I used to own the Warrior 250 MIG until financial struggles required me to sell it. Since then I have had a few machines, none of which came close. The Warrior is by far the best machine out there, and if I had the total amount, I would not hesitate, as I loved my machine. The smoothest, best quality weld money can buy. They can keep those Esabs, Millers and Lincolns. Give me a Warrior any day.
