Do any forum members have real world experience with these hand-held portable stick welders? Looks pretty handy for small repairs and fabrication.

Thank you.

MiG welders are dirt cheap now, if you have to plug that in anyways you’re better off with a small MIG

I agree with the above post. And i see problem trying to use that thing in tight spaces. I have been stick welding since 1979 and there have been plenty of times where just the standard electrode holder gets in the way. AND on top of that I'm sure in some cases it will also block the welders vision of you weld.
