Very happy with my R-tec. I've got just a 160 amp ac/dc. Does everything I need in my home workshop environment, couldn't comment on a professional level though.

Try here, propper Yorkshire company. My propper Yorkshire mate works there and knows his stuff. No cheap foreign crap.

Another of my mates has one of their MIGs and it's the best MIG I've ever used. Ask Rich as Minispares, he loves it.

Not sure on price, and not sure I can get you a discount, but I could ask if you're interested.

R-Tech 201A machine here, must be some 10 years ago I got it.

I'm still crap at welding with it, but I'm sure that's me, not the machine lol. The occasional weld does look nice.

A friend has bought a couple of their machines too and does a lot of fabrication and he thinks highly of them.

Cebora, had it about 18 years.

It wasn't cheap back then but that was long before eBay and cheap Chinese.

It was the best recommended back then and has never let me down (any bad welds being down to me, not it....)

They are not retailers Stevie hence no prices, they are manufacturers and don't deal direct with public .
