It is fine. A bit harder to control blowing through due to the wider penetration.

Needs s decent wire feeder for spatter-free results as it has a low range of usable wire speed.

I use it at times mainly for steel around the 3mm thickness, occasionaly I have had thinner to weld and could not be bothered changing the bottle and seemed ok to me, decent welds with no problems..perhaps spatter's a bit more and as Shenion mentions, runs a bit hotter but my MIG goes down to 15 amps so can control that easily

Hi ,
Works ok with thicker metal but get tricky for thinner work.
