FYI, I do very light personal work, and I have done fine with my hobart MIG 140. Its a very good machine, and as far as I can tell, has surpassed its ratings.
In retrospect, I should have gotten the hobart 180, which is 220V, but I also like the fact that my unit can be thrown into my trunk, and plugged in almost anywhere (with enough amperage of course).
