200DX warranty!

Warranty is abysmal, you definitely should Not buy an Everlast welder if you can't be without it for 3-4 months.

BUT you kinda sound like you can though. I mean, 15min in 2yrs,,,,

Buy a Miller, pay twice as much for it, get it repaired Much more quickly for TWICE what it costs out of warranty.

When I say 15 min. It was less than 4" of weld. I am not saying millers don't fail, but in the 30 + years I worked in a custom equipment shop,we had over 40 millers and I only seen 1 break down. It was the newest machine we had. A different shopi worked in for a couple of years had some large everlast MIG machines,all of them worked well. That's why I bought the Everlast. I have a lincon 250 amp MIG machine that I do most of my work with,so that's why the TIG has not been used.

I bought my Everlast Tig machine used 4yrs ago (made in '11). I've welded for Many Hours (@ 25lbs of 1/8 4043 filler alone) at 250A without any trouble. Your problem really is an anomaly or Everlast wouldn't be as successful as they are.

That being said, their Warranty Repair sucks SO MUCH that anyone in business, anyone who depends on their welder, should have a back-up welder for their Everlast (but again, for the cost of a Miller you can buy TWO
