Century mig welders - some models and information. Century MIG welders
are commonly available at large home improvement shops I've used their AC/DC arc
welder and was impressed with its cost/performance.
Century makes a good welder, although it has a less than stellar reputation
in some quarters. I used one at a technical school, and found it to be a steady
and reliable mig welder. While parts availability in some locales can be an
issue for Century mig welders, with the advent of the internet, it is relatively
easy to find Century mig welder parts and components.
One person said, "I've owned a Century 90 amp MIG welder for 4 or 5 years
now. Never a problem with the unit and I've put three large reels of 0.024" wire
through it. The one time I thought I had a problem the people at Century were
very helpful. Century may not be one of the "big three" but they have been
around for a very long time."
