Bought my Weldclass 180MST from TKD. The welder failed at about the 12 month mark with approximately 1 hour of use in this 12 months. Took 6 weeks for Weldclass to inspect the failed unit which to their credit they replaced - although they didn't replace the near new role of wire that was in the welder when it was returned. Also, the warranty does… Read more

not restart with the new replacement welder. Lesson learnt, I'll stick with better name brands or known quality brands in future.

Item was very easy to set up, very easy to use and versatile, suits my needs perfectly. Yet to use arc system but given that the rest has been effortless to use and set up I’m hoping that arc is the same Show details

The Weldclass 180Mst machine I had failed after almost two years. I returned the welder to Atom supply to be checked out under warranty and it was a pleasure dealing with them. After a week I received a call to say a replacement welder was ready for me to pickup. I have never experienced this type of service when trying to get something repaired… Read more

under warranty as it always been a struggle. I can highly recommend the Weldclass and their machines. I’m a boilermaker by trade and I would have to say this is one of the best welding machines I have ever used.

Great Unit – Awesome little welder for what I need, nice and portable but still powerful and with all the options for future options. Purchased in a kit with all the other bits I need to get the projects done. Still powerful enough to do the bigger stuff too No Problems in recommending this unit Show details

I purchased the Weldclass 180MST specifically for welding thin sheet metal in vehicle restoration, it doesn't come with a 0.6 mm wire feed roller so I had to try it out with 0.8mm wire and even with the 0.8 wire it performed exceptionally well. I didn't set out to buy the bundle pack as I already have everything that it came with however the pack… Read more

is a very good deal and I ended up buying the bundle pack. My only complaint is that the switch on the back of the machine to switch between spool gun and MiG has been installed backwards.

I am not a qualified welder, just a DIY guy, so I spoke with the welding enginner at work sbout what ma hine I should buy. I presented him wkth a few options and ended up buying this machine specifically for the contents in the kit duty cycle and price.

to get it set up to my requirements, but it wasn't extremely difficult for an inexperienced person. Once I had it set up, it was so easy to use. A nice smooth operation ans portable machine. Great for the home handy man or professional who needs a portable machine. Seems quite robust quality compared to a lot of the cheap options available. Very happy with my purchase, warranty provisions and info provided with the machine, and available from the manufacturer online.

Over the years I have purchased many mig welders of different well known brands and my latest purchase of a Weldclass Force 180 MST is by far the best welder I have used. The Weldclass Force 180 MST is half the weight and size of all competitor welders. I only use gasless .9 mig wire and wire feed never causes any problems . The weldclass has enough grunt to tackle big jobs and it never once overheated due to continuos useage. Show details

We’ve been using the Weldclass 180 welder for several months now, it’s delivered consistent performance with minimal downtime, which is exactly what we need for our business What really sets the Weldclass 180 apart is its durability. This machine has held up exceptionally well under daily use, far outperforming other similar-sized brands we’ve… Read more

used in the past. In our experience, the Weldclass 180 offers superior reliability and value, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to other looking for a tough, dependable MIG welder.

Solid and affordable welder – This welder has been used and abused in a contract fencing business for 3 years, welds smooth and consistently when set right for drill stem and beef rail. Has also been used for heavy repair on chaser bins and implements only overheating a handful of times, understandable with load put on machine. The negative of the welder is the quality of the… Read more

earth clamp and lead having had to replace 3 times now. Would recommend machine but use a heavy earth lead and clamp if tackling larger jobs.

Product i would stand by – As soon as welder turned up i was in to it. Preformed beautifully. Start on thin steel and was amazed how quickly you could dile back the amps and wired feed to achieve a clean weld. Had everything I needed in kit. Excellent product

Heres to creating garden art for years to come – Brought the welder as apart of a kit under recommendation from Welding Course instructor, great package for those who are starting out on their welding journey. Compared warranties and reviews across a range of 'aussie made' machines and this one was a clear winner. Show details

Very easy to use and great machine – I have only just started welding with a mig welder. I have done a small amount of stick welding and I have found the mig very easy to use, the set up is very easy and the quality of the work I’m turning out is great. Looking forward to using it more in the future

Great little machine – Great little machine, heaps of grunt for a small machine and lays a really nice bead using 0.9 Flux core wire. We bought it as a light compact machine for using on building sites, and it has ticked all the boxes for us. Very happy Show details

Excellent welder – The machine was easy to set up with the new gasless wire roll. I selected the correct polarity by easily swapping cables. It had been a while since I’d used a welder, so I wasn’t sure how I’d go. I laid a decent bead, first run - absolutely grinning! The quickstart guide was spot on with the voltage / wire speed settings. Show details

Very Powerful for such a small package – Before buying this unit i compared lots of welders with their Duty cycles and for a 10amp machine this had the most, have used it several times and for such a small package it is very powerful, most impressed. Show details

A Gutsy machine in a small package – I bought this machine as it has a 7 year warranty. So it must be good, right. Well Ive been welding with it for a few hourrs today and I am blown away with how well it welds. It lays down a smooth weld with minimum splatter using gasless wire. The controls are easy to set and no wire burn back issues. Out of all the welders I have ever owned, this one looks like the best one ! Show details

Brilliant little welder – I had been on the lookout for a new compact welder for some time and decided to go with this model. I was quickly impressed with the build quality and easy setup into gasless option. Have completed a couple jobs both in the workshop & on the jobsite (with genset) and have been very impressed with the power and cycle time this provides. Really wish I had upgraded sooner!! Show details
