Kempi. Lorch, Thermal Arc all do sets in the 2k+ range

i tried out a kemppi 230 amp acdc today i was quiet happy with the result what do you guys think of these machines compared to any others i hear miller is the best to buy

 

[Shox Dr]

I have a Kemppi 2300ACDC, it the mutts nuts.

I have used many others as well, including an R-tech, all are good, but if you have the cash I would advise on the better makes as suggested. Never used a Lorch but going by the testimonies on here and the importers willingness to support there product I wouldn't hesitate to buy one of their sets
