| Description: | The Forney Easy Weld 271, 140 MP Welder is the best MIG machine for the money. It’s a smaller machine amperage-wise than the Hobart 210 MVP, but it’s significantly more affordable and has some nice features.
It’s a good-quality machine that is ideal for beginners who want to learn on a lower amperage machine. The welder is simple to learn with and has a comprehensive instruction manual that makes the process even easier, whether you have experience or not.
The 140 MP is one of the most popular MIG machines on the market, and it also has the capacity to TIG weld if you want to purchase a TIG lead and diversify your skills. The leads on this machine are shorter than we would like, but very few stock leads are long unless you invest in a Miller Electric 907614 MIG Welder or something similar.
The machine is small and lightweight with a tough, heavy-duty case. This makes it ideal for use outside the workshop where it’s exposed to potential damage and requires being carried. It also runs well off 110 volts if you need to use where you don’t have access to 240-volt power points.
This machine lays a bead almost identical to the Hobart 210 MVP in quality, penetration, and smooth consistency. Considering its price point, we recommend investing in this machine if you don’t need to fuse thick sections and want affordability without compromising on quality. Overall, this is definitely one of the best MIG welders for the money as of right now. |
