milermatic 252

ive been wanting to upgrade from my hobard handler 140 for a while and found a milermatic 252 for 2k and i think i can cut a few bucks off that and the best part is that it looks like it wasn't used much. has anyone here used it and will it be a good upgrade over my handler?

heard from a few guys that its likely one of the most difficult one to handle and is ranked the least by most. Too many complaints too basically

well.....I don't know man, I think its a pretty good upgrade, can handle long term use and has more power, up to 250amps

@theark well, theMillermatic 252 generally got positive reviews. My friend has one of these, he like its power, versatility, and ease of use. I tried it before, I think it's a good choice for both professional and hobbyist welders

The Millermatic 252 is definitely a nice step up from the Hobart Handler 140.It has more power,a better duty cycle,and is great for working with thicker metals. If you find one that's barely used and at a decent price,I'd say go for it.Just remembre,it's larger and heavier than the Hobart

That's a fantastic find. Moving from a Hobart Handler 140 to a Millermatic 252 is a huge step up, and getting one that's barely used for $2,000 is a great deal. Yes, this will be an excellent upgrade for you! Do it!
