I have only had my 170 MIG for about a week but am so far very happy with it. When I was looking for a new welder I had narrowed the choice down to Warrior and one other. I phoned them up to check a few details and they were so helpful and friendly I ordered on the spot! The machine is not flashy but very well-built and comes with quality accessories, e.g., the earth lead is thick and heavy (25mm2) and the clamp is massive. Good quality regulators and so on. This is the smallest welder Warrior make but it is clearly built for serious work – more than good enough for me! The ability to phone the company and talk to the actual people who built my machine is fantastic.
