OTC tig welder

[Fabc8tor]

I have never heard of otc and was wondering if they make good welders? I found a otc cpcv-350 tig welder for $1000 bucks. It comes with a wire feeder to. Wish i had a pic of it. What do you guys think?

If you like Japanese stuff, go with OTC... From my experience, their customer service sucks, and their sales guys aren't all that great either.

For $1000, it may be worth it though...but I'd look inside the case and see if it's all dusty, like it's never been blown out or taken care of. I wouldn't count on much support for it if it does fail after you get it.
