Hobart Handler 140 Mig Welder 115 Volt 140 Amp
The Hobart Handler 140 Mig Welder is a great welder for many reasons. First, the price is more than reasonable. Dirt cheap in fact for what you get. It’s highly portable, and you’ll find the set up of it to be simple as anything you’ve ever done in your shop or in your garage, and taking it down is even easier.

It will make the first time welder feel like they’ve been welding for years! It welds quarter inch steel with a flaw. But you can use it on anything you can think of when it comes to welding or fixing things around the house, shop, or farm.
You’ll l find this Hobart Handler 140 Mig Welder to be an exceptional machine for welding thin metals. So if you have a bigger mig welder that is hard to handle on thin metals, this is your perfect side kick. But it can also weld the bigger stuff too!
Right out of the gate it will make great looking, solid welds. A nice feature is the power and feed setting s on the cover of the machine which will help you adjust to your task at hand.
Bonus: You will get a free welding cart with this purchase. That is a really sweet little deal and something you shouldn’t pass up because there is only one other 140 mig welder that compares to this one (the Lincoln), and you won’t get this gift if you order it (but it too is a great welder).
The Hobart 140 Mig Welder is the perfect welder for a novice.
But it’s a great addition to any shop who wants something that works well on thin metals, and already has a bigger machine at hand (or if the bigger one goes down you can get this one up and running without a hitch). This little welder can perform almost as well or just as well in many cases, as the bigger (‘better’) mig welders.
I guarantee your welder buddies will be amazed at the quality of the welds that this little machine will produce, even if you’ve just started welding for the first time, and even if you just working out of your garage.
Since it is a smaller mig welder, 115 volts, you’ll probably have to do multiple passes on quarter inch metal or thicker. But for 115 volts it has a ton of power! You will see…
The Hobart Handler 140 Mig Welder does not come with a gas tank so if you are going to be doing a lot of welding, including welding aluminum you should consider including a gas tank with it.
Fortunately this welder comes with the necessary fittings for the tank so you won’t need to buy anything further in that regard (it comes with a regulator, hose, a switch.
Hobart put a lot of effort into producing a killer mig welder, and on top of all that you will discover that the owner’s manual is well put together as well. Doesn’t sound like much but you’ll want to read it because it explains just about everything you’ll need to know, including maintenance and how to weld.
So whether you are doing small crafts or you need to weld a chassis or repair the frame of your jeep or car, this welder will do it all, and it will do it all well.
