Just ordered a 200dx, was looking for a somewhat portable unit to do some mild fab work, mostly car stuff.I have a 250 miller tig, 200 hobart mig, and a 130 lincoln flux core.I have never had a import welder, so as i looked around i wanted to try everlast, It was the 200 dx or the htp 160.I talked with alex on the phone and he did not try to b.s. me about earlier problems with some of the machines that i had read about.My miller is at our shop too big and heavy to transprt to the house,hence the 200dx, i hope i made a wise decision on this product, guess i will find out in a few days, been welding for 40 yrs not a professional by any means , just an ol dog trying some new tricks.
