## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this a good choice for someone with no experience in welding? if not can u point me in the direction of something that is? just trailer mounts**
A: I sold and used welding equipment for 35 years. This process along with the easy settings on this machine make it the easiest to learn for someone with no experience. A simple way to learn is to follow the settings provided for the metal and thickness shown on the label. Hold the tip of the gun 1/2 inch from the metal and make a "spot" weld in one place for a few seconds without moving the gun. Watch the spot weld form and stop when it gets to a size between a pea and a dime. Let the spot cool a little until it is not red anymore. Move the tip of the gun one half the diameter of the first spot and make another one the same size. Do this over and over again until you get very good at judging the size of the spot weld and can make a series of overlapping spots of the same size. At that point you can progress to making a continuous weld. It's a lot like spray painting or running a sewing machine, learn to watch the results not the process. It's a very big help to have a welding helmet that is clear until the arc starts and then darkens so you don't have to worry about flipping down your hood and starting on the right spot at the same time. The auto darkening helmet adds to the cost of the purchase but makes it much easier to learn an use.

**Q: Is the feed head plastic or metal?**
A: The wire feed mechanism on this model used to be plastic but was updated to all metal parts a few years ago. That is what I remember reading when I was researching welders before I bought mine. I bought my unit about a year ago and it came with all metal wire feed components. I hope that is what you are asking. If not let me know exactly what you need and I'll look at my unit closer when I get home.

**Q: how good is it on 24 or 22 g metal? do you wish you bought a machine with infinte settings vs tapped?  are you happy with it?**
A: I've never use it on metal.  I bought this unit specifically to weld aluminum.  I've never weld any thing before (metal or else).  But I was able to weld very thin aluminum (1/8" and 1/16") aluminum.  The chart settings are a bit off but with couple of minutes try and error, it works.  I would choose one with many settings vs capped ones.  Like I said above, it makes me almost a pro instantly.

**Q: What’s the highest amperage output on 120v?**
A: The welding amperage range is 25-140 amps on 120 volts. Same output as the Handler 140 (which can ONLY operate on 120v.) The Handler 210 works good on 120 volts, and even better on 240 volts, if you have a 240 volt receptacle to use. I made an adapter cable to plug into my dryer outlet at home. Works great.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Moderate price, very good quality, and USA made.
*by G***N on March 11, 2015*

This is a nice "concentrated" type of compact welder..... that is a good thing for most folks. It is not a light weight unit with little going on inside of it.The one question that I personally wondered about was if the dual voltage would be worth the extra money over just buying the lighter single voltage unit. Now that I am using it, I think that I will indeed get some use out of the convenience of the 120VAC input. But do be aware, and know, that when using the 120VAC input you will NOT be able to do any heavier welding or aluminum welding unless it is paper thin materials. Aluminum sucks all the heat away so fast that much higher currents and voltages are required than with steel. I put it up on voltage levels 6 & 7 and ran two beads of about 1.5 inches long at 30% wire feed speed..... it tripped a 20 amp single pole Square D breaker immediately. Biut, that is exactly what one should expect to happen, right? Also, Square D is one of the best made and most sensitive breakers on the market so if you have an old GE panel or a Cuttler you may get away with more. (Just a not from a Journeyman Electrician for over 30 years now: the breaker protects the wiring within your walls.... prevents fires, so if it trips there is a reason and do not merely reset and go on. These are thermally triggered so need time to cool down or a wiring fire might result.)This machine has some great engineering in merely the packaging, let alone the rest of the machine! It is well packed and should get to you without any problem. The assembly of it is easier than many and should present ZERO trouble for anyone..... the instructions are excellent.... but what else would one expect from a USA made machine?? To say it is "Made in USA" at least the majority of the unit must be assembled from USA made parts as well as labor - I was glad to buy USA and support my fellow workers.This machine has a novel way of swapping the wire drive wheels too! Just push it in, turn 90* and slip it out, turn it over and slip it back in and it is ready to go: no screws or tools needed at all. The stinger is quite good for the size and price of the machine..... oh yeh, like some commented, the trigger is pretty easily tripped, but most of us do not use the big heavy leather guanlets with a buz box because they are not as hot and do not present such problems to require such heavy gloves. I just used some good medium duty leather gloves and the switch was ZERO problems at all.... at least it was zero for me.Would I buy this again? Yes I would, and I think that if you want a slightly larger/heavier unit with greater capacity than the smaller units, this might be just what you are looking for. Hobart has a very good warrantee, and that too is a bonus. Buy with confidence. Enjoy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hobart Quality!  Highly recommended!
*by S***O on June 23, 2013*

MVP, not Most Valuable Player, but Multi Voltage Plug! This allows you to weld utilizing a 240V outlet in your workshop, or the standard 120V outlet found almost anywhere else!I am only aware of Miller Welders that have this feature as well. I upgraded from a Hobart Handler 187 up to this unit because of the higher capacity, MVP, and the SpoolRunner. The Handler 187 can use a spool gun (to weld aluminum), but you need to purchase the expensive Miller spool gun controller and the spool gun itself (need to spend at least $500 to weld aluminum), whereas this unit already has the spool gun controller built in. The SpoolRunner 100 costs about $200.This unit is very heavy. About 70-80 lbs, so being portable is a frame of reference. It could be light for some people, but heavy for others. You need a good welding cart to hold this puppy!The MVP is super easy to use! No switches to fumble up. Just replace the plug on the end of the cord and you're ready to weld at whichever voltage you choose.There are 7 different voltage settings, and an infinite wire-speed control. There is a welding chart on the inside of the door (to change the welding wire), so you can easily set the voltage and wire-speed.It has a super powerful fan in the unit to help cool it down as you weld. Sometimes the loud noise gets annoying. But it's understandable, as the welding process produces a lot of heat within the transformer in the unit.My only complaint with this welder (along with my Handler 187) is the trigger for the MIG gun is too soft. If you have the welder on and you bump the trigger, the MIG wire will feed. It gets annoying after a while. I think I will need to figure out how to put a stiffer spring in the MIG gun. But, still, I will rate this product with 5 stars.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great out of box experience
*by S***) on August 27, 2012*

I usually TIG weld aluminum, but I wanted to weld thicker/larger pieces faster. To MIG weld aluminum requires spray transfer, and 200 amps is about the bottom end for thicker pieces. The Hobart 210 MVP with the addition of the SpoolRunner 100 spool gun welds 1/4 inch aluminum like lightning! I can weld in a 1/4 of the time of TIG. No stack of dimes look, but nice smooth fully penetrated welds.The MVP 110/220v feature makes this a good light duty flux-core field welder also (although it does weigh 75 lbs, so I wouldn't want to hand-carry it daily). For occational field welding, I throw it in the truck and go! (140 amps at 110v, 210 amps at 220v).Now I can use my TIG for what it's best at, heat control on thin material.I also contemplated buying the Miller 211 MVP with Autoset. I tried the Autoset feature at the local college on two seperate Miller 210's, and was unimpressed. Ended up just simply setting the volts and wire-speed manually. The Miller does have the better continuously variable voltage select vs the Hobart 7 position voltage tap switch. Not a problem for me as 7 taps is more than enough to dial in the sweet spot. They both are quality american made machines. The main pluses for me are the Hobart is somewhat smaller and less expensive. I purchased a new cart and a 125cf cylinder with the cost difference and still had change left over.BTW, If your looking for an indstrial/commercial welder with a long duty cycle, look elswhere. Both the miller 211 and Hobart 210 have limited duty cycles. But for their intended purpose and for their price, they are both top notch.UPDATE: Its been over a year now, and this thing is a dream to use. It welds with a smooth frying bacon sound and it lays perfect beads on steel. I actually now prefer the 7 voltage taps vs the continuously variable voltage control on other MIG's because I seem to find the sweet spot quicker.Highly recommended
