Don't know if they are still available new, but when I bought mine the sip migmate 130 and 150 were highly recommend.

we've driven 150 miles today........
the heater went cold last Thursday........
they check the level when it's serviced don't they?"

And i have welded chassis legs and alllsorts and its a great welder even down to welding fine metal, lots of adjustment for a cheap welder.
