I bought an inexpensive Clarke a few years ago, and couldn't weld a thing with it. It would spit and sputter, and just didn't work well. The first time I tried a Hobart Handler, I created a nearly perfect weld. You can get a hobart 135 for less than the Clarke on the Eastwood sight, and although the Clarke may be OK, I know you can't go wrong with the Hobart. The Handler 135 is $380 at Harbor Freight. Add a tank and regulator, and you'll be into it for under $500. I've seen them cheaper than $380 too.

Also, unless you really need the higher current, you may be happier with a 125V system because you can take it anywhere and use it.
