Great Welder!,
January 25, 2008
By kjasonfrom Kannapolis, NC
"Look at my other reviews...I don't pull my punches, this is a great welder.
I would highly reccommend this welder to the novice. I have welded all my life...I grow up on the family farm. I'm now in the city, and I needed a light welder for simple repairs and projects. This welder is very easy to use, uses a standard 110v outlet, and easily welds the gauge of steel found on lawnmowers and over consummer products. It's so easy to use that my daughters have taken up welding as a hobby."

Haven't welded in years,
September 28, 2007
By Rangermuttfrom Des Moines
"I "volunteered" to build three sets of running gear to support 10' x 14' banners for my son's high school marching band. I purchased 1/8" mild 1x2 box steel from a local supplier then set out to purchase a welder to assemble these sleds. I first looked at a stick welder but contrary to popular belief needed 50 amp service in my garage to run it - which I did not have. After successfully returning the welder to Northern I looked at wire feed welders, having never used one before. In fact, the last time I did any welding was brazing some 1/16" box steel two summers ago with a small bottle setup. I am not a fan of buying low-priced products as most are inferior but with price a big issue this time I chose to go with the 125EZ. The following are some things that I have noticed since using the welder for the past couple of days. Pros I like the 115V - 20 amp service and the relatively light weight of the welder. Mounting the wire in the welding unit and not the gun keeps the weight of the gun down. Only one knob to adjust to select the thickness of the material being welded is convenient. Not having to deal with gas is a plus - and the welds are clean and strong. Cons The unit comes with extra welding nozzle tips and includes two .030 but not any .035. After several welds and much frustration I finally determined that the feed roller was set-up for .024 wire even though the unit comes with a roll of .030. Also, the plastic that holds the gun together broke even though I was very careful not to drop it. Thank goodness for duck tape!
Overall a very good welder at a very low price."

How I learned to weld using the 125EZ in 1 hour,
January 8, 2007
By BobWldrOrgnstPrgrmmrfrom Suburban Chicago area
"I started out wanting to make a wrought iron railing for my front steps. I did some research on the web and went to my friendly local welding supplier. This place had lots of welding expertise and was ready to set me up with a MIG unit for approximately 0. I would also need to buy a tank of CO2 for about 0. So, I'm out the door for about 00, including helmets & protective clothing for my son and myself, etc. I wanted to keep the price closer to 0 and I happened upon the Hobart 125EZ. This unit needs no gas tank, is very quick to set up each time, and extremely easy to use. We bevel our joints so we get deeper weld penetration of the base metal, and the welds have proven very durable. If you are just getting into welding, this machine has worked very well for us. We decide we want to weld, go out to the garage, and are welding in 10 minutes, with no ominous tank sitting in our garage."
