When I bought mine I looked for convenience of getting the stuff that I would either run out of or I would break. I will only use the welder for my trucks and small jobs around the house and family or friends. They are a wonderful tool and I am loved by a greater circle of people. So, I bought a Lincoln from the big box store. The only time I have to drive a distance for is gas. I think there should be a better distribution of welding gas for backyard, shade tree, mechanic people like me. That is my opinion.
