I want to get a 110v Mig unit. How would this be for a "Beginner" model? I am also considering Longevity Migweld 140 and Eastwood 135. Thanks

This is a fantastic little model. I am used to stick welding, and all the frustrations associated with that. I picked this thing up, and after a couple of minutes getting used to it, fell in love. So far, all I have used is flux core wire, and it is so easy - all you gotta do is get ready and squeeze the trigger. I've used it for some small stuff (although I think you can go much smaller with the mig aspect), and am currently building a large, tow-behind grill. The material I am working with is 1.5" x 3" x 3/16" thick steel tubing for the trailer frame, and this little machine is handling it easily, and making great looking welds with excellent penetration. I honestly don't know if I'll ever go back to the old buzz box!

What is the duty cycle

This welder has a 20% duty cycle. It is the amount of time the welder is functional without overheating. High end industrial welders that have 100% duty cycle can run continuously. Most welders for the DIY person are 20%. For every 10 minutes the welder can weld 2 minutes straight without overheating problems.

does it come with the upgrades or is that extra?

Hi Oscar, it comes with all the upgrades, you can see the great quality of this welder as soon as you get it out of the box, get this welder you won't be disappointed.

Does this plug in to a standard wall outlet or need to be hard wired to 110 at the breaker panel?

yes it plugs into a regular wall outlet the 140 amp is the highest you can go before you go to 220 plug
