Hi folks. Total newbie here looking to buy a budget machine to try out welding with.
U.K. based, running of 13 amp 240 home supply, welding outside 2 mm up to 6mm mild steel.
Cheap machine to get going I’m thinking.
If I get into it then I would upgrade later and if I’m terrible it can sit in the shed and I won’t feel to bad about it.

I’ve been looking at these 3 machines and would love feedback.

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice on what type of machine to buy for my needs.

I’m brand new to welding, but consider myself on the upper scale of handy. I’m looking to make my own ‘stuff’ for the garden, initially starting with mild steel lawn/bed edging (3mm thick, maybe thicker), and may move onto other things like fruit cages, troughs, water features etc. I have zero plans to do any car welding etc, so I guess what I’m saying is, rough looking welds don’t matter too much at the moment, but if I can pick up the skill, there’s loads of things I’d like to make.
My understanding is...

The machine is in fact the Rohr MIG200-MI, which has a very good reputation on the Forum.

With an impressive 200A output, this welder can handle materials up to 10mm thick, including low carbon steel, stainless steel, alloys. All of this performance runs from a standard 230V/13A household power supply,
