I like miller but thats me. I havnt welded with the 251 but have welded with the 140, 175, 220, 350P and the big generator with a buz box. I would say get it. I also like to upgrade the whips on them I like the Tregaskiss guns but the miller one work fine. But all and all its a good welder you will love it.

Dude I swear by that machine! Buy it! I have easily 6000 hours under my belt using that welder and you cannot beat it for reliability, simplicity and just a darn good machine. I currently run a $4500.00 350P and other than pulse mode do not get anything better than my old 251.
