Me? My father-in-law has a Miller Trailblazer, and my brother-in-law has several big Lincolns and ESAB's at his shop, so if I ever needed anything welded 1/4" and above I'm set. So.what are you planning to weld? Get the welder that will satisfy your most demanding needs, or you'll limit yourself.

They don't have the easy 110v availability of the 140 or 125's, but you get a lot more power. Gad, Id love to be able to pick up the 125 EZ with that savings, but Im still working on trying to learn to stick weld first. Of course, depending on what you want to do, you may find a HH187 or HH210 the better choice. 1 Hobart welders on sale 07-30-2012, 09:56 PM I was checking on stuff on the Tractor Supply website today and noticed they have cut the price 30-40 on three of the Hobart welders the 125, the 125EZ and the 190. If I could have, I would have gone HH140. It also has additional features such as adapters for 8" wire rolls (optional on the 125's), and a removable gun cable assembly. The general consensus is that the HH140 would be the "best" choice of a novice if you can swing it because it can do FCAW and GMAW process right from the box (yes, you have to procure a gas cylinder for MIG). I bought it instead of a HH125EZ because I wanted MIG, and instead of a HH140 because it was all I could budget and afford (You do what you have to do, and no one can say otherwise ).ġ40 - MIG ready out of the box.

Great for light duty use and small projects up to 3/16".ġ25 - Same as EZ but with optional kit will run GMAW (MIG) process. No adjustable wire feed - but that's the point with the EZ. There are some sweet welds being made with this machine. From what I have gathered from those who use it (search past posts), it's not to be underestimated. Thanks for any help or information.ġ25EZ - FCAW only. It seems as though everyone seems to like the 125EZ but how about the 125? Is there any internal difference? Sorry all the questions.I just want to be able to make an informed decision before shelling out the bucks. Can anyone advise the internal settings (amp and wire speed) for the four settings on the 125EZ? I have looked everywhere trying to find the specs on the four settings however, I have not been able to do so. I would not have to make a road trip or go the mail order route. On the other side, the 125 EZ is available in town for $299.00. I like that you can alter the settings on the 125 and also add gas later on if you desire. Does this seem correct or am I completely off base? I am almost worried the 125EZ is too limited once you begin to learn what you are doing. I have decided on either the Handler 125 or 125EZ. I want a basic unit for personal, home use for various home and auto related projects. I am a complete rookie and want to begin to learn the art of welding.
