I deliberated a bunch but ended up getting an Rtech one

I really like it,this is my first tho so i also have nothing to compare it to. However it is easy to use and works great, no issues at all. Has a 3 year warranty as well. The customer service was also really good, by this point i have spent a significant amount at rtech and no complaints, occasionally had to ring them and couldnt be more helpful. Overall pretty chuffed with it. It didnt come with a pedal tho, which is vital, i also got a new torch as the stock one was clunky as anything.
So while the welder is £500 ish, there was another few hundred in torch/pedal/gear/consumables etc. These should be considered for sure as they make up a significant expense as well
