Default harbor freight mig welders

just wondering if any one has any bad/good experiences with these mig welders ? they seem alright for the price but not sure on the quality also what about their plasma cutters for like 700$ ? any input is appreciated

Search. Been covered thoroughly. Basically, they are poorly made and not reliable.

there ok for beginners . if you want to learn how to mig without having to go fork out alot of money go for it. i used to work for HFT , i would stay away from the 90 amp little welders and get the biggest 110v welder you can to avoid having to do 220v wiring unless you dont mind.
