was the Lincoln MP210 (however, it was stolen from my work trailer!).The 211i has all selections for several project details (i.e., wire size, wire type, metal thickness, etc) that make it easy to start the weld close to the settings needed for the project. I'll occasionally slightly adjust the wire feed speed or volt setting from the system recommendations, based on the situation and my experience, etc.This welder is easily a five star rating! Looking forward to many years of easy setup welding!

I'm a bit of a Lincoln fan anyway but man this thing welds good, even on 110 volt its welding 3/16 flawlessly.

I like the welder I don't like the cart amazon paired with this welder as it's not fitting on the shelf with handle bolts blocking welder ability to sit correctly. Buy the welder don't buy the cart they say bought together as they make you return it after its put together in order to establish a refund. So you buy it build it disassembled it and return it . I mentioned to take off the cart so others don't get stuck in same boat but it's still posted to sell together. So I'll buy from local stores so I don't waste time returning things from China

Using this to redo a classic car. Love it!! Works great!

Amazing for what it is I bought it for home use instead of using my works welder and I'm happy with it.

This unit is great and in my view a must have for the small business or hobbyist. With my old welder I was always making poor welds guessing on where to set the feed and voltage while hunting for the perfect "bacon sizzle" sound from the weld wire. This unit propelled me from an OK looking welds to good to great looking welds. You put in a couple of settings and the welder figures out the voltage and feed rate and you can adjust the if needed. It does cost a little more, but is well worth it I highly recommend this welder.
