Lincoln ElectricPower MIG 211i MIG Welder – Dual-Voltage 120/230 V, 20-211 A Output, Flux-Cored Ready, Portable 41 lb Machine, Model K6080-1

What an awesome machine. I had one at work, and loved it so much I got one for myself. I used to mostly stick weld, but now I mostly MIG. I have NEVER, not even once, adjusted the WFS or voltage away from the machine's automatic settings. I just set the process, set the wire diameter, set the material thickness, and this baby puts out beautiful welds every time. It takes all the guess-work and fine tuning out of MIG welding.

I have had this welder for some time now and I will just say I am very satisfied with this purchase. It has preformed as good as expected and what I like is I can throw a generator in my truck and make quick repairs in the field.

I love this welder! I've had at least three other similar mig welders over the past 15 years. My previous favorite was the Lincoln MP210 (however, it was stolen from my work trailer!).The 211i has all selections for several project details (i.e., wire size, wire type, metal thickness, etc) that make it easy to start the weld close to the settings needed for the project. I'll occasionally slightly adjust the wire feed speed or volt setting from the system recommendations, based on the situation and my experience, etc.This welder is easily a five star rating! Looking forward to many years of easy setup welding!

I like the welder I don't like the cart amazon paired with this welder as it's not fitting on the shelf with handle bolts blocking welder ability to sit correctly. Buy the welder don't buy the cart they say bought together as they make you return it after its put together in order to establish a refund. So you buy it build it disassembled it and return it . I mentioned to take off the cart so others don't get stuck in same boat but it's still posted to sell together. So I'll buy from local stores so I don't waste time returning things from China

Amazing for what it is I bought it for home use instead of using my works welder and I'm happy with it.

I'm an experienced welder but by no means make a living at it. This machine will up your game. I moved from a Lincoln 140 to this 211i being I could not get the constant welding on thicker materials when pushing the welder to it's limits. Both very good machines but this one seems to have better penetration and even 110v will outperform the 140. The auto-selection setup is a solid feature, I have dramatically less slag and spatter. I've only used the Mig side with Gas. I seldom use Flux. If you are looking at entry-level machines such as the 140 and 180 take a hard look at this machine. You will not be sorry and not wishing you should have purchased this machine first. I will be selling my 140. This 211s is well worth trading up for me. Will update as use it more.

Have had the machine for 5 months or so and have had lots of problems with the wire feed. There is an issue with the alignment of the wire guide and the rollers.Lincoln will warranty a repair with new wire feed unit if I bring the welder to my local welder repair shop but they are booked 4 weeks out before they can even get started.I cannot return to Amazon as it has been over 30 days and the warranty repair by the Lincoln approved shop likely will not be finished for at least 2 months.Though Lincoln is going to repair the welder I will have to buy another machine until this one is repaired. Maybe I will buy a blue one.

Using this to redo a classic car. Love it!! Works great!
