if you can afford it buy a more expensive helmet and dont be tempted by the cheepo jobs on fleabay.
ive had an optrel for the last 8years and its had dogs abuse but never let me down,
its only just started slowing down when you strike and the shades aint as dark anymore but its served me well.
i would imagine all the helmets for sale in the weld-equip shop will be good quality and value.
when it comes to welding helmets you get what you pay for
