I love the hot start feature, it makes for really easy starts. I love that it's compact and I can carry it around. For a small machine it packs a hell of a punch. Also, I love that weldclass company and I grew up in the same town GO Tamworth! I appreciate products that do what they're supposed to. This one does, and it's quality. Can't fault it. Thanks weldclass Show details
Cost-effective, compact & transportable welder – I found the Weldclass Force 135ST an easy to setup and use welder, even after having not welded for over twenty years. After just a little practice I was able to weld up framing for a new set of barn doors quickly and easily, saving me $$$. This welder is so light and compact it will be a real asset around the home and when touring Australia in our 4x4. Happy with my purchase, David

This little thing is a ripper as we are doing community maintenance work in Fiji and it weighs nothing for transport and packs the punch of a much bigger unit. Well done Show details
Follow-up · Weight was great up on scaff doing repairs at only 2kgs it is easy to carry. A box of welding rods weighs more. It excels at bracketry and light repairs.

Bought this welder for a small job at home but it has proven more versatile than I expected. I have used it beyond the original job and it has become my go to welder. From the light weight steel to heavier plate it has not let me down. Small light weight and easy set up makes it a great tool in the shed and out in the paddock. Show details
This Welder by far is the most Compact, Lightweight and cost-effective inverter welder i have ever owned! If you're after a stick or tig welder that's not going to break the bank and can compete with your Top shelf brands, look no further. Show details
Appears to be good quality. Leads are not to thin and are surprisingly heavy guage which is great. Machine duty cycle impressive for compact size unit. Welds 3.2mm rods with ease at 120-130amps. Show details
Excellent welder, very portable and light but welds anything I need to on the farm. Well worth the price, Australian made with a 7 year warranty for $239, it doesn't get any better than that! I bought it online but went into a local welding supply shop for some electrodes and the salesman asked what power machine I had. When I told him 135 he… Read more
exclaimed...." Oh a Weldclass they're a fantastic welder. We sell heaps of them and have never had one come back for repair". I must say this convinced me I had made the right decision.
It’s a great little machine. The hot start is very useful for tricky work like mismatched metals and it makes an average farm welder like myself feel much better about themselves. It’s a world away from the old CIG easyweld machines I taught myself on. Looking forward to trying TIG. Show details
Great little welder, works perfectly when using it with our 7kva generator,really useful when using it away from mains power. Lightweight and compact. A great machine. Show details
I need to do some light welding and attended a welding course. Then I wanted to buy a cheap welder, but not too cheap. Looking online, I saw that Weldclass are an Australian company, with a 7 year warranty on welders. That is what convinced me in the end - an electrical appliance that can be used outdoors with a 7 year warranty shows me that the hardware is high quality and serviceable.
The stores that I have viewed the product in have had very good things to say about this little welder's duty cycle and value for money compared to the competition. I will carry this in my motorhome in case any emergency repairs are required in my travels. The small size of the unit is a major plus for me. The 7 year warranty is an excellent feature that convinced me to make the purchase. Show details
A very capable and compact machine. So easy to carry and use around the property. It has replaced my old welder which weighed about 30kg and had wheels. Loving it. Show details

This tiny welder is first class. The hot start feature makes for an easy arc strike every time. The compact size, light weight and easy use would be ideal for farmers repairing equipment and machinery away from the workshop. Show details
Great value – So far so good, I bought the machine to throw in the work truck for emergency repairs. Can weld 6mm for about a minute. Can’t go wrong with a 7year warranty but don’t forget to register within 30 days of purchase. Bit rigged if you ask me as I waited nearly four weeks to receive my unit then on had a couple of days to register. This 30 day period should be upped to 60-90 days Show details · 1
The compact welder that punches above its weight – This is a compact welder that is small and light. Easy to set up and use. Great results from day one. My main use will be as an MMA welder. Having DC TIG capability is a bonus. Very happy with this purchase Show details
Don’t be fooled by the size – I bought this welder with a degree of scepticism but having been assured that despite it’s almost ridiculous size it would far outperform my old SIP 140. They were right. No sticking and a steady seamless weld almost guaranteed. I bought this to use with an 8kva genset and because of it’s size it will be ideal around the farm. Australian company with a local agent is a bonus.Very happy. Show details · 1
Super little unit – Great little welder that packs a big punch. Small and light weight, which is easy to transport. Good quality leads as well. Two thumbs up. Show details
unbelievable performance stick welder – I have owned a few stick welders over the years but honestly this new 135ST beats them hands down. I never thought such a small compact light weight stick welder could perform as good as it does. I'm only a self employed handyman and this welder would be one of the best tools I've purchased of late. i would have to rate it at 10/10 overall. Thank you. Show details · 1
Ian small farm and bush block – This is a great little welder excellent quality made in Italy. Plugs into a regular 240volt power point easy to use led display makes dialing in easy. Can arc up to 3.2 mm rods quality hand piece and earth and the leads are longer than most other small welders. The small size is also super handy.
Great tiny power pack (fits in the back pocket of your seat) – Been a great little welder that fits behind the seat in my seat cover pocket, very handy to just always have a welder on you and when it’s so portable and powerful, why not. So far it’s worked on up to 16mm plate so plenty of power there. Show details
Small but versatile – I was a bit sceptical at first , but it’s a fantastic unit , I was impressed with the hot start option and VRD is a real bonus, the cables are excellent quality and at 3mtr length on all the cables is fantastic, the gloves are a real bonus also and are quality made and dialling the amperage is fantastic on the fly , I tried different size rods and… Read more · 1
handles them with ease, it’s definitely going to be a real asset for me as it’s size and weight will make it easy for onsite jobs, I think it’s an amazing investment and definitely worth it dollar for dollar, cheers highly recommended.

Quality product - at a great price – Easy to use! Good quality cables and even came with gloves. Arc welding starts easily. Runs well and light enough to take up a ladder. Love it! Show details
Small but versatile – I saw this for sale at the local RAFF store (Mitre 10), and couldn't go past it. It is so small , taking up very little space on the shelf and still has enough power for all that I need at home ,(and the Men's Shed I belong to) It's a great machine that I would recommend to any welder no matter how experienced.
