"good welder for the price, getts the job done. control knob is flemsy and hard to turn but cables are long enough to reach work. could use more angles on handle for better placement of sticks. soo farr no problems with duty cycle. could use some better ark starting technolegy and ground clamp."

Hobart AC Stickmate is great,
April 24, 2008
By rjaszczfrom San Antonio, TX
"This is a great value, very high quality for the money. Easy to use. The ability to "dial in" your amperage is awesome, you don't have to use the preset steps like the other brand welders. This is a great adjustable feature to have. My only complaint would be the short power cord and leads. Of course Northern sells supplies to increase the length of both. I would still highly recommend it."

Great welder,

By TeXJ96from Garland, TX
"This is one of the easiest stick welders to use. Starts an arc very easily and is very smooth and stable. The 100% duty cylcle at 90 amps or less makes this great for home projects or maintanence work. I used it to build a custom trailer for my ATV."

Great machine, good price,
March 6, 2007
By WAJoefrom WA
"I upgraded to this machine from a clarke. The difference is night and day. Easy starts, deep penetrating, good welds. I should have bought this welder to start with. It's an excellent price for how much machine it is. I think that hobarts rating of 3/8 in weld thickness is probably smaller than what this machine is capable of. I'm very pleased with mine."
