Parweld or Sealey

[MaksymilianK]

Ok so i am stuck between a Parweld 171 and a Sealey MIGHTYMIG170, i would go for a sealey because of the money but I just wanna know whether I would be buying crap or a good machine, for me it has to be eurotorch. Anyone got any experience of these machines? or if you know and good machine other than what I've thought about then fire away and tell me.

Hi MaksymilianK,

In a way you've answered your own question, you would be buying crap. My motto, buy cheap buy twice!

I just bought a Parweld 171 and I'm really pleased. I looked for a long time before buying as this was my first welder. This machine will do all the jobs I need to do and then some (I'm a new DIY car builder).

If you can stretch a bit more on the money buy a portamig, I bought a 185 and it is excellent, if you have a look on here I don't think anyone has a bad word to say about them. I will say though we have had a Parweld 171 on hire at work for a few weeks though as their sip 240 has gone wrong and the guy using the welder says it is a good bit of kit.
